Getting Started With a PhotoShop - Using the sponge tool

Using the sponge tool


    The sponge tool subtly changes the color saturation of an area. In Grayscale mode, the tool increases or decreases contrast by moving gray levels away from or toward the middle gray.
To use the sponge tool:
  1. Select the sponge tool .
  2. Do the following in the options bar:
    • Choose a brush and set brush options.
    • Select how to change the color: Saturate to intensify the color's saturation; Desaturate to dilute the color's saturation.
    • Specify the flow for the tool.
  3. Drag over the part of the image you want to modify.
