Hi Terry! Love the podcast!
I have a question, would the patch tool be better to repair textures or would the spot healing brush do just as much functionality?

Another general question, why isn’t the podcast being uploaded in HD in the iTunes Store? I like to view your podcasts in full screen and sometimes get blurry.

Terry, short question, between the patch tool and the healing brush (as Scott Kelby uses in his latest book) for retouching skin “issues. Any thoughts on the advantages of each??

  I use them both. It just depends on what I’m trying to fix as to which one I’ll use. The healing brush is better for smaller things.
