Although I am a NAPP member, I haven't had a chance to check this out yet. Just ran across it on another site, and thought it may be of interest here.

Scott Kelby's Web-based Photoshop training course

Edited to say: this course is aimed at digital photographers.

In my limited experience, any time I want to know how to do something I plug "__________ photoshop tutorial" into Google and get a bunch of hits. Most of them are freebies, but the combination of basic instruction and experimentation goes pretty far.

Um. The poor kid is 20. If it wasn't a gift from parents or what have you, then he probably spent every dime he had to get it. You never know someone else's circumstances.

Poor kid?

He is full grown.

As are you. So grow up. Making snide remarks implying that someone is a tightwad or lying or what have you is plain childish, not to mention completely heartless.

You don't think that was rude? How is it your place to comment on anyone else's finances? At least that's the impression I get from the question mark, a sort of "huh?" statement as far as I can tell? Eh, whatever. I've made my point, whether or not you get it is out of my hands.
