I got a new toy !!!

[SilverVeil]

I just got PhotoShop 6 !!!

And as happy as I am to have it, I have no clue how to use it.

Can anyone give me a helping hand ? I would really appreciate it.

Phew...

that's rather a big toolbox than a toy...
Way to complex to explain here...

But try whatever you might find interesting, you won't break it...

I agree with TB, that is an amazing program. Just start playing and have some fun. You can also do a Google search and I'm sure you will find some links to a few sites that will help you.

Toolbar

The tool bar is your most usefull tool or auctly its a grouping of tools. the best way i have found to learn is jsut creat a blank document and start with the basic paint tools and jsut try them to see what they do.

Thanks for replying. What I was hoping for was to learn how to import a pic and learn to resize it to use here.

SilverVeil, I've been using PS5.5 for resizing. Just open the file, then on the menu go to Image | Image Size and adjust the largest number to 150 (or smaller if appropriate). Then just save it.

You can also color correct anything... endless things, too much to go into as a tb123 said.

(edit: I assumed you wanted an AV? Thats the 150)

I'm learning how to do this too. This is what I'v learn so far. With ANY photo program you should be able to open it, then go to file (while in this program) and pull that picture you want to post. Then (I think) you can go to image at the top. In this toolbar you should have an option to reduce the picture size without losing any of the picture.
not much help but should give you an idea.
