Update 12/09/08: I'm currently 40% done or so with the beginner's photoshop tutorial redex. It's like twice as awesome... I made some things a little clearer and especially focused made it even easier. I've found a lot more tips and hints and things over the years that are much better than the methods here. Of course this one still work, but I did overcomplicated a few things with this and the picture itself bugs me because it's old and not colored very well <<
Continue to enjoy this one for now; I'll let you know when the new one is ready!

Warning: HUGE picture! Make take awhile to load. For very slow computers, I'm sorry!


Yey! Here it is, finally! I've had this tutorial made for awhile but couldn't submit it until Kama got her present (since it uses her picture as an example). I hope you all find it very useful. I've made it as easy to follow as I possibly could and is geared toward beginners who know absolutely nothing about photoshop. This is the first of my tutorial series; I want to do more beginner's guide like animation with Flash and a more advanced photoshop tutorial and a special tutorial that will teach you how to use the "evil pen tool" (because it's REALLY helpful to know) and some other stuff. I donno when I'll be finishing them but look for them eventually k? And I will be re-doing this one to make it even better and easier. Enjoy!
