Adobe Photoshop is a raster graphics editor developed and published by Adobe Inc. for Windows and macOS. It was originally created in 1987 by Thomas and John Knoll. Since then, the software has become the most used tool for professional digital art, especially in raster graphics editing. The software's name is often colloquially used as a verb (e.g. "to photoshop an image", "photoshopping", and "photoshop contest")[6] although Adobe discourages such use.[7]
Photoshop and derivatives such as Photoshopped (or just Shopped) have become verbs that are sometimes used to refer to images edited by Photoshop,[34] or any image manipulation program. The same happens not only in English but as the Portuguese Wikipedia entry for image manipulation attests, even in that language, with the trademark being followed by the Portuguese verb termination -ar, yielding the word "photoshopar" (to photoshop). Such derivatives are discouraged by Adobe[7] because, in order to maintain validity and protect the trademark from becoming generic, trademarks must be used as proper nouns.[citation needed]

Many thanks for your response. I'm actually running Windows so will look to see if I can roll back the video card drivers - although I last updated the Nvidia driver in the middle of April and this issue only started a week ago so if it was a driver bug I would have expected it to occur as soon as the latest driver was installed? Also I still have PS 6 installed so I guess I can fire it up to see if I get the same issue.
Thanks for your response - I will certainly check out your recommendations. However since this issue is affecting several people, some running Windows and others Macs and all with different video cards etc. I think it is unlikely to be down to my individual system. In addition I have fired up PS6 on the same computer and I cannot get the problem to occur, so again this leads me to thinking that there is some conflict/bug between PS CC(2014) and the video driver. All my drivers are upto date. The latest Nvidia driver was installed mid April and this issue only started 7 days ago - I would have thought if there was an issue with this latest driver it should have manifested itself as soon as the driver was installed.
Thanks for taking the time to respond - it's reassuring to find that you guys at Adobe are now taking a look at this issue. If you take a look at the forum there are now at least three discussions ongoing regarding this problem on bot Macs and Window computers so it seems not to be an isolated occurance. It also does seem to only have started since the last update of PS (22 April). Before that update everything worked perfectly on my system as it has done since I signed up to the Adobe Photography programme 15 minths ago.
I have experienced these issues too which started for me after the latest update to CC14. I have had a large white rectangle appear on the image that goes away once the image and photoshop are closed and reopened. The white rectangle would sometimes change to black when I increased the zoom level. I have also had camera raw loose all text words like 'exposure, whites, blacks, shadows, highlights, etc but the sliders for these things still remained visible and slidable. I have seen the white rectangle not only partially cover the image in photoshop but in camera raw as well. The issue was fairly random for me and would not always occur. It didn't seem to be effected by file size as it was occurring on images that were only 50 MB and I typically work on images that are much larger.
As mysteriously as these problems started, they went away after 2 days and I have not had a reoccurrence in 3 days. I never changed my settings for 'Use Open CL' or changed the drawing mode and am currently using the settings that are most likely to tax the video card. (I may try changing them if the problem reoccurs.) I also still have enable flick panning, use animated zoom and load extensions enabled which I may change if these problems reoccur.
I tested your theory and can confirm that when 'Use Graphics Processor' is checked for camera raw, it caused problems that didn't occur when it was unchecked. I opened a NEF file in Adobe Camera Raw with Use Graphics Processor checked and all the text for words like 'clarity', 'exposure',etc. disappeared when I started moving the sliders. See screenshot. I clicked 'Open Object' and after it opened in Photoshop, a white square showed up on this file and all the other files that were already open in Photoshop when I started zooming. The white square sometimes changed to a black square when I zoomed. I looked at my preferences for ACR and it said "Graphics processor acceleration has been deactivated due to an error." I changed my preferences for ACR so graphics processor acceleration was unchecked and the next time I opened ACR, the text for words on the basics page looked normal and the white or black squares did not appear in photoshop when I changed the zoom level.
I think that I too am only having problems with the white squares issue when graphics acceleration is checked for ACR. I normally have graphics acceleration checked in photoshop preferences > performance and everything is checked in Advanced settings and these settings don't seem to be causing any problems.
It is good to have a general idea of where everything is, so that you can work your way around the Photoshop interface. To get started, I will list some terminology, and where you can find it in Photoshop.
Let's get started so you can see how I use Procreate in my workflow. One of the first things I like to do is set up my brushes. Now, if you're importing brushes or creating your own (more on that later), you might notice that the pressure sensitivity feels off. You have to press REALLY hard to get anything.
Marco Cheatham (01:11): Now we're inside procreate. So this is an illustration I did a little while ago. We're going to refine it and color, block it in, take it into Photoshop and put any final details on it in there. Let's get started. So I assume you guys are probably a little bit familiar with the program, so I won't go too far in depth with this, but essentially you have your brushes here. The brushes that have the little icons on it on the left are the brushes that come standard inside procreate and the brushes that are up farther that have the little like sketch or whatever you want to call it. Brush stroke. Those are the ones that have been installed or created by me. And they all have their own groups, have many brushes within them. When I get started on a project, I like to create a group and add the brushes in there that I'm working on, on the project.
Marco Cheatham (06:35): Cool. Another thing, when you want to move stuff around, a lot of times people want to NAB, you can't see this, but navigate within the box, but when something's really small and you try to do that, it's really hard. So the easy fix it, that, which is what you should be doing is just have your cursor outside of the box and move it around that way. And then you don't have a problem. It could be as small as you want it. So that was something that I struggle with a while. So hopefully that helps alleviate any problems with that. So, all right, well, let's get started with, actually we turn the smoothing down a little bit. So 35 let's get into actually refining this. So I'm going to go there this and start refining the sketch.
I created a website through ProPhoto to showcase my work, and I immediately set up some bridal shoots to start a portfolio. Then I started receiving more inquiries. I shot my very first wedding with absolutely no second-shooting experience and I was terrified. The couple was very happy with the photos, but if I could go back I would have shadowed at least one photographer first.
For highly competitive industries on the internet, such as auto parts, a company can really make their images stand out from the crowds, and make their site more appealing than competitors. Simple photoshop techniques can make even the most boring of images have a little more pop.
When we started our online journey we did not have a clue about coding or building web pages, probably just like you.
All we wanted to do is create a website for our offline business, but the daunting task wasn't a breeze. After months and years of trying out CMS's and different website creators, we became experts in creating these, and wanted to share our knowledge with the world using this site.
