NEW TUTORIAL:

This tutorial will soon be "replaced" by a set of videos on YouTube. I'll leave this one up here, but the new tutorials will go much more in depth and I'll also be talking techniques, etc.


[link] (Pen Tool Tutorial) by :iconpopo-licious: It covers a bit of lineart too. I have a tutorial on that but here but I don't cover the technique she explains as in depth.

[link] (Actions Panel Tutorial - Youtube) It was the clearest explanation I found. Sadly he's using a Mac and two not so good looking photos, but the explanation is very good.

[link] (Another Actions Tutorial - Youtube) Explained well but you can't really tell if the Action made any difference with the photo he was using.

[link] (Tutorial on Layer Masks - Youtube) It doesn't cover everything, because I still don't know what the last icon in the tools menu is, but it covers what I use masks for usually. The tutorial also covers some keys and useful shortcuts that
I rarely use. The one thing I don't like is the disgusting picture of a mouth, but I'll find another video soon.
NOTE: You should learn this though if you're interested in using Adjustment Layers a lot since they work the same way.

Spelling Errors: Sorry, but I will get them fixed as soon as I get all my files organized on my new computer.

Please comment or fave, (or if you're feeling like a dare-devil suggest it for a DD) I'd really like more people to know the full extent of Photoshop's tools and help beginners get off on the right foot :)

Awesome tutorial! Extremely helpful and easy to follow!
I like how you've added humour in areas too, to lighten it up :)

Thanks, I'm glad it was easy to follow, I feared it wouldn't, sometimes I'm not to good at explaining things. Also thanks for the favorites.

I know the feeling. I have the same problem with my tutorials. I've tried to liven it up by adding a 'character' called Mr Smiley, who I demonstrate all the effects on :D

There's only so much you can do to make a tutorial exciting :)

CS5 Extended, I mentioned it in the intro, but as I wrote, you should have the majority of the tools, etc I mention on previous versions as well.

Thanks for making this guide. I've been using PS7 for ages now, and it was pretty overwhelming :P Thanks.

I'm glad it helped. I wanted to help my friends who'd given up the moment they saw all the panels. It's confusing but once you get it, you see the necessity of all the chaos.
