I use to really struggle with Photoshop until some Awesome Photoshop Gurus, took me under the wing and thought me some of the inside 'tricks' of the trade. I feel the need to share this new found knowledge with other aspiring artists who are looking to sharpen their skills, learn new tricks or find another method of creating your art. I will attempt to do just that with this site. Check back often as I will add new tutorials as time allows.

Some of the screen shots included within this site were made with Adobe Photoshop 5.5, which I use at home and some with Adobe Photoshop 7.0 which I use at work. My apologies if this causes confusion on your part. All of the Advanced Technique's and Web Graphics were written exclusively with the use of Adobe Photoshop 7.0. Some of the technique's mentioned throughout this site are incompatible with "other" versions of Photoshop, I find it necessary to use/have both versions. I am new to Photoshop 7.0, and have not explored all of the possibilities. I may change the tutorials to reflect Adobe Photoshop 7.0 at a later time. Most if not all of my Graphics require the use of Third Party Plugins, which are sold separately from various vendors. Links Provided throughout the site.
