Hey guys,

I know there are millions of PhotoShop tutorials out there but I'm looking for one that serves and absolute, and I mean absolute beginner.

All the tutorials I've found with Google so far so far keep asking me to do stuff that I then spend 30 minutes looking up how to do.

My end goal is to be able to design my own WordPress themes.

    Lynda.com. It's $25 for a regular 1-month subscription. You can easily finish the basic courses on Photoshop in a month.

      If you want a free video tutorials, just search video to youtube and I think videosurf have it as well. Lynda.Com is a good source also but you must pay for it but the advantage is, you can watch video there step by step so you will learn it from basics to advance.

    Have you heard of the TotalTraining suite? They're just fantastic.

    Google it. That's how I learned to use Dreamweaver and Photoshop.

    I still don't have photoshop and I'm ust getting started in web design. I've been using Paint.net and seems to work very well for a free service. I was wondering if anyone has used it and what limitations it may have with regards to web design?

      I also recommend Lynda for learning the basics. Nicely laid out and doesn't cost very much as another poster mentioned. I've never seen PsdTuts before but I am going to check them out.

      After you go through the basics and if you want to get into creating minisites I HIGHLY recommend minisitegraphicssecrets.com by Nicolaas Theron. I learned so much from this site. Not only on minisite creation but on blending techniques, colors, transparency, etc. I think it might even be good for a beginner to Photoshop.

    I also prefer to use Lynda.The guidance is much better than the other tutorials.We are freshers. So, better guidance is required.It also made the teaching very easy.Now I just love to work with Photo Shop.
