Where's the best place to learn how to use Photoshop?
You guys have any good online resources? I recently installed PS 7.0 on my machine and I'd like to use it to start making product brochures.

Photoshop 7.0...
Buy a book in school we used Visual QuickStart Guide, but that might be difficult to find for 7.0.
PRACTICE, Practice, practice
Look into community colleges most offer weekend intro. classes to the public that are only 1-3 weekends depending

Trial and error... just takes time and practice, and a general understanding of pixel based imagery. i would buy a tutorial book from Amazon.com and just follow through it if you want to get up to speed quickly. Also read the customer reviews of the books on amazon's site, they seem to be good advice, i got a solidworks tutorial book off them and it has been great.

Your best bet is go to Barnes & Noble and buy "Classroom in a Book" this is what I use for my students, it is easiest to understand of them all, and it's only $25. The tutorials are all on a CD, loaded with images to use and everything.

Here are a few tutorial sites I found. Some of the tutorials are a little advanced and some are real basic. It beats just painting your name on a white canvas with the airbrush tool. You can also look at the magazine section at barnes and noble next to the photography and art magazines, they have numerous photoshop related magazines with tutorials.

Just got back from BnN with the book. Looks to be fireman-proof so I should be able to read it and make it work.
Thanks for the tip.:D

I'm sure theres a "Dummies Guide to Photoshop" somewhere, not saying your a dummy just giving you an alternative. Good luck.

No Worries, Just go through the first few lessons, then you should be able to skip around wherever you want.
