The Magic of Photoshop Channels - Part One - part 4 of 1 2 3 4

by George Fairbairn Published 10/04/2015

That's it! To see the before and after of the completed effect put your Shadows and your Highlights levels adjustments into a group. To do this select both layers. Select one, hold down shift and click on the other. Now simply hit Command (or Control) and G and Photoshop puts these two layers into a group. Now you can toggle the group on and off to see the before and after.

Using channels as masks for your adjustments is an extremely simple, but effective method of controlling your adjustment. You can use the different channels as masks for any adjustment you make to your images. If you have any questions about this, always feel free to send me an email.

Error:

Error: Can't verify file locking - aborting. Make sure the following has been observed: Unix Servers: rightcolban.cgi is writable by this script If a file locking problem, make sure the directory this script resides in is writable. Note, the directory does not have to be writable for the script to write to files, only for it to create files. File creation is required for proper file locking. Windows NT systems: rightcolban.cgi must be writable and accessible by the script banner.cgi must be able to write to files and create files On some NT systems, the variable near the top of banner.cgi must be set. It is currently set as follows: $main::rightcolban_path = "rightcolban"; Note that under most systems, "." is fine. This specifies that it is set to the current directory. However, some NT systems require the full server path. Contact your system administrator to find the full path to your cgi-bin directory.
