Warpe, are you still dabbling in or pursuing work in illustration/comics/art or something?

I watched the video. His comments are amusing, but what do you learn from this?

You need to watch the series. It escalates nicely. And since I have no training in PS beyond what I've discovered by myself, I'm learning some basic stuff at the same time. I've got a Wacom Intuos tablet and Adobe CS3 Master Collection so I'm trying to get reasonably conversant one program at a time, starting with PS. Illustrator is next. Found lots of tutorials online obv.

Cool. Would love to see some more of your work.

Wow, nice. I'm much into page-layout myself.
Total Training has been an invaluable resource, particularly vids by Steve Holmes. But he only did After Effects and Indesign (Photoshop in that series was done by Deke McClelland, people somehow assume he's like Photoshop God, but he sucks at teaching people. While its obvious he knows his stuff, it does not come across easily). Also, look into stuff by Burt Monroy (more likely on Lynda.com).

Total Training never dissapointed me though, so I wholehartedly recommend them to you.

I'm actually taking a program that revolves heavily around this kind of stuff Warpe. You should PM me your email if you want so we can bounce some stuff off each other.
