  4. Janne says:

    That was an easy one :) I scored 100%

  5. 100%, but that was easy peasy. ;)

    Will you make a more in-depth one?

    PS: Dumb layer ftw!

  6. JonnyRobbie says:

    well…87.5%…the mask color always tricks me…I never know if it’s a white or black

  7. Edgar says:

    Lol got the question about Martin wrong because I have no idea who that is.

  8. Dylan Roberson says:

    Yeah it was really easy to get 100%. I’d love to see a quiz with at least 100 questions to Really challenge our knowledge about Photoshop!

    CHALLENGE ACCEPTED!

    Who is Martin?

  10. 21stcn says:

    Um… your quiz is wrong. Just finished the Basix. Tutorial called ‘Part 5: What does A Histogram Tell Us’ and ‘Part 8 Adjustment Layers’.

    Let me quote Martin: ‘With levels you can easily adjust the white and black points in an image …’

    and from Part 8 Adjustment Layers, ‘If we increase the points (on levels) we can always adjust the brightness and contrast using levels.’

    In Fact Martin encourages using levels to work with B/C and doesn’t use the B/C layer to adjust white point in any tutorials.

    So it’s a stupid quiz but at least get it right. Come on!

  11. Thyago Hills says:

    Yes! I scored 100% too guys! ;)

  12. darren says:

    B/C is not at all a way to control the hue or colour temp in your image. It controls brightness and contrast hence the name. Levels/Curves would be the best option.

    Do I get 100% for correcting your questions? Or at very least, for correcting your “teacher” ? Make this ‘Martin’ sit this test please.

  13. Silvana says:

    yeah seriously who’s martin ? :D lol 75%

  14. Elron says:

    87.5%, theres wrong answer on question 1. the currect answer is P.
    so… technicly i got 100% :)

  15. This is a really good idea! you guys should post more quizzes like this! they should also be longer! It really helps to know how much you know! :)
    Thanks!

  16. Anthony says:

    87.5%, got number one wrong. But, overall not bad. ;-)

  17. Saturn5 says:

    “Who is Martin?”
    Seriously? Martin Perhiniak, who recently presented a (now) 29 part tutorial on the “basix” of Photoshop. Now lest I sound all high and mighty, I only scored a 75%. I suppose I should have paid better attention while viewing said videos. lol

  18. Michael Yap says:

    I got 87.5%… white balance is for curves hehe.. This is nice and interactive quiz :D

  19. Damo says:

    “Please take a moment to complete this short 10-question quiz and see how well you were paying attention”

    There are only 8 questions!!!

  20. Danae says:

    I love how seriously some people take these quizes! I knew I would get the Martin one wrong, my data cap doesn’t allow me to watch streaming videos willy-nilly, so I often miss out on the tutorials that are solely video.

    Fun quiz, though!

  21. jelee says:

    I scored 87.5 %!!!!

  22. i too scored 80+ %……..Hmmm not bad…….Thanks

  23. Clay says:
