Shortcuts for Tools in Photoshop
Using the tool shortcuts to quickly switch between tools can save you a huge amount of time. This is one of the first things I memorized that really helped cut my production time down. To switch between the different tools within groups, click the Shift key and then the letter.
For example click Shift G to toggle between the Gradient tool and Paint Bucket.
