Adobe Says:
Web Developers
Web designers count on Photoshop Extended to help them enhance the photos and create the backgrounds, buttons, and 3D artwork that deliver just the right look for each client’s site.
Fine Art Photographers
With an image-editing toolset that offers unlimited possibilities for creative expression, Photoshop appeals to fine artists who use photography to express their unique perceptions and visions.
Fashion Designers
From humble logo tees to outré runway togs, fashion designs often get their start in Photoshop. Bring in a sketch, adjust line and drape, play with color and texture — and create tomorrow’s must-have looks.
This course will bridge the gap between the introduction of knowing how to use the tools the pros use and doing what everyone else is doing.

I started using Photoshop on version CS4 and I felt so left behind. Now that we are at CS6 I am so glad I got in the game when I did. ITS NEVER TOO LATE! Look up on YouTube "Girl Takes a Terrible Fall During a Race" for a extra push to get started :-)

I am a Gemini and what they say is true- Geminis do have split personalities. For me, one of my personalities is good and the other is even better. I am a web developer by day and graphic designer by night.
How have your skills developed over the years?
Coffee and serious dedication have kept me going over the past few years. I am always looking to learn more and more. I am constantly sharpening and developing my skills by using tools like Lynda, Skillfeed, Udemy and of course YouTube. You can always learn from others in your field. That’s why a website like SkillPages has been needed for a very long time. It’s useful for connecting with other people who share your skill and learning from them.
Do you have any advice/tips for people interested in taking up your skill?
Be aware of all of the resources out there that can help you with your skill and don’t be afraid to try something new. I learned a lot on Code Academy but once I took the leap of faith to use Dreamweaver I haven’t looked back. Now I don’t have to write too much code because the program does a lot of the work for me. As for Photoshop, I learnt 95 per cent of my skills from YouTube. Many of the tools available to you to develop your skill are free so use as many as you can.
Don’t forget what goes around comes back around. I love the recommendations feature on SkillPages and I try to recommend as many people as I can. It’s all about good karma!
