Hi Colin, watching the replay for the second week in a row, having to work on Thursdays. Thanks for all you put into the program.

Hello and thank you for another great LFL. I had to watch the replayed version this time, rather than the live one. For the new segment, how about making it purely composite related and calling it 'compositing corner'?

The tip for Drop Shadow with blend mode was great to learn (in the replay today ...)! My photo buddies lunch overlapped the LFL today - it was fun! Even the waiter was excited to see us after so long. BTW, how about "Bragging Rights!" for the (show & tell) segment you launched today?

I did not make the live stream this week; however, I am watching this replay.

I wanted to fix one tip that I told about. If you select shift + m in the blur gallery, you can see a preview of the effect, and you can adjust the filter. You can also select only the M letter from the keyboard and see the effect but you can't do any adjustments while the preview is active. that's the tip. Sorry Colin for the missunderstanding

In 2014, I published my first book. For part the cover design, I blended a photo of an M21 sniper rifle onto a marked up map of the Mediterranean Sea (can't remember if I used Screen or Multiply). When I printed the completed design out on my printer, it looked perfect. However, when I got my copy of the book from the book printer, I could not only see the edges the M21 photo, but also the edges of the photo of the map (which I had also blended onto the cover design). That is when the light hit the book cover just right. Moral: In some cases when using commercial printing, blending might not be the best design choice. Is Blend-If better? I don't know.

Colin. If you wanted to rotate the bike so that its front tire was more toward the front left of the dock would you use perspective warp?

Thank you Collin, again interesting (:-)

Fairly new to PS. Enjoying your live tips and your tutorials. One problem I encountered is I loaded some of your free actions and accidentally made duplicates. Cannot seem to find how to delete the duplicates. On PS Support it shows to drag it to the trash icon at the bottom of the action window. I don't have this in PS 2021. Any help with this will be appreciated.

Your segment could be called 'Shop my Shot'
