"Photo Shop Express is a registered trade mark of Adobe systems Incorporated and I'm in no way affiliated with Adobe systems Incorporated. In this lesson I'm going to be teaching you about some of the effects available to you and the editing suite of Photo Shop Express. I'm going to go ahead and select a picture and click on edit photo. It's going to take me to my editing suite. Over on the left at the bottom it says effects. Under there it says the first one is pop color. I'm going to click there. And it's going to give you your Eye Dropper. If I click on a color, what it's going to do is just going to show me that color. Everything else is going to be black and white. And then at the top what I can do is I can come in and change that color that it's just showing to whatever color I want. I'm going to change it to a green. So as you can see its' just showing the color of the wall and I'll change that to green. And I'm going to go ahead and uncheck that. You can also change the Hue of a picture if I click on Hue. I've got some options up here. I can change there and I can drag the slider for incremental values as well. Go ahead and uncheck that. You can also click on black and white. That's just going to make your picture gray scale. And you've got a couple of settings here. That's going to change the exposure. And also if you click on tint, it's going to basically make your photo black and white and just add tint of whatever color you select to your photo. Below that you've got sketch that's just going to add kind of sketch filter to your photo and you've got settings here as well. And you can adjust the slider incrementally there to get it to look how you want it. I'm going to go ahead and uncheck that as well. Below that you've got distort if you click there. You've got some setting of up here on the top left. You've got five different settings. You've got a twirl kind of bulge and a soften as well. And you can adjust the amount as well. I'm going to click on the one that it looks like it bulges. And I'm going to go ahead down here at the bottom and drag a circle out. And when I let go, it's going to make that. It's going to stretch out where I have that circle around. And like I said you've got some sliders up here at the top. And it's going to adjust that in real time as well. And I'm going to go ahead and uncheck that. Above that you've also got you can sharpen your picture as well by clicking on sharpen. And selecting how much you want to sharpen it. And you can also add a soft focus. So that's some of the effects available to you in Photo Shop express."
