Create a stunning panorama with Photoshop
Connected Photographer Magazine - April 2008
If you ever visit the Grand Canyon, here's a word of warning: It's huge! Like many of nature's wonders, it's too vast to be captured with just your standard digital camera. But with a little Photoshop voodoo, you can capture it all. In this helpful article, Jorge Sosa shows you how to use the Photomerge feature of Photoshop to create wonderful panoramas.


Basic animation using Photoshop
Connected Photographer Magazine - August 2007
Last month Dianah McDonald talked about time-lapse photography in "Tips for using still cameras to take time-lapse pictures". The example she used was in the form of an animated GIF. The same effect could be achieved using Flash, but for ease of creation, size, and compatibility she prefers the animated GIF. There are lots of programs available to turn your photos into GIFs. The general idea is the same, but, in this article, she demonstrates the specifics in Adobe Photoshop CS3.


Creating watermarks with Microsoft Paint
Connected Photographer Magazine - May 2007
You might like the idea of having your photos appreciated and used by other people, but wouldn't you like to know who's using them or have some way to be sure other people realize those photos are your work? Microsoft Paint isn't the most versatile photo program, but it has the benefit of being included with Windows. You can easily use it to enter text onto an image so that makes it perfect for adding a quick watermark. Pick a photo, fire up Paint and we'll give it a try!

Creating interesting textures from scrap pictures
Connected Photographer Magazine - March 2004
Every so often, I want a text to use as a backdrop for some project. Here at ZATZ, I'll often need a background for our cover images on the home pages of the magazines. While you could buy texture CDs from a variety of vendors, sometimes it's fun to create your own out of your own pictures and a few simple filters. This article shows you how.


Placing a logo on an irregular surface with displacement maps
Connected Photographer Magazine - March 2004
We're going to purposely distort one image to make it fit on another. Our goal is simple: we want to put the Connected Photographer logo on a jacket, making it look like it was silk screened onto the jacket originally. This technique, which makes use of a technique called displacement maps, is ideal for any situation where you want an image to conform to an irregular surface.
