Looking for a Tutor to teach me Photoshop CS2

I am looking for someone who can spend from 1-3 hours, in 30 minute to 1 hr intervals, teaching me some key areas of Photoshop CS2. The person needs to be in th4e United States and speak english fluently without a heavy foreign accent. I am looking for step by step, live tutoring over the phone. I have tried to use the photoshop training materials but I still don't "get" it. At a minimum, I want to learn, in detail, the following:
-learn how to extract objects from images
-learn how to change a certain color in an image to another color
-understand layers and how to break an image down into layers
-learn how to create masks and work with layers.
I will pay by the hour - hoping to get someone around 30.00/hr.
thanks
Patrick

no so much a dig at the OP as just an observation. it totally confounds me why someone would pay for what they already have. learn the terminology and what the app is capable of first by reading the manual (ANY manual, this doesn't just apply to learning photoshop), then when you can speak the lingo, you can really get your $20/hr worth of instruction because you'll be better equipped to ask relevant questions.
the axiom: there's no such thing as a stupid question applies only as far as you're not paying for answers.

  • Looking for APEX tutoring in NJ (with pay) - urgent -

    Hi,
    I'm a newbie to APEX. I can get a simple form up and running fine. But the project is more than a simple form. I have not got a chance to get training yet. I'm looking for an experienced APEX developer in NJ to tutor me with pay. I'm using APEX 3.2 with Oracle 11g database via Embedded PL/SQL Gateway (which probably is not so relevant). A brief description of the project is as follows:
    Login -> Home
    |
    V
    Form 1 -> Search, then display the items that were entered (maybe a dynamic display) based on the search criteria. Click on the item to faciliate "Update" or "Deactivate" (similar to "delete"). On the top of the page, there's a "Add" tab to facilitate insert.
    Form 2 -> ......
    Form 3 -> ......
    The same or similar logic for the other Forms (total about 10 Forms, with Reports added later). This is some of my rough concept, the overall application flow/wrapper can be discussed, if there's other alternative or I'm not on the right track.
    Please let me know PROMPTLY.
    Thanks much,
    Helen

    Why are you repeating a prior posting you made today (Looking for APEX tutoring (with pay) in NJ - urgent - Posting the same item more than once will cause headache and issues with the folks that frequent here..
    If you have a need for tutoring, as you have asked, you have been sent three viable solutions to follow (two different responders in the area willing to help for $$ and one response involving working through the tutorials on Oracles APEX page and buying one of the better APEX books.. I Would HIGHLY Recommend John E Scott's book, http://www.amazon.com/Oracle-Application-Express-Experts-Voice/dp/159059827X ..
    Keep the questions coming, folks here will help when they can..

    Hi,
    I'm a newbie to APEX, and trying to get the project up and running. I can get a simple form up, but the project I'm doing is more than a simple form. I have not got a chance to get any training yet. Looking for APEX tutoring in NJ with pay.
    Please let me know promptly.

    Helen,
    First of all, welcome to the forums and the wonderful world of APEX development.
    Before recommending anything, it would be really good to know a little bit about your background and how comfortable you are with Oracle, SQL, and PL/SQL. If you're completely new to Oracle (i.e. you've been working with EXCEL and ACCESS), I would recommend a completely different path than someone who is coming at this from a long history of Oracle Forms development, and different again form someone that has Java or other Web development experiene.
    Can you help us out with some information about your programming background?
    In general, I agree with Don. The 2 Day developer and Advanced Tutorial white papers will give you a good start, by letting you peek under the covers of what is possible with Application Express. There are also a couple good books that might help depending on where you're coming from and what your skill level is.
    However, there is nothing like getting yourself into a learning environment that allows you to ask questions specific to what you're trying to achieve in the real world.
    The company I work for ( [Sumner Technologies|www.sumnertech.com] ) also provides APEX training at the beginner, intermediate and advanced levels. We can provide these classes in a public forum, as private on-site classes, or we also provide instructor lead online training classes as well. We have several classes scheduled through the end of the year so check [http://www.sumnertech.com/training|http://www.sumnertech.com/training] for a list of available courses and our public/Online schedule).
    What course best suits you will obviously depend on where you're starting from, but we can definitely help there.
    Feel free to give us a call at (703) 879-4615. We'll be happy to help.

  • I don't use Photoshop - looking for software with similar functionality to Photoshop's Pixelbender / Oil Painting.  Any suggestions?

    I don't use Photoshop, I'm an Aperture guy.
    I'm looking for software with similar functionality to Photoshop's Pixelbender / Oil Painting. 
    I'm especially interested in the bending of the pixels, along the lines of impressionist paintings - think van Gogh.
    Any suggestions?

