Eu Shez Hot

[Socialreject123]

OMG Thank you!

[ATCowboy]

Excellent tut. Thankyou. Others have described this tool but you have really explained it. Keep the goodies coming

[pvspiero]

Is this tool available for photoshop CS2? (quick selection tool)

[Riptidee]

@pvspiero no i don't think so.

[HanonVoice]

You're the main way I learn how to do anything on photo-shop! Please keep making tutorials ^^

[sureshgkumar]

since i have learned many things but i did't able to recall it

but ice flow studios help to recall it and to learn many features in it

Thank you for your work to making us to learn

[Z6D4C4]

Part of the wall was still there! Wait! You're not done! >:(

[jrbhbr]

this is the most difficult job to do in Photoshop, but when you get the skill, it becomes a joy!!!

thanks a lot!!

[Angranity]

Thanks for the tutorial, mate. It really helps me out!

Sometimes I make backgrounds of my favorite singer and entertainer, Michael Jackson. Selecting his curly hair is really difficult with the lasso tool, so this really helps me out!

Thank you, one more time! (:

[Griz899]

I tried it with a zebra in a greyish background. Messing a little bit with the comands photoshop selected only the black parts of the zebra. IT made a cool effect : D

thanks for your tutorials they are usefull every time. with or without Zebras.

[evangus]

she has big boobs...

[TheRichiecon]

I tell my parents that I am busy studying, they see "Youtube" and question my word, i show them your videos and without a doubt approved its educational.

My mom said you have a sexy voice too(:

[Miomega122]

@TheRichiecon He does.....

[gurenig]

@TheRichiecon my parents just wont listen to me when ever i tell them im learning photoshop on youtube and i wanna learn so much about it! i love photoshop! and i bet im going to be some sort of graphic designer when i grow up.

[dawgyv72]

The only part that I actually need help on from this you didn't cover. and you pointed your mouse right on it and ignored it....yes, the purple on the bottom part of the picture in her hair. Whats the best way of removing that?

[gurenig]

@dawgyv72 try using the Background Eraser Tool with Tolerence set really low, but dont forget to duplicate the layer that you are working with, so if tou make a huge mistake (that even the History window can't help) you can always go back to the original layer. you cam find an in depth article about the Background Eraser Tool on photoshopessentials(dot)com/ph­oto-editing/background-eraser/

[TheDangerbreed]

Wishes I could do this one...I can't find this Masks thing in the windows section...I'm using Photoshop Cs3

[marinah15]

na-a lol

[SiegMajorFilms]

she looks pissed :D

[radiozoto2006]

I want CS5... pity my PC is so sucky

[itsmatt101]

i love your enthusiasm :D

[MrMichael4c]

Thanks, I learned a lot.

[alexiabrittin21]

just use CS5 hahaha.

[thewaba7724]

wow i should check my yt subscriptions more often this really would have helped on my project, ended up just doing the magic wand and trying waaay to hard

[TheFriendlyFriends]

All of these videos are extremely helpful. Not sure why they don't have more views. ps: that girl is smoking :)

[gaywhitekids]

Nice job, covered all basses!

[alddeanov]

i have a question, why does the refine mask dialog box isn't the same like mine? is it because of mine is cs4?

[MAjYQSammi]

@alddeanov Yeah. Everything he showed was one of the upgrades from CS4 to CS5.

[radiozoto2006]

@alddeanov yeah... Photoshop CS5 was used in the example

[SjoerdvdKroon]

Sometimes 'Alt' does not work with the quick selection. Can i still do some parts with another selection tool, even though i used the quick selection tool for the main part of the picture? Many thanks.

[MidnightSeductionxx]

@SjoerdvdKroon Near the top left you can select a quick select minus tool, instead of pressing 'Alt'.

It looks like the quick selection tool, but it has a negative (-).

Try looking for that if 'Alt' doesn't work for you (Just make sure quick select is selected first, or else the icon won't be there)And you can't use another selection tool without having to work with two different selections.

Ie. You can't use the quick selection tool, and then use the lasso tool and have it be only one selection

[Ryuuken24]

I have a question, when drawing, should I use the brush tool set to hard, or soft colors ? I want to give my drawings a hard edge, but add softness to them, but I'm missing something.

[AliseSpears]

And again I've learned something new ;) Thanks man :-D

[natal1711]

Yes! Great video. Don't ever delete your videos from Youtube. They come in handy when I'm using PS.

[Painkill3r4]

I had no idea Photoshop could make masking so easy. Thanks very much for the great tutorial.

[lordalex3]

Photoshop is good but you are amazing!

[doycohamco]

You're amazing. Thank you very much for sharing your skills with us.

[asdfgoogle]

Very impressive! I need to get back into using photoshop!

[staplerjm]

he wasnt asking about "solid" backgrounds. He was asking about sold backgroungs. god

[QueenNyx]

Man! I wish I had CS5! I have CS4 and it seems the Mask pallet has had some major upgrades.

[ratchettie]

1:33 hiccup lol

Nice video man!! :D :D

[RashidulThePlumber]

Who's the girl?

[fwancisBALENCHIA]

is this only for cs5?

[vanessa1495]

You are by far my favorite Photoshop teacher on YouTube! :D

[DistortedV12]

I love Photoshop and I love TutCast

[DistortedV12]

Dude.. your so awesome. Each of your videos should have at least 1 million views!

