Organize
Your Files
Being creative with your work
is one thing, but with complex projects requiring multiple
elements to get up and running, it's nice to see that
Adobe have spent some time tweaking and improving the
management and organization tools of Photoshop.
Organize
Images
If your intranet resources include
several folders of digital pictures-thousands of shots
taken for catalogs, perhaps-and you've ever wasted time
opening one picture and then another trying to find
the one you need.
The File Browser lets you
scan through your images visually, by creating thumbnails
of a whole folder. To open it, select File/Browse from
the pulldown menu. The File Browser is initially in
the palette well in the upper right corner, so you'll
want to drag in into the center of the desktop. Resize
it to offer more coverage. You'll see your folders displaying
in a tree hierarchy in the upper left corner, with the
contents of each folder in the larger page to the right.
Custom Workspaces
We can think of two
good uses for the new ability to create custom workspaces
in Photoshop: one is if you work in a small office and
have to share your computer with someone working a different
shift, and two if you simply want different palette
arrangements for different tasks
