Dear Photoshop Designer,

Do you ever wonder why the only place you can supposedly learn graphic design is at an expensive school?  Why is this?  What if you're like me and don't have $10,000's of dollars to spend on an antiquated learning system?  I was so frustrated so I had to find an answer.

You can go to graphic design school and easily spend upwards of $15,000 (as much as $40,000) and still not learn how to do what you really want to do (how to design the cool stuff).  So that's $15,000 minimum plus 1-2 years of your time and countless more years to catch on the "inside" techniques because employees or self-employed designers want to "keep it to themselves" or have 'tenure' so they may never teach you. 

Do you really have that kind of time and money to waste on becoming a proficient Photoshop user & professional level graphic designer ? 

You and I both know that Photoshop is the tool that the best graphic designers in the world use.  If you want to be one of them, you just need the right knowledge.  So many of my students are always thanking me about how much I've helped them greatly increase their Photoshop skills.

Hi, I'm Orion Williams, webmaster of the Tutorials Training Network of resources, and Adobe Photoshop CS - Certified Expert.  I believe you're here for a reason..you want to more fully harness the power of Photoshop for what you can do with it.  I personally welcome you to the world of TutorialsTraining.com; where anything is possible!

▪  I have trained 10,000's of Photoshop user's worldwide with my online Photoshop tutorials, Photoshop websites and supplemental training products.

▪ My PS page tutorials are listed with Good-tutorials, TemplateMonster & often featured in Graphics.com newsletters

  I have been to 3 PhotoshopWorld Conferences and am a member of NAPP (National Association of Photoshop Professionals).

  I am an Adobe Certified Expert for Photoshop CS. 

Adobe Certified Expert

▪  I am also a professional graphic designer who leads by example and has spent 1,000's of hours in Photoshop- it's what I do. 

If you take your digital/Photoshop/imaging education seriously but just don't want to make the 'expected' investment of thousands of dollars or just aren't ready for that level of commitment (or are ready but don't want to pay that much).  And if you want to make the MAXIMUM effective use of your time as 'productive uptime', I've got great news...

Finally you can learn how to:

*Use Photoshop 7, CS & CS2 proficiently

*Create designs that sell or develop a lifetime hobby

*Edit & retouch your Photos in no time like a pro

*Use inside secrets of professional graphic designers

*Design your own high quality graphic work & portfolio

*Never be stuck in a digital creative rut again

*Learn things you would have never learned about using Photoshop without wasting years & $1,000's of dollars (that's a big commitment anyways)

*Start designing TODAY w/ pre-made templates & layers

...and this is just the very tip of the Iceberg!

-Do you feel right now that you can fully express your creative visions with Adobe Photoshop?

-Do you know want to know how to use Photoshop most effectively?

There's no doubt that you are a person of vision and also a very visual person just for being here...but are you where you want to be at with Photoshop right now?  Do you have a hard time finding people that would really teach you?  Do you have unlimited time and money to spend to get the results you want? 

If not, then keep on reading or unfortunately you could spend a lot more ineffective time and thousands of dollars on an arduous journey maybe someday to become a professional graphic designer...

Wherever you're at with Photoshop; whether struggling, starting out or experienced in a few key areas, it's sometimes hard to see EVERYTHING that you can really do with Photoshop.  The reality is, Photoshop does hold the power for you to edit images and communicate your visions on a world class level.   It's what the world's top image editor's and graphic designer's use and it holds the potential to release your creative vision but if you don't know how to harness that power, you're losing...

Whether you're a graphic designer, photographer, web designer, etc. you probably want to be on top of the game-even if Photoshop is just a hobby.  Well today my friend I have good news for you; your Photoshop dreams can come true!  You can now easily learn how to harness the power of Photoshop for image-editing (which is a snap) but more importantly for expressing yourself visually with it's powerful tools.  The best part?

You don't have to go to graphic design or vocational school and spend that kind of money or time to get real-world results.

I tell you, I was so frustrated that I couldn't find how to learn graphic design (using Photoshop of course) that I decided to take 6 months of 12 hour days alone just to figure it out.  I don't think you have that kind of time to figure things out!?  I would look at graphic design from all kinds of genres including movie posters, flyers, brochures, websites, etc. and replicate them with my own resources. 

Because I was so stubborn, I also taught myself Photoshop for many months by putzing around.  Please don't ever do this to yourself!  You could waste so much time trying just to learn Photoshop if you don't get a complete training solution.  Being stubborn like I was is a complete waste of your precious energy and time!

Anyways, after I figured out basic Photoshop skills, I went at learning real world graphic design with a purpose because I was almost mad that no one else was teaching this, the real world stuff that you see everywhere in the world around you (on billboards, in magazines, in brochures, etc.).  I didn't have the money to spend on a 'traditional education' (design institute, etc.) so instead I put 6 months double full-time specifically into getting really good at many genres of graphic design by painstakingly re-producing real designs with my own elements.

Why is this important to you?  Because you can now cut years off of your 'real-world Show-me-the-money" learning curve (beyond 'just' learning Photoshop itself) and save yourself thousands of dollars (without having all the stress) with the leverage of my expert guru knowledge.  Remember that unless you're inside at an ad agency AFTER your degree, it's going to be hard to find anyone else willing to share their secrets.  Most importantly, you'll take the absolute fastest route (by learning and applying these secrets I'm going to introduce you to) to becoming a professional Photoshop designer.

Even though I'm as good as most any top designer out there, I'm not in competition with them so I don't mind sharing all of the inside-industry secrets...those same secrets that would otherwise take years to learn (they want to keep their jobs and secrets to themselves, naturally for income protection).  No one taught me anyways so I don't really care what they would say.  You can now access this knowledge.

What I found out through all of that time is that I just LOVE Photoshop and graphic designing (I was ALWAYS a visual person) and to be able to communicate effectively 'visually' and produce concrete results that were professional always gives me a rush.  Maybe you already know that feeling a little?! 

But because I was so perturbed that no one in the world I could find was teaching this stuff (real graphic design) I decided to put it into an educational format to SHARE & GIVE to the world (those interested) what I feel was (& other than my work, IS still missing).  They had to create a new category just for my design tutorials @ good-tutorials.com Hello!  That's the #1 tutorials site on the web!  I'm still the only one teaching the REAL stuff that I've seen (as well as basic Photoshop skills).

This means that NOW YOU CAN LEVERAGE OFF OF A TRUE PHOTOSHOP GURU'S KNOWLEDGE (mine) & save thousands of dollars and thousands of hours trying to figure it out for yourself.  Fast forward your knowledge way beyond your competition with my all-inclusive Photoshop skills training. 

If your Photoshop & digital education is very important to YOU, then you owe it to yourself to become acquainted with.........

The Tutorials Training Mega Package.  

It's the Photoshop tutorial training and MASSIVE powerful training supplements (not released by ANYONE else) to take you where you want to be with Photoshop and expressing yourself visually, whether you're a COMPLETE beginner or advanced amateur.

(some recent designs of mine)

 

How would you like to PASS your competition in PS versatility and performance compared to those going the 'traditional route'?

How about passing up where you would have been without the right training?

 

It all comes down to yielding solid & effective 'graphic' results.  You can be very effective & versatile with the right education & knowledge to 'smoke' results. 

I have dedicated myself to becoming the best I can and being extremely versatile with Photoshop as well as becoming a very good teacher at it (so I've heard).  I''m offering this powerful, priceless knowledge that would otherwise take YEARS OF YOUR LIFE to figure out (even if you spent the time and money).  I'm giving you this power for you to run away with and START APPLYING TODAY whether for print or web or wherever you want to go with it.

"Good Morning Mr. Williams (at least it's morning here on the east coast). I just recieved your MEGA Package & I have to tell you that I feel like a little kid on christmas,

I can't help but compare the box of DVD's to a treasure chest.

I can't even begin to comprehend the wealth of knowledge, technique & education that is in that little box. This may sound strange but it's almost a feeling of power just holding the box knowing that soon I will have the level of Photoshop ability that nobody else my age has (except your other students, of course).

I just wanted to thank you again for sharing your knowledge & skills with the general public. My Tutorial Key training should arrive Monday & then I probably won't be leaving this computer for a few days, Thank you."

