Photoshop CS2 has a new feature called Smart Objects. Smart Objects allow you to alter, transform, and warp your photo, without ruining the original information.
Here, let me explain:
Lets say you transform your object by scaling it down. Then press Enter to set the transformation, in case you havent.
Then you want to re-scale it to the original size. You end up with a blurry, pixelated object, like this:
Now, lets convert our layer into a Smart Object [Layer > Smart Objects > Group Into New Smart Object] or use the Layers palette menu.
Now we scale our object down. Press Enter to set the transformation.
Then, we re-scale the object back to the original size.
And no blurry, pixelated image. This is called non-destructive editing and Photoshop isnt the first to use it, some people may remember a program called Live Picture.
Anyway, lets look at what else we can do with Smart Objects.
Lets duplicate our Smart Object layer with [Ctrl + J], then scale the new layer down.
Double-click on the Layer thumbnail in the Layers palette. You should get a dialog like this:
Click OK, and youll get your object in its own window.
Now you can alter your object in the new window. Well start by adding a Hue/Saturation Adjustment layer and changing the color.
Whoah exciting, huh? Well, hit [Ctrl + S] to save, then click back on your original image.
Holy crap. As soon as you clicked, the images changed.
Now, lets duplicate [Ctrl + J] another layer, and transform it.
Select the Group Into New Smart Object again [Layer > Smart Objects > Group Into New Smart Object]. Then duplicate and transform again. You should now have a total of 4 objects.
Double-click on the Layer thumbnail again, and alter your object.
[Ctrl + S] to save your object, then click back on your original document.
You now end up with two different pairs of objects. Pretty cool, huh? I can see this being a very powerful tool for anybody who does large image compositions.
