Marvel’s Agents of SHIELD season 6 gets a fresh poster, along with photos that highlight some of the new characters. The ABC show has been off for nearly a year now, but will return just two weeks after Avengers: Endgame changed the Marvel Cinematic Universe forever.

[youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UrlsnQ32YhY] Software-maker Adobe posted an interesting video on its Photoshop channel through YouTube. The clip showcases content-aware move, which is one of the new features in the upcoming Photoshop CS6 update. Similar to content-aware fill in Photoshop CS5 that replaces the missing pixels behind removed image elements, the new feature lets you define a region and move it around with the background replacing automatically.
