My daughter attends cyber school. She is taking photoshop as an elective class this semester. The school sent her photoshop elements 7.0. After we installed the software on her school laptop, I installed it on my computer. I wonder how hard it is to teach yourself & use. Anyone experienced with it? Know any sites with good tutorials? The help section in photoshop itself is somewhat confusing to me. I could use my daughter's school book but currently she is using it & I thought I'd do my best to learn it on my own.
Anyone use photoshop?

offlineretiredHi, Dawn, just google for Photoshop-tutorials, there are millions, and it is difficult to decide which is best. I mostly try to understand the German versions - LOL.
This is what my search brings up:

offlineGaming AcolyteYes, ADOBE is German but support in English is just as plentiful. Like Graylox says, singling out one source as being "the best" is not a cut and dry process. Why not start at the source? Other than the PDF help file that's on the CD, you can browse Adobe's links:
--------
http://www.adobe.com/support/photoshopelements/ has some tutorials for Photoshop Elements.
--------
https://www.photoshop.com/ will take you to an online version of the program (registration required).
--------
http://tv.adobe.com/#pd+Photoshop%20Elements has videos about the program.
Also: http://tv.adobe.com/
--------
http://photoshopnews.com/ has background info & updated trivia about Photoshop.
--------
A couple of commercial leads below...
http://www.photoshopelementsuser.com/ :The blurb states that it is "The Only Magazine and Web Site Dedicated Entirely to Adobe Photoshop Elements!"
Your newstand may stock magazines that SPECIALIZE in Photoshop tutorials; e.g. "Photoshop User" or "Photoshop Focus Guide".
Books on the topic are also available for purchase (check Amazon.com; etc.)Posted 2 years ago # -
