Tutorial List ~ Introduction
The tutorials on this account can be devided into several categories that you will find below. Those categories are:
Translations of the Commands and Tools | Beginners Tutorials | Tools and Techniques | ImageReady/www-related | Text Effects | Photomanipulation | Digital Painting | MiscellaneousFurthermore, the tutorials have been labeled according to the following list to make it easier for you to find what you are looking for:
- B ~ Beginner Tutorials: they explain things in the simplest terms possible for those who just started using Photoshop. Others may learn a thing or two as well, but shouldn't lose patience when reading.
- R ~ Regular Tutorials: To follow these tutorials you should know about the basics in Photoshop, for example where the most common tools can be found, what the options bar is etc.
- G ~ Guides: Guides usually have a certain aspect of the program as their main focus, for example "What are layer masks and how can they be used?", they don't focus on getting a specific outcome.
- W ~ Walkthroughs: this kind of tutorial is meant to provide a "peek over an artist's shoulder" by following th creation of one deviation in particular. Therefore, the focus lies on showing other deviants the process of creation rather than teach specific details. Most walkthroughs do not tell you everything that was involved in creating the piece as for one it would take way too much time to do so and for another artists are usually not interested in seeing duplicates of their works pop up all over the place.
We are restructuring this list at the moment, please be patient until the make-over is complete.
