I have a little experience with Photoshop CS but not much, is there any DVD's out there which I can view on my television, pause the picture and put into practice via my computer.
I have a dedicated computer room with aforementioned television, and I think this would help me a great deal to move on & experiment more. Any thoughts.:shrug:
 
Cheers: I've tackled some of the YouTube stuff, and the website looks interesting, but a lot chatter before you get to the nitty gritty, so that's that then, nothing for my widescreen tele.:(
 
On quick google search shows quite number of DVD's available... I wont mention any in particular as I have no idea how good any of them are!
 
gazzauk: Cheers for that, I've googled & found 100's of DVD's, but only to play on computers, not stand alone DVD players hooked up to a t.v., a couple links would help!
 
If you have two monitor outputs on your computer graphics card, then get yourself a cheap second monitor. You can then watch and pause the video tutorial on one monitor and practice with photoshop on the other.
Good luck

Have you tired using the pc ones, playing them on screen with photoshop opened and flicking between the two? I tried a few tutorials from Digital Photo magazine cd's this way, and whilst not perfect, was enough to learn a few techniques I wanted and they can be paused at each step.
 
Yv. I'm doing that at the moment, also have 2 computers & 2 monitors so can also do that, but I think being quite a sad person, being up in the house (no computers in sight) I could get some late night viewing & learning subliminally in between catnapping, when all is quiet in the house. In the early days of computing, you could purchase video's on all of the Microsoft office suite, and Operating systems, but now it seems to me, that you have to learn at the puta....................ah well, will keep reading the books and watching the 7-10 minute tutorials, and who knows I might just grasp Layers, layer mask, adjustment layers, merge layers etc,etc.

I also do this using the Digital Photo magazine Cd,s which can be very good on occasions, as Yv said not ideal but works, if you have a laptop you can always view on there and do the work on your PC.

Edit. should read all the posts above :bonk:

Is that as easy as it sounds ? and how do you set up 2 monitors to work separately from the same PC :thinking:
