We start with a look at which types of layers we can transform in Photoshop, and why its best to convert images to smart objects before you transform them. Then we cover the basic Transform options by learning how to scale and rotate images.

Before Photoshop CC 2019 came along, the Free Transform box included a Reference Point in the center. I show you how to bring back the Reference Point, and why the Reference Point is such a powerful feature.

From there, we move on to Photoshop's Skew, Distort and Perspective commands, including the handy keyboard shortcuts you need to know. And then we tackle Photoshop's Warp mode. I show you how to create custom image warps, and how to select and edit preset warp shapes!

Finally, I show you how to get more impressive results from Photoshop's Rotate and Flip commands, including how to create a 4-way mirror image effect!
