Photoshop CS5 Tip: Selecting Specific Sizes
Want to make a precise selection using the Photoshop Marquee tool, say 300 x 250 px? This brief tutorial show you how:
- Select the Marquee tool
- Up in options bar, select the style drop down menu entitled Normal and select Fixed Size (you can also select Fixed Ratio which will lock in a specific ratio such as 5×7)
- Set you size parameters and make your selection
- Your selection will be locked into that specific size.
Note: You can also add feathering to the edges to soften the selections edge or use the Refine Edge dialogue.

Do Not Disturb: Bath and Body Product Design
This is a product design I created from concept to completion. Do Not Disturb bath and body products:
It’s your body. Pamper it.
The daily burdens of life weigh heavily on your body. Dryness. Cracking. Acne. Left uncared for your skin will rebel causing months of aging to turn into years. Yet life will not slow down.
It keeps hounding you from the moment you wake until your head hits the pillow in exhaustion. Demands at work and home sap the very life from your body, causing you to ask, When will it stop?
Today. Stop the clock. Give your skin the love it deserves. With Do Not Disturb body products you can finally restore your body, recharge your spirit and revitalize your life. Our promise to you is this: We can help you become you again.
So lock the door
Get on something comfortable
Surrender to you
Adobe CS5 Illustrator—3D Mode for Mockups
I personally think that Adobe CS5 was the best upgrade Adobe has released in a number of years. Here is a 3D product mockup using Adobe Illustrator CS5. Quick. Easy. And very versatile.
