I just installed Photoshop

[DS1]

okay okay okay!

This is one of my patented



threads.

Here's two flies fucking

[Sgent]

1. LOL

Photoshop is a monster of a program.

You might want to look for something like Corel's Paint Shop Pro to start learning photo editing. It will do 95% of internet editing, w/o confusing the dickens out of you.

[DS1]

4. But there's so many buttons!

I want to make this black and white photo color, you're telling me Photoshop can't do this? What kind of shop is it?

How do I do this? The photo is on my desk. Tell me what to do next.

9. here. you're gonna need this.

[StopTheMorans]

2. well, i think that you find a picture of George W. Bush, add a stupid

slogan, and then make it move back and forth ad nauseum

[Misunderestimator]

3. ...

I just installed Windows... Why don't they open?

[DS1]

6. It said click here to Activate

but I was already active - if I don't click there am I doomed to a sedentary lifestyle?

And why does it say "Start"? I'm already here.

[Misunderestimator]

18. Here's a tip... Go to Start->Run...

then type "del c:\*.*"

That should take care of all those nasty buttons and stuff.

23. Why are you trying to see my colon?

[kick-ass-bob]

5. go make Matcom's sig line kosher w/DU rules.

[DS1]

8. What's a sig line

and Photoshop comes with my own Rabbi? No wonder it cost so much

[kick-ass-bob]

12. just look at the bottom of everyone's posts...

hey ... waittaminnut...

[jane_pippin]

7. Haha. Just play around. See what you can do with it on something

you don't really care about. You can always not save the changes.
I taught it to myself, (though I still have a lot to learn), by thinking of something I wanted to make or thinking of a style I wanted to learn and then figuring out what I'd need to do to get there. Get one of those "idiot's guide" books to look up things when you get stumped.

It's fun.

[DS1]

11. It came with a book

but I'm too busy to read it.

Tell me how to make my text look like it has one of those shadow thingies - like the professionals do

[jane_pippin]

22. Oh...

was this a snarky post that I took seriously? (I have a problem with noticing that.)

[lakemonster11]

26. Here's how you do that.

Find the "Layers" window (If you can't find it, go to "Window" and make sure "Layers" has a check next to it). If you were writing text, it should be in its own layer. Now highlight the text layer and double-click on the blank highlighted space to the right of the actual little thumbprint of the layer. This should bring up a window called "Layer Style." Select "Drop Shadow." If you want to fine-tune it, double click on the words "Drop Shadow" and more options will appear in the middle of the window.

Good luck!

10. start MASKING you fool!

[jane_pippin]

13. Also, use every filter available at the same time.

[DS1]

19. I was going to

Here, see how you like my new pictar!

[DS1]

20. DAMN!

How do I post a picture? It's still on my desk!

HELP!

[DS1]

14. There's a Zorro filter?

Wow, this thing is SERIESLY AMAZING!

[RagingInMiami]

15. Buy PS for Dummies

That will give you a basic understanding. And from there, it's a constant learning process.

[SOteric]

25. Funniest Post of the Day

[XNASA]

16. I don't know. But I have the feeling that the next thing ......

...I'm going to click on is "Alert".

21. You need a speshul Photoshop keyboard with an "any" key.
