Just got Photoshop CS2 yesterday, give me some pointers please, how do you like it?

The cropping around Berrian is pretty bad and the background doesnt really match. It's acrtually not terrible for a 1st though.
Here's some tips:
1.) Go to good-tutorials.com to learn more about effects and such.
2.) Go to dafont.com to download different fonts.
Just keep working at it and you'll get better. If you ever need a PSD, let me know.

Thanks man, ya I have been working on this all day trying to get alot better. Im wondering though.. How do you get better at brushing? lol because everytime I do it as you can see I get like blobs and they dont really mesh well.

Try lowering the opacity of the brush, mess around with the colors of the brush, and tinker with the blending options.

alright and how do I like get the text after I download it?
Posted by: SoxFan1 Oct 15 2006, 02:42 PM
You'll need to extract the file then copy and paste it into the Fonts folder in your Control Panel.

ya im havin' trouble with that. I have no idea how to get text for me to use.. I just downloaded one.. Comes up to some random folder and I dont know what to do.. 
Posted by: SoxFan1 Oct 15 2006, 02:49 PM
You need WinZip or WinRAR to extract the file because the file that you downloaded is compressed.

Here is my newest sig.. C/C?
Posted by: SoxFan1 Oct 15 2006, 10:09 PM
I'd say the same for this sig. I don't know why, but the quality looks low. I think you might have the blending options to "Dissolve."
Posted by: Chicago Bulls Franchise Oct 15 2006, 10:29 PM
No I have Berrian on one layer at Blur image and then I pasted him again with the Chicago bear "C" on Overlay.. Its probably how I cut him? God dang that takes forever to cut people because half the time the magic wand goes into there jersey and what not.
But wouldnt you atleast say this sig is better than the last one? I have been working alot!

It is a bit better.
And if you ever need a photo cropped, let me know. I have that exact Berrian PSD on my site now as a matter of fact.

A PSD is a cropped photo that you can pop right into a graphic. PSD stands for Photoshop Document.

Well in that case could you give me a couple PSD's? I need Berrian, Mark Anderson and Rex Grossman if possible
