2. Le Introduction
This guide, Photoshop 101, is a guide to obviously learn how to kind of use
photoshop; I say kind of because I don’t know how to use it, I know how to use
Paint though. The guide will contain slightly detailed information about the main
menu ribbon and its options, the tool box, and certain important terms everyone
interested in photoshop should know.
