Have you ever used an app like Lensa? Feed it a bunch of selfies and it generates a handful of AI portraits. Which are flattering, to be sure, but they're hardly impeccable. In fact, they can be riddled with flaws. All of which you can fix using the copious retouching tools in Photoshop.
Here is where you can download the asset for Deke's Impressions of Impressionism video from Patreon, even if you're not (yet) a patron.

grumpy aren’t we?
There is the 1988 classic “Nightmare on My Street” by the inimitable (okay, they beg for imitation) DJ Jazzy Jeff & the Fresh Prince (a.k.a., Will Smith). Scary on several levels.
Your, ehm, friendly exchange also highlights the fact that you can take a screenshot from your iPhone (press the Sleep button and the Home button at the same time).
Who’s who?
For the trolls slogging through the pre-iPhone era, who’s on the left and who on the right?
Based on what I’ve gleaned from Martini Hours, I’d give green to Mr. Pumpkinhead, no?
Nope, I’m the green one trying to write a book
Photoshop Elements 8 One-on-One goes to the printer on Monday. This shot was taken from my iPhone. But thanks for thinking that Deke’s the grumpy, profane one.
Won’t be grumpy starting Monday
Thanks for the suggestion Mchil, I’ll pass it on to Deke. ;-).
This is actually a sequel to an original conversation I posted some months back, in which we discussed that very thing. (As well as how to turn on caps lock so you could yell at someone who was annoying you with silly questions that they could just as easily google themselves and leave you alone to finish your part of a book in their beloved one-on-one series.)

Congrats
On getting the book to print. Long time coming. It must feel so good to get it finished.
Trouble changing keyboard shortcuts
I’m trying to follow the direx on page xx of the preface on the InDesign CS4 book, and I can’t change the keyboard preferences on my imac for F9, F10 and F11. Using snow leopard. Suggestions on what to do if I can’t change them?
Problem also with fonts
The CS4 Content disk I have does not have Bernhard Modern Standard, which you instruct to add to fonts for lessons. Will you suggest an alternative?
Thanks, Jeremy
Just uploaded my reprocessed versions of all 487 figures. That doesn’t count the ones that are made up of separate components. It looks beautiful though. All in David’s hands and off to the printer tomorrow.

D-90 WILL NOT OPEN IN BRIDGE DOWNLOADER. IT OPENS CS4 ONLY. THE D-90 WOULD ONLY OPEN IN ACROBAT 6 DOWNLOADER BUT THEIR SOLUTION WAS TO DE-INSTALL ACROBAT. NOW IT JUST GOES TO CS4. ANY IDEAS. ADOBE CANT HELP.
