Not Easter Eggs in the strictist sense, Merlins are found throughout PhotoShop. |
Merlin Silhouettes |
Francis (I was told that if you type other names, other dog pictures would show up, but I could only get this one.) |
Quotes on the Space Monkey Screen- There are tons of them. I took screen shots of 3.  |

Part 2:
Create and save a couple of new files with different colored backgrounds.
Post a screenshot of a zoomed in image.
Play around with either the Brush or Eraser Tool. Draw a small flower or something...go wild, play with the settings. Use the Save for Web function and save a copy of it in both jpg AND gif format to compare them.

My flowers- jpeg image. |
My flowers- gif image. |
I don't see a difference in the pictures, probably because of the size and the fact that the color pallete is limited. There is a difference in the file size, 31k for the jpeg image and 45k for the gif. I really find that surprising, since gif files are usually smaller. I think it is because of the limited color pallete; I could use a very low quality jpeg- thus the low file size. |
