Thanks Colin, finally you are the person to explain in simple terms how to cut out images from a difficult background. Been looking for this for years. Keep up being a great teacher. Thanks again.
Your approach to do changes in multiple steps instead of everything in one step is very professional and creates a much more precise finish. Impressive.
New to the cafe and I really enjoyed it. The steak to sushi comparison made me giggle. Your delivery is not frantic, easy to understand and quite helpful. I now understand color range better, it's something I seldom use. Thanks...love using the patch tool.
Technique of doing it in several steps is just great. It is so easy to get caught up in attempting to do it all in one step. Thank you so much for this.
Colin ... excellent reference guide for those "impossible" images, but a bit convoluted to get from A to B. Having said that, you explained it very well. My favorite tool in the current PS update is the new Content-Aware Fill tool. Much easier to identify and clean up unwanted pieces. Love your stuff. Thanks for everything.
Thank you for sharing this amazing video! it was so helpful right now when i needed itit , and i know it will be helpful for many projects to come! YOU ARE A LIFESAVER !!1
Thank you! Someties we DO have to take a few more minutes to do things well done! This is a very nice, clear, complete tutorial! Of course I've subscribed to your channel!
I thought I have a deja vu. I knew I have seen this somewhere a longer time ago. Well, it was here on your channel :-), 4 years ago. Always a good thing to see some very great tutorials again, and this is one of these, like a diamond in the rough. So thank you again.
Have just brought the latest Wacom 16 tablet I notice you are working on the tablet and the cursor is coming on the screen can you do a tutorial about how to set up the Wacom for working on the screen and any other tips I have the screen open on my Wacom and get a bit confused about operations really want to work on tablet but have work showing on my computer screen if that makes sense - also there seems to be a bit of lag time when working on tablet love your tutorials cheers Sue
Hi all, I'm good till 18:17... option (mac) and mask keys... it asks if want selection or background, but DOESN't clear it on the original. Help pls? What am I doing wrong? @photoshopCAFE ?
Awesome video! But I'm having one issue currently, I'm on the layer mask and using a black brush to get rid of the selection but its not getting rid of it with one pass, its fading out and takes several passes, I'm using a solid brush with 100% hardness. Any idea what I'm doing wrong? lol. Im using CS4.
I really do not like this salesperson like approach telling us "click on the like button right now" Why are you doing this? I would have pressed the button without this. It seems very rude and desperate. You are obviously talented, but let it be my choice alone if I want to reward you.
Thanks for the feedback, it's very valuable as I'm learning and trying new things. Sadly we are slaves to the youtube algorithm, very good videos get unwatched while average ones are always recommended because of stupid things like likes. Personally I don't care about likes for validation, I just want to help people and I can't help them if YT doesn't show the videos to anyone.
There's no reason that should annoy you at all it's completely fine and without it a lot of people actually forget to like a video like myself, without a reminder.

When in quick mask I get a a double line around the selection. I can't figure out how to change to a single line. Thanks for all your tutorials.
Sounds like you have feather or stroke turned on
This method still has relevance in today's 2022 PS.
