5 New Features in Photoshop CS4

Why you should upgrade to CS4 as soon as possible.

1. Smoother panning and zooming and fluid canvas rotation
This smoother zooming feature will give you much more control as you zoom in and out of your bitmaps. Plus the new rotation feature is very cool and is a huge improvement on the somewhat clumsy rotate image handles.
2.  New Adjustments Panel
This panel contains some of the most commonly used color and tone correction tools. Tools, which Photoshop users use every day such as Levels, Curves and Hue & Saturation are now all located on this single panel.
3. New Masks Panel
This is a very cool new feature. The new Masks Panel is really powerful and it gives you full control over both pixels and vector masks. You can adjust mask density and feathering, easily select noncontiguous objects, and much more. You can still create layer masks in the old fashioned way but this new panel is much more powerful and will make learning masking easier for new users of Photoshop.
4. Content-Aware Scaling
This is my favorite new feature in Photoshop CS4. This new and revolutionary Content-Aware Scaling feature is used when re-sizing images. Users can select an area of an image that you do not want to lose when resizing and Photoshop will protect it, by removing other areas first.
Content-Aware Scaling automatically recognizes skin tones to keep people from being squeezed when you resize an image. So as you resize an image, people in the picture may move closer together or further apart, but they will remain properly proportioned whilst the background changes.
5. Many enhancements
This new feature is really just a whole bunch of cool improvements to existing features in Photoshop CS3.  These include:
1.    Improved color correction with re-engineered Dodge, Burn, and Sponge tools.
2.    Improved auto-blending of images.
3.    New preview feature on the Clone Tool.
4.    Better raw image processing.

Photoshop Training Testimonial
"Michael was again an excellent instructor, as he was in the basic Photoshop course. He obviously knows the program extremely well, and he is wonderful at presenting the material to students of varying degrees of competence in the same class room. I would definitely take other courses with him."
Bob Kazin -
Photoshop Training Testimonial
"This was the best and most informative Photoshop class I have ever taken. Allison did a great job and was very friendly. I would definitely take courses here again!"
Ronda Sanders - Lava World International
Photoshop Training Testimonial
"At first I wasn't sure how the style of learning the lessons would work. I was so used to the book's style of doing little projects...BUT I have to say, Stephanie's 'build upon' style of teaching is simply brilliant! I feel empowered to try to do projects and the book is not so daunting to me now. Great fun!"
Eva Brune - Los Angeles Universal Preschool
Photoshop Training Testimonial
"I enjoyed the "hands-on" technique and the instructor's style of teaching. He was extremely knowledgeable ad approachable. The material was very technical, yet presented in a very "user friendly" manner. I came into the class as a true beginner and I am leaving with information I can use in my employment well in my personal life.
I recommend the class be directly connected to the next level to allow the student to readily apply the initial training information.
The Office Manager was extremely professional, friendly and helpful!"
