Can you get certified on any version of photoshop or do you have to start at Photoshop 1.0? Once you're certified does your certificate "expire" ? Do you have to retake a test? If so how often?

an (A)dobe (C)ertified (E)xpert in Photoshop CS or Illustrator CS? If so, how hard are the tests? What do they involve? I checked Adobe's website, but they had a severe case of "more information and pages" than they really needed;
This seems rather prestigous for a Web Developer/Graphic Artist. I think I'd like to have it since it's a simple 1 test per program, whereas Macromedia certifications take approximately 1-3 classes per program certification, and even then, Flash has a "Flash Designer Certification" and "Flash Developer Certification".
Revit Recognizes Dirver version 7, the computer recognizes version 8 and the device manager recognizes version 9.
Windows control the drivers, not Nvidia. The certified driver for this version is 8.
We are planning on upgrading our CAD workstations. At the moment we are having problems (crashing) running Autocad 2014 and Plant 3D in 2014 version. Unfortunately our graphic cards (Quadro 4000) are not listed in the list with certified drivers, so getting any support on this subject is not possible. So currently we are still running AC2013 and it works fine.
For our new workstations we want to be sure all our hardware will be fully compatible (for that reason we only buy 1 first). If I look into the certified drivers list; [URL]....... I can mostly see older cards. When will newer cards/drivers be tested? We would like to re-use our quadro4000 or buy quadro K4000 or K2000. (Actually we were never impressed by the quadro4000, the quadro2000 would probably have been almost just as good at a much lower price.)
There are some questions I have about screen redraw in CS4.
First off screen redraw without GPU acceleration is much slower than in CS3.
In the "advanced options" of the GPU settings there is the option "color matching".
If I turn it off I don`t have the option to softproof anymore. That is turning softproof on or off doesn`t change the colors anymore. If I turn it on, I can softproof again but I get banding in a black to white gradient. Slight, but noticable. To see the diffenrence that the settings make you have to close and open the document again.
Our company is looking for training in Autodesk Civil 3d. We contacted a local re-seller, but unfortunately their quote was higher than our company can absorb at this time with the economy. Is there a public list that has certified trainers in different market areas? We are located about 40 minutes North of the Philadelphia area.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI have both ImageReady and Photoshop but have never got the chance to actually tinker with any of them. Now, however, after seeing how much the programs can do, I really want to go serious with the programs. So I have a bunch of questions:
1. Photoshop, is it a generally easy program to learn?
2. Do you need to buy a book/tutorial or any of that stuff to really handle Photoshop or can you just tinker with the program and in a few months be able to handle it like a pro?
3. How do you add a border to an image using Photoshop?
4. How do you add letter or even a sentence in an image using photoshop?
1/ On a non-English keyboard, some shortcut keys like [, ] and ~ can only be reached through the AltGR tab, and are therefore useless. Is it possible in CS to make one's own shortcuts for brush size etc?
2/ Does the histogram tool live-update when one uses tools like Levels or Curves?
3/ Are we still met by that backwards compatibility popup when we save?
4/ Do the precise pointers for brushes still hide on greyish works, forcing one to press the spacebar to see where the cursor is?
5/ How well is 16 bits really implemented? Case: Can I, in 16 bits in CS, duplicate an RGB image, switch the copy to LAB, copy the lightness channel to the clipboard and paste this in the original in an alpha or a layer mask or on a new layer?
6/ Do all filters work in 16 bits mode, and if third party ones don't, do they still work in PS? Filters like KPT3 (remember the problems with 7), Xaostools, ..
1. How do I make my text into blocks, sort of 3D like (just by having black text color in the back of the existing text)?
2. I want to have mutiple lines in my text field, but everytime I press 'enter', it doesn't indent!
3. If I have a rectangular orange box, how do I make it go from dark orange to light orange (gradient)?
4. Can I turn sharp edges into rounded edges?
5. Is there anywhere where I can choose a border design? Like having dash lines for making my border.
6. How do I achieve the "fold" effect where a corner may be folded (like this example below
7. How do I make my text go diagnal?
I have noticed some annoying things about initial interaction with PS that I wanted some quick feedback on:
* I know PS can not use layered PNG. Is there any tool out there that can convert these to PSD with layers intact? I have a ton of old work that is in that format and will cry if I have to recreate everything.
* I noticed that the select tool is very picky in PS. If I am working on a layer or object, I can not select out of that object to activate another layer or object. I have to confirm changes (annoying pop up) and select the object or layer from the layer panel....EVERY TIME. Is there a way to change this behavior?
