LMAO Well at least you got to ordering the book! I am still in that same retarded state of mind that i was when I first opened the program back in '96..."Duh, WTF do I do now?"
(Even worse with Autocad LOL)
I was just as retarded with PSP, as easy as it is, for a while too...it wasn't until I hooked myself up with online tutorials and doing them that I learned how to be creative in it. No amount of reading helped me until I dove in and started playing, now I just have fun.
Here is something someone did in Photoshop that cracked me up I hope you see the same humor in it that I did heh heh heh.
