PhotoShop World

My main goal has been to figure out what's new with CS4 and even what's in the Adobe Master Collection that I have no clue about.

Turns out a lot. I can only come away knowing it can be done with the software and that somewhere in some expensive 'how - to' book, I can figure out how to do it.

Context scaling, Puppet tool, the list goes on. PhotoShop is the first stop 'shop' to do flash, video, video effects, et.al. You start in PhotoShop and then take it to one of the other applications. The going forward orders is for PhotoShop to take on more and more of the other applications' capabilities.

I hope it's not like taking PhotoShop into Flash. That's rough. Image sizes huge, clean selections made in PhotoShop are jagged in Flash, and I can list more.

I now know why the Flash CS4 interface is SO different. Adobe decided it should look more like After Effects. Hello?

However, I need to start working in simple video. And I see the potential. I can't wait to give it a try.

The conference has been well worth the money. I just gotta use all of it to make it worth the company's money.
