Personalize your bridge!!

Adobe Bridge is one of the feature tools in Photoshop CS3. It is the power browser and also the central hub for all of the creative suite 3 applications. It is able to show all files and folders that are available. Not only for creative suite 3 applications, but also you can use Adobe Bridge as a hub to launch other applications like word or acrobat files. This Photoshop tutorial will discuss about Adobe Bridge. Bridge offers so many ways to search, categorize, adding information, and also the automation for repetitive tasks.

However, you can even maximize the power of Bridge by customizing them. By customizing and also saving your custom Bridge workspace, reviewing and also comparing images will be much more efficient and more fun. By simply clicking the keyboard shortcut Ctrl+Alt+O, you will experience the power of Bridge. The better you are using Bridge, the better you are using the other creative suite applications, including Adobe Photoshop. Here is the tutorial about personalising the Bridge to enhance your Photoshop skill.