What would you be able to do if you could look at real world designs and break them apart and move the layers around in Photoshop?!  Would that help you learn?  It's helped my students learn a lot about real world design.  This is the inside level of training that I'm talking about.  Cut all the wasted time and skip straight to what counts; the REAL WORLD professional Photoshop designing.

Here we step in on a design tutorial in progress (shhhh)..

"...Here you would add some Text with your type tool. Think about text as something that would synergize and complement the entire design... 

..This being a movie style poster, you will want to create your fantasy names or real names) at the top of the design. Use a smaller font. You definitely want these to be legible and there are a few fonts that will work all of the time like Minion and Times New Roman or Trajan...

Photoshop Tricks

..You may have to move the layer up in the layers palette because when you create new layers or start entering text, it will be placed right above the layer that you were on.  Press Ctrl/Cmd when you click new layer icon to put a new layer below the currently highlighted layer...."

This is just one of dozens of Photoshop Design tutorials of mine included on PDF & web pages

Are you a visual person? 

There is lots of money to be made in design.  This training will help get you there.  Look around you; everywhere you go you see billboards, magazines, movie posters, ads, flyers, brochures; all of these had to made by someone and they are getting paid for it; why not you too?  Advertisements and website's today need to attract and hold people's attention and companies are looking for qualified designers.  This is your chance to get going in the right direction and FAST.  Here is someone who took my training to get the job done himself...

"As a documentary and educational film maker, funds have always been scarce and I could rarely afford to have one-sheets, video covers and so on designed by an outside source. So, I decided to start making them myself and picked up a copy of Photoshop.."

"..Although I stumbled around and picked up a few basics on my own such as the concept of layering, learning Photoshop without help was intimidating and frustrating... a bit like trying to learn to fly an F-18 without an instructor! Specifically, the Photoshop program began to come alive when I found your site and began to learn about Gradients, the Pen, Erasure and Magic Wand tools, as well as a host of other tools.."
 

..."In addition to learning how to create posters and the like, I've also created my own company web site using Photoshop elements as well as several other sites for my productions.  Even though I'm really just a beginner and have a long way to go, all of this has happened very quickly. Photoshop is actually quite easy and fast to use, once you have the right instructor!  Orion, thank you for your magnificent website and for all your help in opening up a whole world for me in graphic design!"

Best wishes,
Jim Myer

Photoshop is a tremendously powerful yet intimidating software program, and if you're like me, you've probably wasted countless hours trying to figure things out on your own.  Or worse; you've left the program aside because you were too fed up with the sheer power of not knowing what to do with it, so you temporarily gave up  Don't suffer any longer!  You KNOW what Photoshop can do and more importantly you know that you have things you want to 'get done' with it

IF YOU:

●Are you overwhelmed by the scope and complexity of Photoshop...

 

●Are feeling limited because you just don't understand how to put all of Photoshop's tools together or know how they work...

I want you to know that I am here to help you make it EASY to learn Adobe Photoshop.  Yes, learning Photoshop should be easy.  You will finally be able to stop wasting time trying to 'figure it out' because you'll be spending your time editing images with fast and professional results.  There is no need to be frustrated or intimidated about learning Photoshop anymore.

These will allow you to SAVE TIME learning Photoshop and use your time to reach your image editing goals daily and EASILY because you will understand how to finally use all of the tools, tips & techniques to accomplish any image editing task.

●  Text editing and effects - So you can create very professional looking results in little to no time.  This will help round out simple photographs by adding a finishing touch to them.

●  How to create custom gradients & tool presets - Save time by creating your own set of tools' preferences to streamline and accelerate your workflow.  You can create any possible color combination of gradient from any color in the rainbow and use it as a background or product backdrop- I show you how.

●  Importing & Exporting files - You will be able to be 'up-to-speed' with the world of digital imaging and photo post-production.  You will understand how to scan-in and work with files for print or web as well as saving files (in different formats) and compressing them for web use.  You will also understand resolution and image size.

●  Photoshop CS - All of the new features in their own video tutorials including:

          ●  Type on a Path - Learn how to use this great new function for creating advanced typography just like magazine and advertising designers use all the time.

          ●  New File Browser - Watch as I show you the best ways to use the file browser and organize your files.  It is 10X more powerful than File: Open you won't want to be without it.

