Does anyone know a good tutorial for using PS cs2? Id like to try designing clothes and tattoos but dont even know where to begin. I did find one but I was lost at step 2, must have been for a different version than I have. Please help! lol

i found a nice beginner book at Barnes and Nobles for $10
it is in the series "in easy steps" they have um on all sorts of stuff
so far it has helped me a great deal with the basics

Be forewarned, the learning curve is rather steep, not because photoshop is poorly written, but because image manipulation may be the hardest task you have done on a computer.

Chip Midnight has also made widely acclaimed, free templates for SL clothes design but you should probably get your feet wet in basic photoshop first.

Thanks for all your help but I think maybe I was a bit misunderstood, I am looking for a tutorial on how to make clothes for SL and also tattoos. Ive got the jist of photoshop, plus it came with a really good help my friend installed on my comp as well. Id be willing to pay someone to teach me.... I did save those links though for future reference, thanks :)

I have made a few shirts but they were nothing spectacular, just my beginners. I simply put color and added some words.... baby steps.... lol

Well, after much searching and talking to a friend of mine, he put Photoshop 7 on my comp, much easier to use, gave me a bunch of addons for it. I did the tutorials, got the jist of it, made a few really cool things with it. Thanks everyone for your help! :)

I"m a big fan of the Visual Quickstart Guide series (for whatever software & version applicable) as well as the H.O.T. (Hands On Training) series and the WOW! books too.

I have the Visual Quickstart for Photoshop CS at my elbow for when I run into the wall.

I have CS, not CS2, but if you reload yer CS2, I'd be willing to see what's the same on my version, look me up inworld!
