Would YOU Hire this Mexican?
I'm definitely "geeking out"!
This weekend I hit the java-enhanced Barnes & Noble at Tanglewood, and bought "How To Cheat In Photoshop". I gave the panicked lady at the register 60 bucks to pay for my $50 book. She asked me if I had the discount card, to which I shook my head no.
"You can save -" "No. Thank you." (Just give me my friggin' change!)
I'm sure if I was carelessly wealthy I'd want to invest a lump sum into the privilege of getting 10% off my purchases at Barnes & Noble. What a crock. Why don't you just give me the card, and keep knocking 10% off my purchases until the discounts have paid for the card itself? Okay? Would that be alright? Hmmm? I didn't think so.
Back to my book...
I bought this book and I'd wanted to get my hands on it since I first saw it about a month ago. Because of this book, I've REdiscovered Photoshop, and now I have to tear myself away from my notebook computer, my computer tablet, and the dozens of manipulated images I've made.
Now you can add "Photoshop geek" to my long list of technical specialties. Here,... I'll do it.

If you can understand the concept of layers, then you've got it easy. It took me forever to understand how layers worked, and why you needed them when you worked on an image. But it seems everything revolves around that. And if you don't wanna blow all that money on a good Photoshop book, the public library has half a dozen books on learning, working with and mastering Photoshop.
