I also love Alien Skin Eye Candy, and use it a lot in my work, and it blends well with PSP.

Photoshop is great for the print industry, and yes, everyone wanting to do anything serious with graphics needs to learn it. It's like learning Windows NT/2000, even though you may prefer Linux. It's something that just has to be done.

RudeDawg, right on! Our Moni is a PSP girl, too!

hey dont worry i know you werent and I personally prefer psp too but I just cant use it on this course unluckily

Johnny D..

I used Painter on my Mac, many years ago. (I worked at Apple in '84 - '88, and stuck with Mac through '95) Is there a Windows version out now?

I use MS crap now, and play with Linux...

GIMP is also a very cool app...

Tutorials? bah when you are as brilliant as me you don't need them (I Wish)

If you want to look good buy a good scanner remember a good artist borrows, a great artist steals.

Check the Adobe site, they have good tutorials and also, buy that or borrow the WOW book.
Alot of advanced material, tweaking channels, using alpha masking and such. Speacial effects..

If you really wnat to be SUPERB, check out the High paintmastery with Photoshop 5 book.. That one makes your knees go like maracas.. Thoose guys and girls are way beyond good... (Can be disheartening too...)
