Please read the terms of service before attempting these tutorials
NEW TUTORIALS WILL NOW BE ADDED AT THE TOP OF THE LIST, SO NO MORE WAITING FOR EVERY ONE TO LOAD JUST TO SEE WHAT'S NEW.
These tutorials are intended to teach you concepts and techniques and not just to achieve an end result. What may end up as a sig tag may in fact teach you new ways to use a plug-in, use different layer blend modes, or use tool options.
Some of them may seem quite long and may make you think "I can never finish that, so forget it". What other authors write in one step, I may expand into 3. Please read through them before deciding you want to do them, you may find that you can do something in an easier way.
Sometimes, I give you shortcuts to the end product so keep your eyes out!
