Introduction

In the past decade, Adobe Photoshop has sold about 10 million licenses. Every day, graphic designers, animators, publishers and illustrators open their version of Photoshop to work on their projects. This program is not only used for commercial design, photography and printing, but also for scientific research and by forensic technicians.

When you realize the wide practice of Photoshop, you start to wonder what it takes to learn how to use the program and start using it for your own purposes. Many of us have even downloaded the free trial for one or another version of Photoshop, but most of us have been scared off by the sheer amount of options it offers and the lack of skills to use them. Indeed, Photoshop offers a wide range of possibilities, if only one knows how to take advantage of them.

This guide is here to help you gain solid command over Adobe Photoshop CC, a version of Photoshop that requires Creative Cloud membership with over 1,000 updates since Photoshop CS6 and new, perfected features for designers, photographers and artists. With this introduction to the basic functions of Photoshop CC, you will learn to complete the most common tasks in this program. Once you see how easy and fun this program is, you will be able to use it in your advantage. Many people use it to spark up their own creativity, but most sell their work online, design their own logos and business cards, edit their photography, etc.
