Played around with it. Best thing to do for sure. You can look up some tutorials to learn certain techniques, to to start with, just play around and see what the different things do....
And anytime you have a question, feel free to ask, not a problem.
I love the brushes, and being able to use layers to do things... makes it soooo much easier.

Thanks for the advice! Can I come to you for pointers if I need them, if that's okay? I want to be able to make banners and icons too. *grins* What is it that you love about Photoshop and how did you learn to use it? Trial and error or actually being taught? What do I love about PS, where do I even begin?! LOL Gotta agree with Cat, having layers is wonderful. One of my fav things to do is blends... That's when you change the opacity of certain layers to give a faded effect. Brushes, are fantastic too Oooh and fonts... I can go on forever but I'll spare your ears, erhm, eyes the pain I learned by trial and error, I think it's more fun that way but I do on occasion Google up tutorials. Feel free to ask questions if you need help and have fun!!!!

Okay so I just wanted to say that I officially finished watching SPD. I LOVED IT!!! It was sooo freaking great.
I had to take a break from watching MMPR Season 3 after Kim left.... I just am having trouble watching it without HER. *sniff* *sniff* Makes Me MAD that she is gone. plus I know what is gonna happen too.
But I totally love SKY and SYD and think they just have such chemistry together and are just HOWT together. Then of course I think Z is great, funny, and just straight forward and I love her. LOL She was awesome.
And on another note I started watching eps of DT.... *TOMMY* lol YUMMY

I have returned from my three day banishment (ala to the damn phone company)......why don't they ever get people in Tech Support that know what the hell they're doing? And why do people who don't know what they're doing treat you like you're stupid, even after you've explained you're studying to do this for a living and just need help from their end to get things done?
Sorry, done with my rant now, really stressed and pissed and I missed everyone. Terra, welcome to the SPD club....now you have to go back and watch the episodes again and disect all the special SS moments....the second time around is almost as special as the first!
WOOT!

I stopped counting after the 6th go through....I'm to the point where I can repeat lines before they even get said....my mother finds it annoying cause I do the same thing with the MMPR movie and HP and the Sorcer's Stone....

That's true! Sometimes I hoped it happened the same way when I was studying.. but well, no Dr. Oliver to ogle so it's pretty hard to concentrate

Same goes for me....though no hot Sky-baby in tight gray pants or blue spandex to ogle....might be why I got 3 A minuses this quarter....*grins*

Okay, this is completely random....I should be in bed, but I can't sleep, so I'm working on my website, trying to get cast pics for Jungle Fury for one of my pages, and I'm searching for a headshot of Sarah Thomson who plays Fran....and guess what I discover? For those of you who watched SPD, remember the episode A-Bridged, where Bridge is playing detective and he's chasing that weird monster lady with the dog? The one where he sniffs the damn dog? That actress is Sarah Thomson. I'm completely blown away by the change a few seasons has made...she was a cool monster on SPD but wow, the different between that character and Fran from JF is just...wow....okay, shutting up now....

Rambling is all good... Yeah, someone pointed that out to me sometime ago and I couldn't believe how different she looked! The magic of hair, make-up and wardrobe.

Yeah, I discovered that shortly after the season started. Can't remember where I read it though... sorry, I should have mentioned that, but I guess I wrongly assumed it was common knowledge and on all the sites. Opps.

Okay... I can't BELIEVE I haven't mentioned this yet but... I saw Theory of a Deadman, live, last Monday and it was the most amazing concert that I have ever been to in my entire (albeit short thus far ) life!!!!! The venue was so kick ass too... It's this small restaurant kind of feel theatre with a dance floor and a stage and it's amazing... I'm definitely going back there to catch another concert... Hopefully soon-ish. Anyhow, if you can go see ToaD live... DO IT! They're amazing!
