Use the Mixer Brush tool to fill a single brush with multiple paint colors, and then blend the paint colors with the underlying canvas colors to achieve results that rival traditional painting media. Or use a dry brush to blend a photograph’s colors and produce beautiful painterly results. Fine-tune your work by controlling how wet the canvas is, whether and how quickly the brush refills or cleans after each brush stroke, and the mixing proportions of paint color to canvas color.

Fluid vector painting with Illustrator CS5 You don’t have to sacrifice the editability and scalability of vectors in order to enjoy the expressiveness of painting. Paint freely in Illustrator CS5 with the vector-based Bristle Brush to produce lifelike brush strokes. Create a new Bristle Brush, choosing from ten brush shapes ranging from round point to flat fan. Then use settings for size, bristle length, bristle density, bristle thickness, paint opacity, and stiffness to fashion exactly the brush you want.

More timesaving features in Photoshop CS5 Extended See Adobe Photoshop CS5/ Photoshop CS5 Extended What’s New to learn more about these and other new productivity features: • Use Content-Aware Fill to remove any object or image detail and automatically fill in the space left behind with lighting, tone, and noise that match the surrounding area—so it looks as if the removed content never existed. • Use Puppet Warp to quickly and precisely reposition or warp any image element.

Beautiful strokes with Illustrator CS5 Whether you’re designing a complex infographic or a simple icon, finessing the details of strokes is an essential task. Illustrator CS5 includes several powerful features that make working with strokes more precise and flexible. • Variable-width strokes. Create strokes with variable widths that you can adjust quickly and smoothly at any point, symmetrically or along either side.

More efficient CSS-based design with Dreamweaver CS5 If you’re an aspiring or novice web designer who prefers designing pages to writing code, you’ll appreciate CSS Inspect. CSS Inspect lets you lay out web pages based on Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) more easily—without diving into code or using additional software. For designers who are new to web design or who want to deepen their knowledge of CSS, CSS Inspect makes it much easier to learn about and work with CSS-based web pages.
