Is there any hope I wonder.........

Well we have to start somewhere!

[Newbank Lass]

Yes there is!!! Good luck. What version do you have?I have a very old version and have taught myself bits.

[Sgt. Pepper]

Indeed. You can find all sorts of Photoshop tutorials, tips and tricks here:-

I think the title of this book is not very p.c. And I don't think you are one.

[Rachel]

Made me smile as I was given this book about three years ago and have still failed to open even the first page!!

[Lynne Hart]

Lol, good luck with that, we'll be asking you for advice.

[Sarah Lawson]

Think I could use that too!

[Henk-Jan]

Good luck, but it will take some time. Lightroom is a lot easier. As for this photo, start with the "adjusting the while balance" chapter ;)

[Milanie]

I know a book like that is what I need - There's so much more I know that program can do other than the few things I've figured out (best so far is getting rid of power lines or occasional limbs in the body of the bird)

[PhylM-S]

Ha ha! Let me know how you like the book... I was debating on it last night and put it on my wish list!

[Yao RL]

I thought you passed this stage long time ago.

[Joyce]

I'm a beginner with photoshop as well and don't hold out much hope of getting beyond the beginner stage! I've been doing the sandbox challenge on here and it has been great help. You can still do it as it's all there. This was the first lesson http://365project.org/discuss/themes-competitions/24528/365-photoshopan-intro-to-using-layers

[Julia]

Good idea

[Clare Gadsby]

What that book mostly proved to me is that I'm not even as bright as a dummy :)
I'm getting there slowly though - youtube videos are pretty helpful

[Me again]

Oww I also need to learn a lot about Lightroom but in one way or another, I am stuck with it....

[carol white]

Think I need one of those, too!!

[Margaret Brown]

A very handy place to start!!

[Nina Ganci]

Great. Now I know who to ask for advice and help.

[Nicole]

looks like a great place to start ;)

[Rita]

I sent for one too, but mine is Adobe Photoshop Made Easy (is it heck as like) I think I am too old for this I need a seven year old to help :O)

[Stephanie Swift]

I have the one for PSE 11, but now I need this one.
