The sequel to Photomanipulation 101: Basic Techniques. This is probably the last of the "basic" tutorials, with more advanced stuff to follow (maybe I can get a few "guest lecturers?") :)

This tutorial covers simple, quick and easy proportion adjustments (good for fixing the "fish eye" effects of small-aperture lenses), as well as basic instructions for cutting images out of their backgrounds. Special attention is given to "knocking out" and rebuilding hair in stock photos.

Stay tuned for advanced topic such as blending, weathering, and grunge effects (and whatever else I can come up with!)

EDIT: Also check out 's tutorial here, and while you're at it, give his gallery a well-deserved look!

oooh nice. I have a simple cut out tutorial in my main account, but this is much more detailed. I'm going to have to study it, because I have trouble with HAIR!

Hair is more tedious than difficult, I think. Which is why it's so darn hard to do... ^^;

I really ought to go through all of the =stock-salon members' tutorials, and see if we can put together a "Photomanipulator's Crash Course" where people can go and look up tutorials by program and subject.

Yep, like I need another project to work on... :lmao:

Sounds like fun. I always want to make more tutorials, but never have the time and energy to do them. I have this huge Adobe Illustrator course book and CD sitting here looking at me that I haven't even started

The extract tool works rather well too, it just takes a little patience, as all background knockout methods. I've had good experiances with hair using it. Just a thought.

Beautiful job-- excellent use of photoshop tools. And, oh, yes, that is quite a good photo! The change of scenery makes the model seem that much better too...

I liked it very, very much.
