Just play around with it. Find tutorials online and do those and take a course if it's available to you. Good luck with it!

I started visiting a few tutorial sites like pixel2life.com photoshopatoms.com and pslover.com. Just start in the beginner sections and follow the tutorials. I like to use my own pictures while I am working. It is like anything in life the more you mess with it, the better you get.

Lynda video courses are really good if you are beginner, good and fast way to get accustomed yourself with all tools and functions in photoshop. Later on you can experiment yourself, try to do some photoshop tutorials

good tutorials was a really good suggestion thanks for that.

I'd follow tutorials if I was a newbeginner with "professional" intentions, if else, I would go with the "play around" mode. It's way more relaxing and pleasant to discover the program, step by step as problems come on the way.

the best way to learn photoshop is to take the tutorials and apply it. ask also some tips and advice on your friends who is a graphic artist or somebody who knows well about photoshop. goodluck

Your best go probably would be the tutorial sites listed on the first page.

http://www.good-tutorials.com/

Good luck.

In my opinion the best way to start learning to use Adobe Photoshop would be to experiment with different tools and stuff. Sooner or later you start developing your own styles. Once you know all the basics you can start looking at tutorials. You'll be a pro in no time

I think you should take admission in any good institute + learn tutorials available on internet.

**cjpunkz** · 12-27-2008, 10:29 AM

just don't hesitate to experiment on it. design some graphics for personal use, or for your friends. as you go along with it, you'll start leaning new things step by step. It would also be helpful to check out some online tutorials to get some tips and tricks in designing.

**brandmantra** · 12-30-2008, 06:28 AM

You should take admission any good institute beside follow the tutorial.

**comofficespace** · 01-15-2009, 11:18 PM

I agree! Lynda tutorials are the best. They explain anything in details, like how the filters work, how you should use them, etc.
Free tutorials sites usually help you with examples of design..but Lynda tutorials will really help you learn Photoshop 100%
