Subject: [photoshop-beginners] Hello

Hello fellow Photoshoppers, my name is Felicia and I'm not really new to Photoshop. For years I used Paint Shop Pro and thought I would try Photoshop. I installed it and never looked back. Now I do have some personal issues so everyone knows right off the bat that I'm not annoying on purpose, lol. I have Multiple Sclerosis and I have not worked in almost 10 years. I love photography and that is how I got my semi-professional camera. Since I will take pictures of anything, I want to learn some photo manipulating and things of that nature. I have already got the photo retouching and restoration down to a science so manipulating shouldn't be that hard. Now if I could get some willing human beings so I don't have to stalk every single stock photo site known to man, I'll be in business. I just have a really hard time understanding things as I progress, but luckily I use to use Paint Shop Pro so after 7 years of using that, I decided to leap to Photoshop and I never looked back. Right now, I'm having an issue with that refine edge thing. It took me a week to get it right and I still don't know what I'm doing. Everyone tutorials seem to always leave something out and they all do things different. One person put a step in that NO ONE uses. That does not make it any easier. O.k. enough blabbling let me get back to finding a tutorial and stock photo I can practice on. Bye.
