Free Classes

Was it some­one here or some­one on a mail­ing list who men­tioned the free online cours­es at the HP Learn­ing Cen­ter? Who­ev­er it was, thank you. I’ve signed up for sev­er­al of them.

I’ve always been total­ly over­whelmed by Pho­to­shop. It’s just too much pro­gram for me. LView or Irfan­View have real­ly been enough. But I’m going to try to learn to use it, as some employ­ers specif­i­cal­ly ask about it.

I guess I need to learn more about graph­ics in gen­er­al. I can crop, resize, rotate, etc., and have done many a screen­shot for doc­u­men­ta­tion. I can do sim­ple image maps and most any­thing else that I tru­ly need to do for web­sites. But I can’t manip­u­late images any­thing like sam­bear can. And I think part of it is that I’m sim­ply not all that visu­al­ly oriented.
