Power Cloning
Retouchers live and die by the ability to clone, and CS3 delivers some cool new tricks. It now has controls for changing the scale, rotation, and offset of the cloned target, and you can create up to five presets for cloning options. Instead of working on your image sight unseen, the clone source can be overlaid on top of your image as you paint, so you can predict exactly what will be applied at any given moment. If the overlay gets in the way, set it to vanish when you're actively painting.
Say good-bye to cloning in the dark with Show Overlay.
