ePlus doesn't ring any bells; I learnt at one of those free courses govt used to provide, run by the Sallies. I did a graphic design course & because I had my name down to do the computer graphics course, & they were going to lose their govt funding if they couldn't get enough students, they started working their way down their list - luckily for me the ones ahead of me on the list had all got jobs or were doing study elsewhere so I was able to do it.
And also very luckily for me I'd been doing voluntary work at an office for a charity where there wasn't that much work so as they had one of those little tinpot applications on their computer - Paint, of Paintbox or something, I played about with it & taught myself to paint in it so that when i did the Sallies course I was able to muck about a bit while the tutor was flat out helping the other students do their portfolios; he showed me the basics & I just carried on with help from him when I needed it.
All of which was ages ago, can't remember exactly when but ages.
The more recent photoshops are brilliant, had a look online & saw some work - really stunning, & way ahead of anything I can manage, but I'm happy just playing about & if I'm lucky Creative cronies take a painting for a Moon calendar diary or calendar.
I'm not much use with actual photos in photoshop though since I've forgotten most of what we were taught about them.
Do you mainly use photographic images or do you paint with photoshop?

Hope it isn't too bad & the furry creature isn't upset.
in order to be old & wise, you must first be young & stupid. (I'm still working on that.)
