				| The only one I ever really learned from any software is Ctrl S and that's only because a lot of previous experiences have taught me that I will lose hours and hours of hard work if there's a power interruption and the computer doesn't recover properly. Still, good shares! |  |

				| I learned Ctrl+S mainly due to owning a Microsoft enabled computer. "Crash" is an exercise in data management for their operating systems. |  |

				| Cmd+Shift+C - Copy merged (copy all image data from all layers inside selection)
Cmd+U - quickly change hue/saturation/brightness
 Cmd+Alt+Shift+F - find layer by name! (Only in new Photoshops)

				| Few (imho) useful shortcuts that where missing from this list:
 Ctrl + J = Layer via copy - also works with selections
 Ctrl + Shift + J = Layer via cut (Cut selection to a new layer)
 
 Ctrl + E = Merge down or selected layers
 Ctrl + Shift + E = Merge all layers
 Ctrl + Alt + E = Merge selected layers to a new layer
 Ctrl + Shift + Alt = Merge all layers to a new layer
 Ctrl + Shift + V = Paste in place
 
 Ctrl + Alt + I = Image size
 Ctrl + Alt + C = Canvas size
 
 Holding Space during every tool let's you pan like using the hand tool
 Ctrl + Space + Left Click = Zoom in
 Ctrl + Alt + Space + Left Click = Zoom out
 Alt + scrolling = Zoom (Unless you've ticked 'Use scroll wheel to zoom in the preferences menu, then this would actually scroll.)
 
 Using the transform tool (Ctrl + T):
 Hold Shift = Lock proportions
 Hold Alt = Scale from centre
 Holding both also works
 
 Brush tools (Brush, Eraser, Stamp etc.):
 ] = Increase brush size
 [ = Decrease brush size
 Shift + ] = Increase hardness
 Shift + [ = Decrease hardness
 Alt + Left Click = Sample (colour)
 Right Click = Brush panel
 
 CS5 (that's the one I'm sure of, not of the versions before)
 Alt + Right Click & Drag sidewards = Increase (to the right) and decrease (to the left) brush size
 Alt + Right Click & Drag up and down = Increase (downwards) and decrease (upwards) hardness
 
 And that's just leaving out all stuff already mentioned and the ones you'll be able to find easily in the menus out ghehe (and the ones I forgot right now obviously.)

				| Sorry for the double post but for some reason I can't edit my previous:
 CS5 & later was whet I meant to say.
