Favorite PS Tip, Trick or Tool : Ryan O'Donnell is my favorite Photoshop tool - Ask him anything and he tells me how.

Artist? I'm not an artist! I'm... a... carnivore. I feed on the sweet meats of furry woodland animals. You want art? Beef Jerky, now there's an art. Wait, engineering major, that's what I am, yeah....
Favorite PS Tip, Trick or Tool : The layer auto select tool and the vast amount of hot keys. Can't go wrong with hot keys.