    If you are interested in computer simulated drawing and painting effects, have a look at the "ToonIt!" plug-in for Aperture. This will do some of the basic work for you, but you will have to do quite a lot of editing afterwards, to turn the image into a piece of art.
    It might be easier, to do most of the drwing and painting yourself in the first place - ArtRage Deluxe is very versatile, if you have a large trackpad and pen.
    For example: Applying a light ToonIt! effect "Impressionist2": The diagonal
    cross-pattern is due to "Demo" mode - I have not yet bought the plug-in - it is rather expensive:

  • Looking for dreamweaver tutor near Buffalo Grove, IL

    Can anyone here help me find a dreamweaver tutor near Buffalo Grove, IL?  I volunteer for a children's hospital and want to move our existing website from iweb to dreamweaver.  I've taken the intense 3-day DW course twice, but since I don't use it on a daily basis, it's hard to remember everything and apply what I've learned to a specific project.  I love learning with Apple's One on One program and am hoping to find someone who can coach me through the process of creating a website in DW.  Any thoughts?

    Like SnakEyez02 I think you might benefit from at least taking a look at Wordpress.  If you enjoy learning, why devote that to a product that you are not going to use regularly?  Wordpress is a highly regarded platform that a wide range of people get a good end result with.  People who have absolutely no knowledge of code through experts to who make a living out of it.   If you want to press on with Dreamweaver then you need to brush up on your HTML CSS skills and unless you do, it will be a cruel mistress!  Wordpress equally, will serve you better if you have a good understanding of the underlying technologies which on top of HTML and CSS, includes PHP.
    With Wordpress, you can build a site, enable others to contribute content, and easily add the ability for users to interact.  You can add heaps of functionality through plugins and you can start small and build it up.  A couple of books might interest you: Biginning Wordpress 3.0 and Smashing Wordpress: Beyond the Blog.
    Wordpress has a hugh following and community with masses of tutorials, sites and freebies that will help you on your way.

  • Looking for Online Coldfusion Tutor

    Hello, I'm looking for a tutor to work with me and teach me advanced topics/techniques in coldfusion.
    I think this can be done easily using the phone and join.me. 
    Does anyone know of any coldfusion tutors or websites that I can find someone? 
    Please email me at [email protected]
    Thanks for your help.
    Steve

    And how *would* you expect a ColdFusion page to display from your computer when you don't have ColdFusion installed? Seeing as you can get a completely free developer edition, what's the reason you don't want to just install it? It would make your life much easier.

  • Looking for feedback on Photoshop web compatibility tool

    We initially build https://www.oss-usa.com/psd-parser?promo=psd-parser as internal tool for validating Photoshop artwork against known web compatibility issues and recently made it available as a free online service.  Looking for feedback from folks actively using Photoshop on web design projects.

    Hello otechcomputing. is this how you want to setup your network?
    If so, Guest Networks cannot be " extended" since it has Website Authentication encryption which the RE1000 does not support. Here are my suggestions:
    1. Main Network WiFi password should be WPA2 Personal (more secured)
    2. Enable Guest Access (password protected)
    3. Reconfigure the RE1000 to connect to the EA6500 (main network) and change the extender's network name and password (still WPA2 Personal). You can name it with "EXT" at the end to designate it as such.

  • Looking for Teaching Database

    I am looking for a large enterprise teaching database for a group of students taking DBA courses at a private IT education institute I work for.
    The database has to have sufficient number of tables, indexes, and other objects as well as data volume so as to represent as close as possible to a real world enterprise database.
    Data volume is important. We want to be able to introduce these students to the reality of large enterprise data volumes and the impact of high volume queries, by concurrent users, on database performance.
    Bottom line here is that we need a database that will force the student to deal with administration, tuning, backup, etc in a realistic manner.
    Does anybody have such a database that we can use or know of a location that teaching databases and data can be downloaded.
    Our intention is to not provide them the database but to create a set of specs form the database we get and have studetns model and desing their own versions of it. They will then import the data we provide.
    Thank you for any and all assistance you can provide.

    That looks perfect!
    I googled at first, and found a site with an alphabetical list of about 30 different database options. I got about 4 into it before deciding I should ask the experts. :)
    Thanks a lot!

  • What to look for in a good quality font?

    What are some things to look for in a well designed paid or free font? How do I know if it will print nicely? What can I look for after typing some text in Photoshop or Illustrator to ensure that it is high enough quality for printing?
    Thanks.

    For print, 300 ppi is actually considered low resolution. High resolution is something about 2400 ppi and up. The average desktop laser printers you can buy today will do 600 ppi, and the high end desktop laser printers will go up to 1200 (sometimes even more).
    On the other hand, 300 ppi is currently considered high resolution for a screen. The iPhone 4 for example, has 326 ppi, which is pretty high for a device of that size. In the coming years we will likely see tablet devices match up that resolution (the iPad first gen. has 132 ppi) and probably even surpass it.
