Adobe Photoshop is a very powerful and versatile program. The possible uses range from removing red-eye on family photos to creating lightsaber effects. There are so many tools and effects available to the user! But Photoshop's strength is also its weakness. Having so many features (for over $600 it ought to have lots of features) can cause bewilderment for new users (and even experienced ones!). Fortunately there are plenty of helpful tutorials to be found that can illuminate the method of creating whatever effect you want. Below are a few websites worth visiting if you want learn how to use this impressive software. If Photoshop CS5 is too expensive, then Photoshop Elements is a good alternative. It has many of the same features but wears a much friendlier price tag.
If photoshop is to expensive, Gimp is a great free alternative. I've used it for years now and it's almost as powerful as photoshop.
ReplyDeleteYes it is! Thanks for suggesting it. For anybody who is interested, here's a link to the Gimp homepage. I actually have both Gimp and Photoshop on my computer.
