Great Photoshop Tutorials to turn you into Photoshop master (or geek)

25/01/2010 22:12

Adobe Photoshop is extremely useful, professional and complex program. You can do almost anything with it. But not without understanding the basics, not without taking the time to learn from others, without observing, studying.

Here are some tutorials that helped me, or that have been recommended to me:

  • Learn Photoshop Now - free trial video, then you need to buy the access. Advantage is the complexity of this tutorial, they have all the different versions covered, which is impressive. Video is a great way to learn, and to have a systematic approach as well as a great amount of ways how to search for specific solution is something you will appreciate. Try the free lesson and see if you like it.
  • Adobe original tutorials - believe it or not, Adobe publishes several free of charge tutorials. I really like them - they are not as complex as LPN, but it is a good start and I found it quite useful.
  • You Suck At Photoshop - the funniest tutorial for Photoshop. Ever. Donnie is a (fictional) Photoshop master, who, however, has many other problems. Of course, he tries to solve them using Photoshop, cleaning the carpet or deleting the wedding ring, and generally making you laugh really hard. One of the funniest tutorials ever. Of course, again, you won't find it useful if you are a beginner who wants to learn Photoshop, but they are just fun to watch.
    YouTube - and if you have a very specific question about how to do something in Photoshop and for some reason you don't want to pay for professionally made tutorial, try googling questions like change hair color photoshop tutorial and something will pop up. Unfortunately, these are often videos of poor quality (which I don't mind) and poor understanding of principles of bitmap editing (which is much worse).

If you have any other favorite Photoshop tutorials, I'll be happy to hear form you. I'm always happy to learn new things in Photoshop. I've been playing with Photoshop a lot lately, designing personal cards.
