Let’s Create Some Grass Brush Details Using Adobe Photoshop!The Grass brush in Photoshop can be used to effectively add grass details to a composition in a randomized - yet controlled - way. We'll discover how to access the Grass brush - which can be a major stumbling block for designers unfamiliar with this brush. We'll also examine the peculiar features of this brush through an examination of Brush Settings. Finally, we'll go ahead and use the Grass brush to add details to a photographic composition to make the scene appear to be more overgrown and unkempt. How to Create this Detail in Photoshop: Loading the Legacy Brushes CollectionThe first item that needs to be addressed is the location of the Grass brush. If you are looking for it within your pre-installed brush collections… you likely will have a hard time finding it - as it is considered a Legacy Brush and that collection of brushes must be loaded first, before you can access the brush.In Photoshop, select the Brush tool and o
Thanks to all who took part in our ‘mystery’ challenge. It is amazing to see the variations explaining what might have happened in the woods.Those who regularly take part in these challenges will know that sometimes we start with an object and sometimes a scene. This week it is the turn of these handcuffs. They are from Adobe 3D assets and were textured in Substance Painter, along with the other objects, then rendered in Blender 3D, before finishing in Photoshop. How will you use the cuffs? Will they appear on someone in your image or will you turn them into something else completely?The “rules”:Use the starter image as at least part of your own image entry. Anything goes, as long as it meets the forum rules on decency, copyright, etc. Anyone, and everyone, is welcome to have a go, whether you are a complete beginner or a Photoshop expert. This is not just for our forum “regulars”. The challenge is not limited to Photoshop. Any Adobe software can be used. There are no prizes apart fro

This happened to me just today; I’m using a Win11 system with the Photoshop icon in the system tray. I noticed it was just a generic page icon, and when I clicked on it I received the following message:“The item’Photoshop.exe’ that this shortcut refers to has been changed or moved, so this shortcut will no longer work properly.Do you want to delete the shortcut?” I checked the folder where Photoshop is supposed to be installed and it was pretty much empty; just a couple leftover folders with no settings folder. So, I assume my shortcuts have been deleted along with Photoshop being uninstalled. None of the other applications in Creative Cloud were affected.I don’t know if this is a bug, or has something to do with the Windows 26h2 update (which I sincerely doubt). I also know other people have been having this happen to them as well, sometimes multiple times. My subscription is paid and I’m logged onto my Adobe account -- I’m wondering at this point what I’m paying for as this is obviou
Hi everyone,I am designing vector graphics and icon assets in Illustrator to use inside responsive web containers and custom sidebar widgets.When I export my artwork using File > Export > Export for Screens (SVG format) and embed it into my website, there is noticeable empty padding/whitespace around the graphics that messes up the alignment and container spacing.I've tried tweaking the artboard dimensions, but the exported SVG still retains extra padding inside the bounding box on the web page.Is there a specific setting in Illustrator's SVG Export Options (like CSS properties, Responsive settings, or ViewBox parameters) that ensures the artboard trims tightly around the artwork without extra margins?Any advice on the best workflow for web-ready SVG exports would be greatly appreciated!
When I want to use the "export layers to files" function in Photoshop, there's always a prefix of the layer number sequence. For example, I'll export a number of layers (to pngs) and the prefix is _0001, _0002, _0003... I don't think this feature necessary in most cases. I already removed the standard 'File Name Prefix' in this dialog box. But, that doesn't hold true after export. Is there a way to quickly remove this default script? Or if not possible, is there any recommendations on advance 'file renaming tools' like GREP in InDesign?
Engraving portraits on CNC machines requires a separate plugin with features such as: spotted stone texture overlay; engraving preview; layers with different frequency channels of engraving points, for ease of retouching. And of course, the AI function for creating portrait models.
My computer does not meet the system requirements for newer versions of Photoshop, and I am unable to upgrade it at present. I previously had Photoshop 21/22 installed through my Adobe subscription, and it was working correctly. However, I had to remove the software and am now unable to reinstall it.Could you please assist me in accessing and reinstalling the legacy Photoshop 21/22 version that I was previously entitled to use through my subscription?
Upgraded to PS 27.11.00.None of my saved Actions work. Bridge > Tools > PS > Batch > Action: “OPEN RAW to JPG” opens to a Desktop Folder instead of PS. Manually saved RAW to only option available… jxl .jxl now opens in Preview instead of PS. Don't know how to default to PS.

When I resize a floating window it's like the image follows the movement and sqeezes or stretches.See this video: https://youtube.com/shorts/aWNXhoBzp3I Obviously I've tried the classic tip for fixing every possible problem in Photoshop: reset the preferences. But it didn't work. My GPU is a RTX 5060 8GB and I'm using Windows 11.
I don’t have any other details to report. The error message always appears after the program has apparently closed, which is rather strange. I have not suffered any lost work. It is concerning, though, since I don’t really know what is going on. I would appreciate any help. Thanks.
Changing back to LEGACY Brightness & Contrast involves way too many steps. Please allow the legacy version to exist ALONGSIDE the new LIGHT feature. I can see how Light is beneficial for photo based users, but Brightness & Contrast is especially useful, in it’s traditional format, for design users etc.The workflow of clicking hamburger/legacy/2026 every single time is not at all productive for files that require multiple adjustment layers.(these tools and programs are meant to be an extension of ourselves and adding barriers between us and the tool breaks the seamless user experience).
In the save dialog in photoshop, you can check or uncheck: 'layers', 'as a copy' and some other options. It would be nice if you could also check 'with history', to preserve your history while closing or sending a file. In that way, other people that open your file can see the steps you've made, and you can get back to how you started a year after your project is finished. It takes up some more space of course, maybe the application can show you how much of a difference in MB's it would take.
As an amateur/hobbyist and retired poor person, it'd be so wonderful if there was a basic, more affordable version of Photoshop-only with maybe a few bells and whistles, but with the option to pay per extra bell/whistle. Photography is so important for my mental health, but I really struggle to afford my Adobe subscription. I’m sure other users can relate to this. This has potential to bring in many more users, I'm sure xx
Subscription services are gutting most of us. This year’s renewal will cost the entire profit of one of my two freelance jobs this year. Although new tools and features are nice, I can get by on older versions of the software for a while until I can afford the new version. Maybe once my work really takes off and this is a full time job, a subscription can be baked into the overhead.
Photoshop 27.11.0 on Windows, the Shadows/Highlights tool (Image → Adjustments → Shadows/Highlights) doesn’t preview changes anymore as II move sliders or type in the value boxes. The tool itself works, it applies the change when I click the OK button, but without the preview is it not totally useless but close to.
An older version of Photoshop suddenly stopped printing to any output; printer, PDF, etc. Nothing had changed on the Mac, no new HW or updates. The print dialog allows me to adjust settings as does the Print Settings (see images below). However, once you press “Print” the job just disappears and never spawns the Print Center. I have followed all known solutions for this recurring bug, from the holding spacebar and hovering over File>Print to reinstalling the printer drivers and nothing works. I can print from every other app I use including Adobe Illustrator. Repaired the Mac using Onyx and Clean My Mac and rebooted multiple times but still no solution to this issue.
Environment: OS: Windows 11 64-bit CPU: Intel Core i7-14700K GPU: NVIDIA RTX 2000 Ada Generation Photoshop Version: 27.10 Driver: NVIDIA Studio Driver Issue Description: Immediately after updating to Photoshop v27.10, severe UI and canvas rendering issues began occurring during normal editing. The symptoms include: Rapid flickering where UI elements and the canvas temporarily disappear and instantly reappear (no black or white flashes). When navigating menus (e.g., Preferences), the text briefly vanishes and comes back. While editing, the active photo disappears from the canvas and instantly reappears. The flickering happens extremely fast, rendering the application completely unusable for daily work. This issue is isolated to Photoshop and does not occur in other applications. Troubleshooting Steps Executed: Verified the monitor is connected directly to the NVIDIA GPU, bypassing the Intel iGPU. Forced High Performance GPU assignment for photoshop.exe via Windows 11 G
