Advice for a semi-beginner

[rocT]

Hello , I saw this forum when I was rushing through the internet in search of the ultimate tutorial to make me a photoshop Guru, and this is one of the best sites I found. I see people are nice to eachother (thats quite hard to find on the internet, with angry teenagers picking their noses and playing computer games). So since people are nice to eachother, I thought I could get some assistant in Photoshop. I was wondering on what tutorials is good for a intermediate photoshop "artist" ? And how did you guys get so good? I made myself a site for a year ago www.bildearkiv.tk its in norwegianshocked: if you are offended by erotic pictures then DO NOT ENTER THE PLACE WHERE IT SAYS "DAMER" ) but if people can just see how the things are and look at my first page and give me some response that would be great, Sorry for long message ;\

Welcome aboard rocT
I am sure that you will find this place useful and nice. All the teenagers here are picking their noses and playing computer games without being angry

The most important thing is to observe. If you want to make cool graphics look at good examples. Examine them in photoshop (a screen capture could provide useful information). At first try to make replicas and when your skills have improved make your own. If you want to make images of real-life objects look at that object in real life. How does it reflect light, what colour is it, is it shiny or not etc.

You will find some very good tutorials here at PSG. You can find tons of tutorials via Google. I can recommend this site:

I visited your web. I don't like navigation systems that contains of small squares without text. Is it because I use Opera that I don't see nothing at all? It didn't even find any 'damer'

lykke til!
