Great course, lots of information and don’t take forever to get to it. Appreciate you getting right to the point.
Great tutorial as always .. I’ve been using Photoshop for about 25 years and I always learn something new from Aaron. Brilliant.
Learned a lot in a fairly small amount of time…
I was going crazy in the “Incorporate New Element section when my blacks weren’t black! Not until I really enlarged it a lot did I see the watermark from Adobe stock that was messingeverything up. Warn your people. I spent hours trying to figure out whaat was wrong with my settings!
