    Your tutorials are incredible! I will be honest and say that as an architecture student I've been a bit hesitant to rely on Photoshop as a main solution to visualization problems. However, you've helped me understand concepts in Photoshop that you CAN'T GET looking at one of the many "ArchViz Photoshop tutorial" where they put 100 effects and everything is done at 4x speed. Thank you for your hard work and you deserve all the best! :)

    Hello, Unmesh! Have not watched the video yet, but the title alone reminded me that PC parts are limited these days and a lot of folk are learning Photoshop on slower machines from home. I would love a compiled guide on how to optimise Photoshop for older machines (especially for art-related stuff with many layers). You have done these in the past and I will get around to watching them, but just like the Curves adjustment layer, there's always something to tweak! And as always, thanks for the pro lessons!

    Great video! I would also like to recommend saving images as TIFF, not PSD. TIFF is able to store all of the Photoshop data such as layers, smart objects, etc. while also providing additional compression methods. With compression enabled, I typically find that TIFF files are sound half the size of PSD. Give it a try!

  • @jirikalacek6300

    Hi Razes, thank you for all your videos. It is always inspiring to watch them. At this case I would spread your 10 tips to dozen - 11) delete your working channels, if there are any; 12) check bit depth of your file (bits per channel) - in most cases 8 is enough.

  • @HR-wd6cw

    Another tip is if you don't need to duplicate a layer (and can accomplish something with simply a new layer) create a new blank layer instead. I know in some tutorials by others they tell you to duplicate layers for some things (I do generally create a copy of the background layer in many cases as a base starting point to go back to in case I do something wrong but otherwise try to avoid duplicating layers if I don't need to, as this does add to file size, especially if you have a large file, say from a 40-50MP camera).
    As mentioned, the question is what you are willing to use to save space. What I usually do is when I think an image is "done" I usually make a few backups of the image (in its full state, with layers and all) and then start to compress it and then keep that compressed version on my primary photo editing drive in case I need to go back to it, but if I need to go back and totally re-do something i can go back to my backups and retrieve the original PSD with all the layers if I Need to. I do wish that Adobe would do away with the 2GB PSD limit though, as I find in some cases, I have to save as a TIFF if the file happens to exceed 2GB. Doesn't happen often as most of my files end up being 1GB or less (mainly if I'm doing HDR or exposure blending of high-res photos) but it would be nice because I think the PSD file format is a bit more efficient than TIFF.

    Two simple things I always do that also help are creating a top layer that is only white and turn it on before saving and reducing the canvas size (not image size!) to something small before saving. Weird, but works. I think it has something to do with the thumbnail preview... which I could care less about because I'm good with file naming conventions.
