work with Camera Raw adjustments so I immediately assigned a shortcut to it and it saves me a lot of time. This filter can only be used in RGB mode but there is a trick that will allow you to use it in a CMYK document. If the Smart Objects source is set to RGB, the main document can still be in CMYK color mode.

8. Share on Behance
Behance is a great addition to the Creative Cloud set of services. Once you have an account you can link that to Photoshop and save any of your work directly from Photoshop into your portfolio on Behance. I use this option frequently so I decided to set up a custom shortcut for it, which is similar to saving the file to the desktop (Command/Ctrl + Alt + Shift + S). You can upload your work-in-progress to Behance, as well, and re-upload it at every stage. This will make the whole revision process much faster between you and your client.
