If you hold down alt WHILE setting an anchor point it allows you ... |

| working in PDF isn't something that i would recommend. Stick with PSD, and if you need to, save to PDF for proofs for the client. |

| "PM ME FOR DETAILS"? Your best bet is to put the details on the post page, and hope for some responses. Asking people to do a favor for you is one thing, asking them to jump through hoops to do you a favor is another. I know personally, there are so many myspace profile editors out there, that desig... |

| what is your available ram showing in the memory usage pane? I'm betting it is more than your 2.5 GBs of physical ram, because you have a paging file setup as well. When your usage in PS goes to 2.3gb, go into the task manager - performance tab, and check out what your commit charge is, and what you... |

| As others said the guitar head is a sore thumb, add a 1px stroke around it and it would stand out a lot more. The white spots seem like you just didn't want to take the time to mask it all the way, or just didn't seem them before you made the transparency color. The top of the letter h gets lost in ... |

| my only real crit (other than the boring backgroud) is the shoulder/arm area. For such a large portion of the picture it just sits there being a boring hunk of meat.

| I know if i unzip directly into the fonts directory it never seems to work correctly. If i unzip to a temp folder, then copy/paste it into the fonts directory it goes through it's little installation, and then i can use it in photoshop. |

| Yeah, you told photoshop to use all your memory, so it is doing just that; using all your memory. Just because you flatten an image doesn't mean that photoshop is going to release the memory. Like bripriuk said - set it to a lower percentage and you will be much happier. |

| why not use a different type of gradient? Like a radial, or a diamond. For another method you could create two layers, one with a left-right gradient, the other with a top-bottom gradient. CTRL+CLICK the thumbnail of the second layer's mask, invert the selection (CTRL+ALT+I) then click on the first ... |
