Quick question: When you use Generative Fill in Photoshop, do you get annoyed when the result is stuck to the background pixels? 🤔

I figured out a workaround that lets you "recycle" a specific layer to get clean, movable cutouts every single time. It saves so much time cleaning up masks.

See how it works: https://youtu.be/FD_J2kURvqY

(P.S. I’m still looking for a better name than "Recycle Layer"—let me know your ideas in the comments!)

Tomorrow’s Fortune Cookie might be the most unhinged one yet…
and this photo pretty much captures my current mental state.

Van Halen.
Bon Jovi.
A fortune that tells me to be patient.
And me yelling PANAMA!! like it’s 1984 all over again.

See you tomorrow, kids.
Bring ear protection. 🍪🤘

📢 Community Post: Photoshop Breakthrough Just Dropped
🚨 I’ve invented a new Photoshop technique—and it’s wild. It’s called the Recycle Layer, and it only works in Photoshop Beta using Nano Banana. This trick lets you place elements behind your subject—no masking, no cutouts, just pure creative control.

Yesterday, we lost a legend. Ace Frehley—guitar hero, Spaceman, and sonic architect of KISS—passed away on October 16, 2025.

I created this image to honor both sides of him: the man behind the shades and the myth behind the makeup. It’s a personal tribute to someone who shaped the sound and spectacle of rock for generations.

One of my favorite Photoshop plugins didn’t survive 2025. Which one do you think I uninstalled?
I’ve used this plugin for 5 years—but in 2025, it’s officially out. Photoshop now does everything it tried to do… and better. Guess which one got the axe 👇

🔥 New Video Drops Soon! 🔥 I’ve updated my list of the Top 4 Photoshop Plugins Worth Paying For in 2025.

One plugin didn’t make the cut this year. After 5 years of use, I’ve officially uninstalled it. Why? Because when Photoshop starts doing what a plugin does—and does it better—there’s no reason to keep paying for it.

The remaining four? Smarter, sharper, and still doing things Photoshop can’t. 📸 If you care about your workflow, you’ll want to see this.

Coming this week to @Photo911. Don’t settle for average—your edits deserve better.
