Hey guys, I'm going to finally try and stare making some sigs + avys myself even though I know I'll suck. Anyone got a good website that has lots of good tutorials showing you how to make different things using CS3?

Scorned · 09-02-2007, 11:31 AM

SavageFreak told me about this...

http://www.pixel2life.com/tutorials/adobe_photoshop/

Have fun, and good luck.

**TeamOverload** · 09-02-2007, 11:58 AM

Cool, thanks a lot. Now to ummm purchase CS3...i was decieved and the copy i...bought...was really only CS1 lol.

Savagefreak · 09-02-2007, 11:59 AM

*hint* *hint*
Seriously... Try torrents.

Scorned · 09-02-2007, 12:00 PM

I downloaded CS2 back when...

I still havent had the urge to upgrade/download.

Photoshop is too expensive, even though it is the sh*t.

Savagefreak · 09-02-2007, 12:05 PM

IMO CS2 is easyer to use then CS3...
Now I hate myself for wasting money for CS3 *cough*.

Torrents are a pain, lol. My internet doesn't like playing nice with them. I may use one later though, or just find a better source.

Anyways, we probably shouldn't stay on the subject of piracy...

I'll try those tutorials out in a bit that you gave me thanks. The one where you make an eyeball looks kinda cool.
-= Double Post =-
Should I just get CS2 then?

Savagefreak · 09-02-2007, 12:06 PM

Hehe,
No prob

And scorned, did you read some of the tutorials yet?

Scorned · 09-02-2007, 12:08 PM

Yes, yes...

I read around like 3 or 4. Learned a bit, this way and that. I still need to read alot more...

Just get CS2 if you can, personally i havent seen a difference. Ive managed to do everything they say on the Tutorials exactly as they say, so...Yeah.

Yes.

**TeamOverload** · 09-02-2007, 12:18 PM

Lol okay purchasing it now.

Most tutorials I've seen out there are for CS2 anyways, not sure if there would be a difference in the way you do things on CS3 or not though.
-= Double Post =-
I've decided I suck at Photoshop and I'm always going to suck at Photoshop.

Scorned · 09-02-2007, 08:15 PM

Wow...

Thats enthusiasm. Care to explain why?

If you want to see how much i sucked, this is the first sig i made:

Trust me, put a little effort and youll get better eventually.

**TeamOverload** · 09-02-2007, 08:32 PM

Haha, I don't know. I just don't seem to think I'll ever seem to get the hang of this stuff. I'm really bad at staying focus when I try and teach my self something.

Scorned · 09-02-2007, 08:34 PM

Lol, right...

**Deturbanator** · 09-02-2007, 08:34 PM

CS3 is 150 times better than cs2 in layout and user friendliness...

if u want tutorials i recommend u join a photoshop forum such as planetrenders and just work learn from the user environment.

BTW photoshop cs2 tutorials are EXACTLY the same as photoshop cs3

**TeamOverload** · 09-02-2007, 08:36 PM

I need a new monitor. Mines too low res to even run CS2 lol. I've had my monitor for yearssss, i'll be buying a new one soon though. Anyone know where I can find a decent LCD flat panel for a good price, preferably white or gray?

**Deturbanator** · 09-02-2007, 08:38 PM

internet/any electronic store in the world

Scorned · 09-02-2007, 08:40 PM

I still dunno if i should get CS3...

I havent seen a real difference.

**Deturbanator** · 09-02-2007, 08:43 PM

there is really no major difference that a basic sig maker user would notice but it loads a hell lot faster, new layout that makes it easier to use and it lost all need for imageready in general which is a big step up.

Scorned · 09-02-2007, 08:48 PM

How would i not notice if it loads faster or if it had a new layout...?

I havent actually used it on a Windows though, just on my friends Mac...

Yeah, well I'm terrible when it comes to Hardware and what's good and what's not. Who wants to find me a decent LCD flat panel monitor in white for like $200 or less or maybe $250 or less tops...

idk how u missed all the obvious changes, and u cannot compare how fast it loads on someone elses computer compared to urs...

Scorned · 09-02-2007, 08:59 PM

Everything loads slower on my computer. I can guarentee that, so its not good to use it on this...

When i said it wasnt very different, i wasnt taking in account the speed. I dunno about the layout, i may not have noticed.

**RoBz** · 09-03-2007, 02:17 PM

Thanks for the site guys I had CS2 for ages and I just recently updated.

If torrents don't cope well with your internet just download the trial from adobe.com and then.... umm buy a key.

**B00TL3GG3R** · 09-03-2007, 02:35 PM

have you looked at http://www.pslover.com/ with 10,276+ photoshop tuts...which I only read about 5 so far though.

Savagefreak · 09-03-2007, 11:30 PM
