Hi,

I have a problem. I am not very conversant with photoshop but have been asked to learn it. The graphics person that edited our web site pics left and I have been asked to take over. We have a setup that involves Adobe photoshop and illustrator. I know some basics but would like to learn them from scratch and gain an intermediate level of expertise with both programs. I was looking at some books/training courses (total training/lynda etc) that offer to teach you these programs. Would spending some money with these training courses worth it or should I just stick to books like adobe ps cs2 CIB and its illustrator sibling etc. Please comment. Thanks

Yeh the video courses are the quickest way to learn and they take you from knowing nothing, all the way through to very advanced techniques, Both these programs are huge learning curves so videos are well worth the money, especialy if you get the firm to buy them, point out they are tax deductable. Books are good too but much slower than video. If you want to see a master class on video buy Bert Monroys photoshop Videos http://www.bertmonroy.com/

Once you have the basics the internet has lots of tutorial where you can learn anything
