Here are a few things I have learned to do using PhotoShop CS3.
The first two are very simple.
- You open the photo of your choice. This will be your background.
- Then you press Ctrl + J. This will make a copy of the background creating a new layer.
- Press Shift + Ctrl + U to change the color of your copy to black & white.
- Now select your eraser tool and erase the color you want to show up.
The PhotoShop Makeover was a little complicated but I learned how to give myself a nose job, add make-up, and get rid of my double chin. (Yes I do look like a rodeo clown) This one was fun. I used the following web sites to learn how to do this http://www.photoshopessentials.com/photo-editing/nose/ ; http://www.digitalscrapbookplace.com/university/tutorials/tutorials.shtml ; and http://www.brushes.obsidiandawn.com/index.htm for the brushes I used.
The last picture I played with clip art (sheep & butterfly), shapes (clouds), and brushes ( grass).
I am so amazed at all the possibilities you have using this software.
If you use Google to search for free PhotoShop tutorials you will find an abundance of information.
