Ok, so today we are going to learn the basics from photoshop cs2, I know this stuff may sound dumb but you have to learn all the photoshop tools, just to make a pretty good macabre art.

We will start with the tool bar, I use it all the time. This ones are what I use the most:

- Selection tool
- Move tool
- Magnetic lasso
- Magic wand
- Brush tool
- Clone stamp tool
- Eraser tool
- Paint bucket tool
- Burn tool
- Horizontal type tool
- Eye dropper tool
- Hand tool
- Zoom tool

Here's the tool bar, stuff that I use are marked with red:



The other thing I use it's the layer list:

In the place where it says "normal", that's where you can add effects to the layers you are working on, I use that a lot, also I use opacity and fill.



The history is also very important, it lets you erase the errors that you've made before, don't press ctrl+ z for big mistakes, use the history.





COMING SOON: Texture manipulating, it's easy so don't worry.
