Elements 7 beginners help
There are a ton of tutorials to be found on the net, as has been said, but when I started out with PSE (v4) I found a book by Mark Galer very useful, as it talked you through a series of projects and came complete with DVD with video tuts and and sample images. Even the tuts I wasn't interested in for the sake of the type of pic (eg retouching a a beauty shot) still taught me stuff about the pr...

I have free Photoshop videos on my website and try to do it in an idiot proof fashion (which comes naturally!). I'm a copywriter by day so I'm used to putting complicated jargon into easy to digest language. I also have photo technique and photography marketing tips too. Hope it helps.

I have resized the image but for some reason which escapes me at the moment it only prints half the image. I now...

This tutorial is on the Adobe website- they have lots of stuff there which should help you get to grips with the program. Another tip is a Google search- I found that tutorial using "photoshop elements tutorial card" and the Adobe tutorial was the top of the list. You should be able to use that technique to find lots of tutorials to help you. If you get stuck at any point with it give us a s...

Dont forget that if you decide to manually paint a mask as opposed to using the quick select tool as in the tutorial, you can still use CS5's Refine Mask tool to refine the masks edges. HTH Stu :)
