As I know, Photoshop is an excellence graphic design and photo retouch software.

Many Peoples use Photoshop to create excellence graphic for their own web. Including me! :razz:

I design it myself… In a minutes! :grin:

Photoshop skills have become a common phenomena around the blog publisher and Photoshop have become the most reliable Software.

I knew Photoshop 4-5 years ago, introduced by my brother. And together we try to learn it to the deepest.

At that times, we’re still practice our design skills with the Version 6 of Photoshop.photoshop6.jpg

Although it didn’t have features as complex as now, Photoshop 6 was great that at time.

We even happen to put a bad guy’s head onto the dog’s body! Â :twisted: ha-ha!

It’s really fun making graphic creation with photoshop.

I have create many-many graphics from blank document or by combinating pictures and patterns together to get new results.

And not to mention how many graphics I have created, I can claimed myself as a photoshop-freaks! :cool:

I Learn my Photoshop skills mostly from books and Self-Learning DVDs.

I keep buying new books aboutphotoshop-cs3.jpg Photoshop and keep follow the new improvement of Photoshop.

To mention some of them:

  • Cheap and Dirty Tricks to Photoshop
  • Photoshop Bibles (from Photoshop 7 to CS2 )
  • Photoshop for Dummies (I use this dummies book too! easy to understand the new features on every version.)
  • Photoshop 101 Special effects with filters (my favorite one)

I also bought lots of Self-Learning DVDs! I run across many different producer to learn their tips and tricks. Some of them are:
