Deke is awesome. Didn't learn too much from this, but loved it anyway!

knownspace

someone needs to cut down on their sugar intake.

That all "i'm a hip 45 year old" ruined it for me. I'd rather google for hours than put up with that.

caedus

sorry, i'm still scared of Photoshop.

I'm a photoshop noob, and the best tip I got from that?
I didn't, too much info in a short time, but it did tell me that everything except ctrl+shift+a does something. Neat.

Phoshi

Man, deke is one crazy fu... person.

I think I maybe caught 3-5 shortcuts I didn't know... not because I knew all 108, but because they went by so fast! Still, it's a new definition of edutainment.

...sorry if this is a dupe. Comment system not liking me today.

conigs

Loving the style ^^ Probably gonna be confusing for new guys though :P

Bobly

"I don't even know what ctrl-shift-A does!"

Love it. Was a little put-off by the old guy rapping vibe though.

nczuma

@cae, He is down with the kids, the top of his field, he doesn't never fail, blah blah blah.
Yeah, the rather perplexing rappy bits were odd. Just gimme photoshop, rap in your own time.

Phoshi

I got like 4 tips from the whole video. But great video anyway.

f0vela

Just when I thought my head ache couldn't get any worse

More helpful than this terrible rock video to the tune of "Popular" by Nada Surf would have been a transcript of everything he said so I can just read it and not deal with the terrible acting/singing.

metalhaze

I'll give it to him--I thought it was really cool.

It's seems more of a marketing piece for his re-launch than anything.

It looks great.

The guy is having fun, not trying to be hip.

And I assure you that it's wrong to attack him for rapping--he ain't rapping.

I *do* blame him for singing, though.

chrislrob

Deke singing? No, no, no, no, no. Don't EVER do that again, Deke.

Shortcuts remembered? ...zero

ObtuseGoose

is he trying to sing? eww.. -_- crap now im late for school.

I'm with metalhaze -- where's the PDF cheatsheet?

ToddZ

Fascinating; but...I use The GIMP.

BruceMagnus

Ehmm does he have a website? (Yes)
And did he make a list on his website?
Because I didn't got the other 100!

elice82

it was all tolerable until he started to sing. This reminds me too much of Scoble's Kindle review...too much attitude, thin on content.

bubuli

Deke, you rock!

DanGookin

So knowing a shortcut is a tip? Here's a tip, how about not ripping off a Nada Surf tune so you can try to fit in with the younguns.

Here's something...

...lay off the filters.

You could also try looking at these vids, they actually explain things:

TheLiarGuy

I guess someone has to fill the void left by Donnie.

adam51172

Deke is Photoshop in human form.

muzicman82

This dude just listed a crap ton of keyboard shortcuts:
dissapointment++;

He put them into a catchy tune:
dissapontment--;

Dom

@PapaGamer: CTRL+SHIFT+A actually does something in The Gimp, it deselects all!

adam51172

AWESOME!!! Been using PhotoShop professionally since version 2 10 years ago and I didn't know half of those shortcuts because I didn't need to. I can make good use out of a half-dozen or so of those on a daily basis (saving only a few seconds).

gopanthers

Ugh. That's worse than being Rick Rolled. Extreme sports meets Photoshop. No thanks.

iheartbeer

That's 101 lame shortcuts, that you can find in the Help.

poboxy

...those aren't tips, he's just reading the keyboard shortcut list.

bleh.

thirdopticaltool

that's awful.

thirdopticaltool

he lost me at "just jump it"

theRIAA

"serious Photoshop enthusiast."

Donny wasn't serious enough? We want Donny back :(

blush_response

Watch out: calling Photoshop "Adobe's premiere product" is an awful turn of phrase. It's a bit confusing, as people might assume you're talking about "Adobe's Premiere product," which is a totally different animal.

starfoxmac

I've long enjoyed Deke's writings leading back to the yonder days of early-90s Macworld, and I thought this video was very entertaining, although the presentation made it difficult to educate.

Like Steve Ballmer, a lot of people wish they could bust out and be free...

Torley

..."esc"?

DoubleFelix

I have his Photoshop CS2 one-one-one book. It's pretty good.

Blaenk Denum

Of course, there's always these: [photojojo.com]

MatthewT

esc!esc! esc! lol

koalasthewise

wow...i really liked that. a lot of info, he's funny. i'm trying to imagine what it would be like to actually know all these shortcuts, how many people know all these?

mahalie

You know, the amazing and unlikely thing about this is, I think you're all right. Except that guy with the ""i'm a hip 45 year old" comment. I'm not the least bit hip. Which was your point. But see, I'm actually 46. (Ouch, that has got to hurt.)
No Dan Gookin, *you* rock. Thanks for inventing something that millions of people benefitted from. That's rare.
Everyone else, thanks!

dekemc

Donnie is back!! TODAY!!

Please have a look at Photoshop How to guide

garmahis

Despite the odd chorus, I must say it's the most engaging presentation of 100+ hotkeys I've ever seen. Not to mention it only took a fraction of the time.

My biggest gripe is that he marketed it as "tips" instead of hotkeys. Either way, I appreciate his creativity.

ken_brueck

Ugh....
I just ghost puked in my mouth...
Thank GOD! he kept the ATTITUDE

redheights

What's the point of this? I mean, it's mildly cool and somewhat amusing but lacks any real value. He might as well fast forward it at x8 speed and get it under one minute, same usefulness to the viewer.
