Your Adobe Photoshop questions answered!

slleipnir, karen, and popcorn,
Thanks for the replys, slleipnir I have bookmarked the link you gave me, I think that will help me out, and your right I haven't used it much, the only thing I seem to be able to do in photoshop is resize pictures and I'm not very good at this. If it had not been for popcorn our little angel, well I don't know what I would have done, because my signature was completely out of control. Karen, thanks for telling me about paintshop pro, seems like I have a copy of that here somewhere, I have been around computers along time, and have bought programs, (because of my addition to computers) and not even install them. Sometimes I feel like Lucille Ball on one of her episodes, where she buys about 10 irons, because she found them on sale. I mean I don't even want to buy one iron much less buy 10, but I have the same problem except mine is for software, and I love ebay, you can find anything on ebay, I'm hooked on ebay as well as Pet Talk, yes I am now addicted. Anyway I have found some really good deals on softeware on there, including Office 2000, and of course, I bought Office xp on there, but I haven't even installed it yet. I keep telling myself, how can Office get any better than 2000, so Office xp just sits in my desk lockbox waiting for the moment I decide to install it. So I guess I need to see if I have that program Paint Shop Pro, wasn't it?
Oh, by the way popcorn, you are not lazy, you are busy, forming your life.

I only really use PSP for the animation shop it comes with (if you buy the later versions I believe) but like Karen said, you could use Adobe Image ready. I personally like PSP for animations -_- Other then that, I like photoshop better.

No actually.........I was lazy at that time. Very lazy. Hehehehe

Schlepy, I'm checking out that link you posted, to see if I can learn anything else. Wow, you did a good job on that! Maybe you should become an Adobe PhotoShop teacher. Hehehehe

[slleipnir]

lol That would be neat if I could explain stuff, but I suck at describing things..like if you read the tutorials -_- it makes no sense lol. I need to redo it because I left stuff out. BUT, if you'd like to join my class..-evil grin and takes out ruler slapping it on desk- lol jk

Hey popcorn,
Thats what I told her, I went so far as to call her our teacher. So I guess, we just need to find out exacly when class begins. Of course I am trying some of the things she told me in the post. Hey am I suposed to resize the image first before cropping?? Because I just picked one without resizing and it filled my whole background up??????

Thanks for the info everyone. I've also started to finally learn how to use my adobe photoshop. I only have the 5.0 version though because it came free with my digital camera.

In that case, yeah, I would resize it (Well, you could always make the bg bigger I guess lol)

As for class..hm. I get to assign homework >:]

[trayi52]

We will comply. so give us homework, and if you have get the ruler out, you may need it.

[slleipnir]

Woot! Did that stuff before all make sense?

[trayi52]

Hey slleipnir and Karen,
Look at my avatar, how does it look, first one I have done like that, whats my grade teacher????????

[popcornbird]

Hey, even I don't know how to do those! I never tried! He he he!

I'm not your teacher..........but I give you an A+!!!!

[slleipnir]

Yay, looks great! I'd give you an A

[trayi52]

Thank you girls, willie says with a bow, I know it still needs some work, like filling in those black spaces around some of them. I am still working on that and playing around with the signature in photoshop. The instructions you have given me are great, I guess that will be hit and miss for awhile until I "create" my first one for exibition, Thanks.

I've got photoshop cs(for 30 day anyway) and want to know how you change the color for the pattern stamp tool. I'm going to try and make some really good sigs before my trial period runs out because it will be a long time before I can buy this.
