Can Someone Teach me How To Photoshop

I have lots of ideas that id like to try and id rather not bother people and do it myself, Could u sort of explain in details what do i have to do? Im not really into computer phrases so if u can explain it as easy as possible id appreciate it.

heh.....thats like explaining to someone how to speak french in a few lines of text....riiight...or how bout explaining to someone how to rebuild a transmission or a motor or something......if you want to learn....teach yourself...dont rely on someone else telling you how to do it (pretty sure no one is going to take the time to tell you how to do something...especially when you dont say what you want to do) and go buy a book on photoshop....look online for tutorials...go through the adobe tutorials in the program. You've bugged a lot of people for photoshop requests...now you're bugging everyone to teach you how to use it.

It is too complex to explain, you just have to take a course or teach yourself with a cheaper program. Try Paint Shop Pro, it is shareware and does a lot of what Photo Shop does. Get it from any shareware site. When you master that, then consider going to Photo shop, but you might just like Paint Shope Pro well enough for what you do.

do you have the software? Any Adobe Photoshop from 4.0 up would be adequate, but i use 6.0.

Get it, and just start tinkering around......see what the the tools and the stuff in the menus up top do. Buy a book. Read around on the net for little tricks.

Regardless tho, it does take some tmie to familiarize yourself with it, so just get your hands on it and experiment.

The trouble with Photoshop is its cost. Astronomical

I'm sure it is worth it for a pro but for an average dabbler?

Paint Shop Pro is the answer. Does probably 90% of what Adobe does at a mere fraction of the price.

I found this in an older thread

http://www.digitaltropic.com/tutorials.htm . There are some decent tutorials there too. I'm just starting to learn photoshop myself. Good luck.
