Playing with PSElements 7

I had some fun today, playing with Photoshop Elements 7. Before I do too much teaching, I've got to learn how to use it, right?

Well, one of the coolest tools in Photoshop is the Liquefy tool ... and whaddya know, it's in PSE7 too! So, I played with myself a bit today. I took a pic of me, or really, just part of a pic, actually. The rest of this image shows the color-chart we were shooting with me to check the color balance of our studio lights. Very boring, but necessary at times. This, however, was fun to do, and very easy to just add swirls to the image. You can use Liquefy to slenderize people or things, to um ... fat-enize? ... things, or play like I did. This tool is found under the menu item Filter -> Distort -> Liquefy.

This is too much fun! Check back soon for the first of the new series of video tutorials on this wonderful too, PSE7.
