Best place to start? NEVER used PhotoShop.

[CrowDog]

I have Photshop and Ive never used it. (Ive used fireworks...so I have an idea about grahpics.) Where is the best place to start just for playing around with Photoshop?

 

[badxcow]

just search the net for the thousands upon thousands of tutorials. dont do the tutorial just to make thepicture, instead learn the tools and techniques. it'll take a while but the tuts will work fine. also dont be afraid to ask forhelp. ive been photoshopping for about a year and never touched a book, but theres still plenty to learn..good luck

 

[GhettoFob]

are there any particular tutorials that you guys recommend? thanks!

I like how people are allowed to basically admit pirating Adobe stuff here.

I have Photo Shop that I have never used, I got it for a gift, I have not used it so I must have piriated it? pleast note that I saw the smiley/

Someone dropped 400 beans on a gift you haven't used? Either your friends are way more elite than mine, or you need to get a refund and buy yourself a tivo or something. Look, I'm not accusing everyone of being a pirate (nor even CrowDog here), just saying that it's funny how many people claim to legitimately own photoshop but don't seem to have a *manual* and come here for advice. As I've answered people's questions in about 20 different threads on the subject, I figure I might have the right to point that out.

He could have Photoshop LE or something - which doesn't come with a manual.

That's very true, but didn't they stop making LE around version 4.0? I thought Adobe Elements would have caught on more than it has, but evidently the real deal seems to be falling into everyone's laps.

thas funny we all know u pirated ps....


take the advice, go get tuts, I have been using ps for about 3 weeks and my progress is good, then again, I have always been more creative and artistic then the avg. If I would photoshop like that guy for a year, i'm sure he's really good

anyways, some work