[TheaL3XiitO1]

[divakaneva]

This method is not working I can't seem to get the hang of it the tool is not working properly for me I don't know

[nelbox81]

What kind of program do you have? Photoshop CS 18? :) Anyway, thx for another great video. I'm going to search for the last PS version

[StarClaudio]

sideboob :D

[divakaneva]

On the Output decontaminate the layer mask option is greyed out on mine

[Sandman2646]

I used to use refine edge alot for this type of project, but after seeing this Im changing my methed lol

thanks a bunch :D

[darkAngelLuna]

wow. very helpful! :)

[divakaneva]

Thanks this is always a tough thing to do and I end up playing for a long time this may be my answer as I been using the background eraser tool which is good but tedious

[Heeroic45]

I'm only in high school, but I take multimedia (photoshop/illustrator)... I honestly learn more from one of your videos than I do in a whole 45 minute class. Great tutorial as always :)

[abandonnez]

I'm not too happy about this video. I tried this is PSCS4, knowing you have CS5, however, it gave me the result of a huge area being transparent in every new document I open! What the hell am I suppose to do? I just freaked out and lost 3 hours of work!

[1z1337]

it's really freaking incredible XD

[vampireAM]

✾◕ ‿ ◕✾

[Tr4pStyLe]

Nice tutorials they help me a lot. Keep it on. I have got a question for. How can i rotate the view of the full project without rotate the flats. So i just want to rotate the view.

[Zonneke]

@Tr4pStyLe You should try the rotate view tool (R) it's hidden under the hand tool.

[Tr4pStyLe]

@Zonneke Thanks mate

[DailyCloud]

i love you seriously!

[NMblindBBC]

Is it your Girl Fraind :D?

[agon29]

[vungtau5]

Thank you for the great tip! By the way, what program were you using to make the screencat?

[raymoralesjr]

You have a great voice and delivery. Thanks for all your help and keep up the good work.

[SDonwerth]

@SDonwerth yes

[RupidFlappo]

@SDonwerth

[kmsptz]

[agon29]

@kmsptz refine edge is not in cs3.

[2ndSonStudio]

sooo helpful!

[Huntereich]

LOVE your videos! They're awesome. But, 2 tips. Try removing the reverb of the audio and using a windscreen helps a ton! Thanks for your videos!

~Huntereich~

[dpxmidisplaylol]

Thanks a lot! Very helpful.

[guitargirlae]

This method has never really worked for me! The smart radius never does a very good job when I use it. :/ I wonder if it's just the user and not the system. lol

[TheEXXpert]

thank you very much. You are the Man!

[Solniadora]

Hey @IceflowStudios are u ok? u sound sick D:

if u need take a rest (:

[iHocker5]

Since I've learned everything from you, people have recognized my Photoshop abilities, and I'd like to give credit to you.

[IceflowStudios]

@iHocker5 Thank you.

[lecogirl]

thanks this was a really good tutorial. very helpful

[SoulTaker1003]

question i always wondered what is the mask layer mask for anyway i never understand it

[Blober112]

Sure this works on Cs5, but anything before that we don't have most of those settings

[abelsincain]

Thank you! Masking hair is a thing I never could do right until now....

[royalconcrete1]

or just buy OnOne Mask Pro. I love that program.

[briella12love]

woahh great :D ur awesome dude :)

[LEE7Haxor]

@Stargate174 gtfo

[Stargate174]

@LEE7Haxor Immature kids! lol. Go to bed before Mama spanks your butt :D

[noelsoong777]

Does this work on CS2?

[buttonsandsmiles]

do you use cs2? i have cs2, will this work on cs2?

[tazman26]

can this only be done with cs5 or is cs4 also a possibility?

[Stafare]

@tazman26 the smart radius features and the improved refine edge features are new in CS5

[oudomkeo]

Nice tutorial :), thanks

[Natalicious132]

amazing. Thank you!!

[REDRUMkostas]

Actually that tutorial was just like a older one about selection and refine edge. Anyway thank you for once again. If someone watch all of your videos he can use photoshop very easily.

[TheSDavies93]

Amazing

[Twinturbo120]

thats awesome

[pimas11]

YOU CAN SKIP ADS NOW?

WHHHHHHHHHA???????

[foldoun]

Dude, you should get salesperson commissions from Adobe... this is the nicest type of promotion they can ask for! And absolutely spiffy tutoring. Keep it awesome!

[Amperik]

Actually, I think there is another easier way how to make a hair selection. Your way looks so difficult.

[foldoun]

@Amperik Care to share?

[XxHitmasterxX]

Wow that was awesome, but it would be great if you make a 2nd part where you get rid of the little area down her ear =D

[cuppajoesugar]

lol NAIRi

[CearaaXD417]

i don't have photoshop, i just like watching these videos :)

[malena79]

Your tutorials are the best!!! Thank you!!!

[ajayonline]

Great Vid...

[TheWaffleUniverse]

These are quite epic.

[AliceNyan]

you're the best.....

[Honxy45]

Your the reason I'm getting better at editing in Photoshop!

Great Tuts! :D

[LuvMeJoice]

I'm new to CS5 and when photoshop selected that one stray strand of hair by itself my jaw literally dropped O.O Now I'm off to try it out. Thanks for this vid!

[Shykaary]

New vid, fuckyea!

[Axol]

Thanks ;D

[BruckThatsMe]

What would you do about that chunk of background between her neck and her hair? You never took it out.

[IceflowStudios]

@BruckThatsMe You can use the same method. Just deselect that chunk before masking.

[sims2lovealot]

thank you very much!!

[TheLucky13robot]

ur toutorials are the best i can understand you clearly and ur very detaled !!!! thank you !!!!!!

[ratmaster4000]

720p now! Woo!

[cometkitty123]

Moo

[MadSupra354]

240p FTW!!!

[x3Heroiinex3]

@MadSupra354 what is ftw ?

[Orgato]

@MadSupra354 It takes a while to render. People never upload videos at 240p, Youtube just puts it at that until it can process all of the higher resolutions.

[xlajimex]

thanks! i was wondering this too

[ronney2211]

omgad no way a vid/tutorial
