Lesson 21. The Refresher Course

This is the lesson to reach for when you haven’t used Photoshop in a while. I’m not talking two or three weeks—I mean two or three months. If you really want to save yourself some frustration, turn back to the beginning and read my “The Seven Points are Revealed Right Here!” section, then come back here. If you do that first, this “Refresher Course” will all make sense, and you’ll be back up and running fast (like riding a bike, but one with lots of scary-looking sliders and buttons). There’s also a one-page cheat sheet at the end of this lesson.