* The text tool is defaulted to show in PT. Is there a way to change this to default in pixels? I am using Photoshop for the web in most cases, not print.
* The status bar (bottom left in Mac) can show document dimensions, but it is always in inches. Can I change this to pixels?
1) is there a way to "save for web" only user slices? without the auto slices?
2) is there a way to 'copy' the slices (all of them together) from one file to another?
1: How do I make a key/shortcut for 100% zoom (actual size)
2: Is Photoshop capable of showing boundaries of objects when hovering the mouse over them - so I know which ones will be selected).
With my new Wacom I'm really getting into more experimentation with brushes, which led to several questions I'm hoping you'll help with answers or clarifications.
1. Based on what I've read it appears that I can create any number of brush sets for myself using an existing set as a model. If this is correct then I'm assuming that I can create these setss for most used or any other category? Do I understand this correctly?
2. In creating the new brush set, I think I read that I need to "delete" the brushes in the set but that they will not really be deleted? Is that so or should I make a copy first?
I'm having trouble with an extremely large document and I'm wondering if it can be any smaller.
I need to design a large logo for a billboard ad. The dimensions are about 14'x6' I spoke with the printing company and they weren't all that helpful about DPI & such. The most info I could get was that they print at 150 DPI, and if I wanted to make my image smaller they will scale it up.
Problem is, it's a very elaborate pixel based graphic that I don't want to be distorted when blown up. So, I've been trying to design at the literal dimensions of the sign, and 150 pixels/inch (in CS3). Problem is that I'm getting all kinds of scratch disk errors (even with 250gb free) and extremely long loading times between tasks.
Has anyone printed or designed for something to be printed at a size this large? I've made business cards before and those are always made to spec, 3"x2". I'm not 100% sure I have to follow this same rule. If it were a vector design it would be a lot easier but it unfortunately has to be pixel based.
My PS is starting to get a little out of control and I hope one of you guys can steer me in the right direction with this.
I do quite a bit of stuff in hi rez (300 dpi) switching back and forth between actual pixel view and fit on screen modes. Recently my "fit on screen" mode wants to keep getting bigger and bigger and no longer snaps back to the correct screen size. Does anyone know how I can fix this?
The other question should be pretty simple. I want to change the default blending options. Things like stroke, inner and outter glow color etc.
At the bottom of the document window, the information displayed seems to only be able to show one item, is it possible to show multiple items avoiding clicking on there to cycle through them all to see the information?
Why is my image showing 732K in the document information, but mousing over it while it is closed showing 69K. Am I misunderstanding the file reading size, i.e. 1048 bytes is 1mg?
I'm not well versed in color matching so I use an application called Color Wheel Expert to help me choose matching colors and what not. For awhile I've tried to figure out how I can accomplish the same sort of thing simply using Photshop's color Palette/Picker, but haven't been able to figure it out.
Is there a simple way to determine a color's complement, triad, etc while selecting a color? What about getting 'shades' of a particular color? I know you just add white to get shades, but how do you accomplish that inside the color picker?
I think I fully understand what levels are, and I no longer just mess with the sliders til I get what I want. I know what each does and how to use the ALT key modifyer to detect clipping. But I got some questions about other Photoshop (*choir sings*) features..
I don't understand what these are. Are they like levels for colors? I notice there is a Red, Green and Blue curve adjustment, but I'm not sure what it does and how to read the graph where I put dots and curves on to modify the Color Curve.
I am trying to create a web page with a header similar in shape to the one pictured below. I plan to use PS6/Image Ready to create the background and nav system , then slice it and add text w/tables and html. I've tried using the pen tool to draw the header, but then I can't fill it. Can anyone suggest a good tute or point me in the right direction?

Note that the quick and guided mode are still working.
Expert mode was working fine till about 2 weeks ago, the only updates that have been done to the laptop have been the microsoft auto updates.
OS win 7
Java 7.45
flash player 12 active x
Have done an uninstall and reinstalled, but the issue still remains.
Need to understand what has caused the expert mode enhance options to be unusable.
Installed PSE 11. OS is Win 7. Worked ok a short time then got message "PSE 11 stopped working". I try to open file from Orginizer into Expert Editor and only get a blank screen now. Tried all three ways of opening into Editor. (Works ok in PSE 9). What other info do you need to solve this problem? This is the second time this has happened. The first time I believe it corrected with out any action on my part.
