4. Photoshop
Tutorial
I have personally used Adobe Photoshop CS4. I believe that all
Photoshop basically do the same thing, meaning you can
enhance photos and make them they way you want. This one
is quite amazing. One of my favorite parts was being able to
use different lightening and placing a color factor on it. When
taking a tour at the beginning I was amazed at what I could
do. It was so easy taking me step by step. It was very easy and
helped me make my photos more exciting.
A-HA
+ When reading the article I was still confused about some of
the actions that this program did. I wanted to know if it did
layering and color reverse and “a-ha” it told me how! It gave
me an incite on how to do it.
+ Another “a-ha” moment was when I realized I was sending
my photos wrong. I could never get it right until again I read
the article.
+ “A-ha” I can put my raw digital film as a Smart Object! It just
makes it a better graphic in general.
Though I have not used this program much I do enjoy it and
would recommend it to anyone and everyone. It takes you
step by step through what you want to know.

“We find it easier to use Smart Object menu items using
the context menu for a Smart Object in the Layers
panel, instead of hunting for them in the Layer > Smart
Objects submenu. Be sure to right-click or Ctrl-click (Mac
OS X) on the layer name, not the thumbnail, or you won’t
see all of the Smart Object commands.”

stings on a guitar and what key they are. Like all

7. Guitar Tutorial
When reading about guitar tutorials I found it very interesting. I have
never used any software to learn an instrument, but I think it would
be very helpful. I think that you can just learn it on your own pace
and not have to set a time to make an appointment with an
instructor. Instead you would have your software for whenever you
wanted to learn. It takes
someone step by step and is easy learning. I
think it would be less frustrating and sounds
like a great idea for anyone looking to learn
the guitar
A-HA
+ I didn’t know that guitar software had different methods
of teaching then regular school methods
+While learning at your own pace you are more likely to
keep that skill and enjoy it
+Some you can actually plug your guitar into a box that can
connect to your computer
