    Photoshop Quick Selection Tool help please.

    I'm new to Photoshop and I'm trying to figure out how to best use Photoshop's Quick Selection tool. I've watched some videos and I'm not having the kind of success I see in the videos. Sometimes it selects to much sometimes not enough, sometimes totally unpredictable results. Thanks

    So I know you can feather edges of areas you've edited. but what i can't figure out is pretty specific to the photo. So I took a picture of the sunset behind some mountains, with the city underneath. Shot in RAW, 100 ISO, 1/60-1/125 exposure (cant remember), and f/5. so the sky looks perfect...

    I'm tearing my hair trying to figure out how to select one of these bottles.

    I have a project where I'm supposed to select one of these chili bottles, then delete the bottle, make it look as if the bottle is a full bottle of chili with no label (which I'm assuming I'll do using the cloning stamp and healing patch), then I have to design four unique labels and put them...

    Unwanted outline on "lasso'd" and "rotated" selection in new layer

    As a test, open a new file and fill it with all black, then use the lasso tool (with zero feather and no anti-alias checked) to outline a closed area within. Then copy and paste this selection to a new layer. Unclick the background layer so that you can see the new layer is all blank except...

    How do I select _all_ pixels in a layer?

    I've noticed that I get a good flow painting over a textured canvas (blank canvases are not for me) when doing so I work with a brush with the opacity set to about 45 and two layers, the bg textures and the actual image. When I feel I'm done with my sketch I want to exclude the bg layer but...

    Direct selection tool

    I've been told to use the direct selection tool in a lot of the tuts I do. When I try it, all I get is a rectangle marquee that disappears when I un click. It does nothing for me, no lines of any kind. I'm thinking maybe I have to hold down another key to use this. Can you tell me or direct...
