How can I add more than one point when I'm using curves? (must be such a newbie question but I'd love it if you could help me because this tutorial seems great!)
40licks22: Sam&Dean icon[info]skydivingwizard on August 30th, 2007 04:15 pm (UTC)
It's not a newbie question at all. Curves IMO is like the hardest thing to use on PS :)

Well after you make the first point just click on the line again then type your new I and O in the boxes again.

Heres a example:
Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket

As you can see my first post is done and now i have to type in the numbers again for the second post :)

I hope that made sense.
