Welcome to the first post in this new year! Learn how to become the Master of the New Mini Bridge in Adobe Photoshop CS5 with this great video tutorial!

Mini Bridge is a bit like a connection between Photoshop and Bridge, allowing you to view and access images in Bridge without going to Bridge. With Mini Bridge, you can navigate to the folder that contains the images, preview all the images in the folder, and open the ones you want without leaving Photoshop.

Of course, Mini Bridge is not meant as a replacement for the full version of Bridge. There’s many advanced features in Adobe Bridge CS5, like rating and labeling photos and adding them to collections, that are not available in Mini Bridge (at least not yet). But for simply locating, previewing and opening images, the new Mini Bridge is really great! 🙂

Just remember that this is a new feature in Photoshop CS5 so this is CS5 only.

Enjoy! 🙂
