how to get started?

[Dunkelfierg]

I just want to get into all that graphics stuff, with the signatures and art and such. I know nothing at all about this stuff other than you use Photoshop. All i need is someone to point me in the right direction. Could someone link me a guide or something to get started with photoshop? and some links to free photoshop maybe?

look up some tutorials online

YouTube and forums are a good way to find tutorials

Could you guys link me to a good one?

 

 

 

 

Or preferably someone who is experienced with all this and started up using some type of guide, link me to something actually helpful please. I could go ahead and look up tutorials online but I don't really know where to start from. So that doesn't really help, I don't know anything about photoshop. I wanna be able to create banners and such.

I'll take care of you as long as you show progress and interest :P

This is a good start but most people stop pretty quick.

As I've stated before, I know very little about photoshop though, so if thats the program you choose to use, I can give you examples, but you will have to find your own tutorials.

I feel like the best way is to just mess around with the options. You'll find out what looks nice together and then you just go from there. I also find guys for specific things such as glossy text, glowing effect backgrounds, magic type effect, looking those up on google can really further your repertoire.

Download Cinema 4D and Photoshop and just play around with it. Look up youtube guides on how to use the programs etc
