In Comm. 350 this week we learned how to use the basic applications of Photoshop and Dreamweaver to get our websites officially started. We basically learned the various methods of what all you are capable to do in Photoshop more than just cropping and rotating pictures. The applications we learned using Photoshop were how to design structured layers, add/designing photos, editing, and ability to move around words and photos quick and easy. Photoshop is an excellent tool to copy pictures from either you phone, camera, or online and design them onto an actual page with the option to have a legitimate background.
Having it be my first time using Photoshop, and not very familiar with the software, I thought it was extremely useful to watch a couple of videos which took me step by step through the process. Professor Lind taught us the ability to also use the application Dreamweaver as a tool to combine with Photoshop to create an HTML link and upload them to the websites we are currently in the process of designing. Although Photoshop isn't the easiest software in the world to learn, it's nice to understand at least the basics at what it has to offer before getting started. Below, I have inserted a couple of tutorials just to get you started: Good Luck.
