photoshop tips and tricks you use all the time

I know, there are zillions of lists of these, but lets list some of the useful ones we actually do use everyday)

I like to press "f" - it changes the workspace view. try it, you'll like it :)

"tab" kills all the toolbars to let you just see the image you are working on.
