There are a lot of cool ways to learn programs like Photoshop. It may in class with someone like us and for many instructor led classes are the best way. You can learn a lot of information that is relevant to your industry, your projects, and so on. Other ways are with online tutorials or services like Lynda.com.

However most can do a tutorial and get a match or close to the end product but it doesn't really test what you have learned. Ah, so enter the contest. There are thousands of them out and I will list others along the way but one nice selection of different contests, all on one site can be found at:

Well worth checking out. Oh, one other not on contests. When you are looking for inspiration give one a whirl. You might it was "time well wasted".

All, for this one. Remember, your hair will fall out when your dead. Quit pulling it out now. Enjoy life, have fun!

Adobe Fun, is dedicated to just that, having fun with any or all your Adobe products. Maybe it is a cool tutorial, an image you came across almost anything but nothing illicit. This is a family site. Save those for other sites.

Thank you!