          ●  Shadow/Highlight Adjustment - Magically turn your darkest photos into visibility!  You will not believe your eyes and you'll want to start using this tool immediately on some of your photos.

          ●  Color Replacement & Red-Eye Reduction - Easily make magical color replacements with this brand new tool.  Easily fix red-eye in photographs with the other tool; watch as the evil, lurking cat turns friendly in the tutorial.

          ●  Creating MetaData Templates - This will allow you to apply copyright/image information to entire folders or volumes of your images all at one time.  Copyright all of your photo's or designs instantly with it embedded into the file, ready for distribution.

●  Creating custom brushes & brush options - You'll be amazed at the kinds of brushes you can make and how you can use them.  I show you how to use the brushes palette, how to make your own custom brushes to use for painting, special fx, or even hiding or erasing pixels with them.

●  All Adobe Photoshop tools and palettes - Understand how to use the tools and work in the Photoshop environment so you can focus your time on your project and not the project of still learning Photoshop.  You will see everything as it happens real-time in Photoshop and you will get very comfortable combining different tools and seeing how everything works together as I train you and also go through practical exercises.

Photoshop Tools

●  Creating shapes, filling selections with colors/gradients and more - Understanding these basic's can take you a long ways with graphic design in such areas as creating fliers, brochures, and really cool logo's.

●  How to touch up and restore photos for much improved results in a matter of minutes (sometimes seconds)!  You will learn how to use Photoshop's powerful Adjustment's and Filter's to your advantage to improve any and all of your images to impress yourself or friends with.

 Layer styles & effects - Tons of powerful instantaneous effects that novices can use to look like the pro's--you will use these a lot on text as I show you how.  You will be able to create professional Typography for any photo or design.  If you're new to Photoshop you'll probably just love the layer styles and the cool, dazzling stuff you can do with them to your layers.

●  Understand & master the power of layers - the fundamental of all digital design.  This is where each separate image becomes it's own moveable element.  It is imperative that you really grasp this particular subject, so I spend a lot of time on it and use layers a lot to get you comfortable with them.  When you know how to use layers, you will have the foundation to be able to start creating collages, montages, and ANY form of graphic design.  You will learn how to use the selection tools to create new layers to become part of a graphic design.

Just think of how much time you'll save not having to figure all of this out on your own.  

The Help Manual doesn't actually 'show you' how it's all done.

●  Combining multiple tools in getting a quick and fast selection - There are many ways to get selections and different tools that you can combine together to get your desired selection, I cover them so you know what tools to use when to save yourself stress and hassle.  Once you get a selection you can do many things with it such as adjust it, transform it, make it a layer and much more which I cover.

  Use Photoshop Adjustment & Fill layers - Learn how to apply adjustments such as changing the brightness values, or creating a gradient fill on completely temporary, disposable layers without damaging any of the pixels of your original layer/image.  This is perfect if you're not sure you want to keep an adjustment or if you might want to change it quickly later.

●  Layer sets, linking, saving files, exporting for web, merging - learn how to organize and manage your Photoshop workflow to save time during your projects.  No need to have a messy workspace with these tips.

●  Selections: all the tools, from basic to most advanced techniques (including the powerful quick mask mode): Learn how to select just about anything.  (In case you don't know yet, you create a selection out of an image so you can do something else with it like put a person onto a different background or create a world where the lion can lay next to the lamb).  I cover all of the tools including Lasso, add to and subtract from selection, marquee, pen & path editing tools, extract, color range and more - it's all here.

"I have already used many of the things I learned on Disc II for my work. I am now very comfortable using the different pallets and I have set up my own workspace. The books I have bought have taught me how the program works but your tutorials have taught me how to USE Photoshop. I really am enjoying myself and your passion for Photoshop comes through with some of your comments. Thanks again for making all this info available at a REASONABLE cost."

then with the TutorialKey Photoshop Video Tutorials Training you can now...

Cut your Photoshop Learning Curve drastically so you can start doing what you want to with your increased 'uptime' while achieving effortless results

With this jam-packed Photoshop Video Tutorials Training, you'll get not only a fully comprehensive and educational Photoshop CS experience at the highest technical and educational quality (from an Adobe Certified Expert, Photoshop CS - me), you'll also get 6 hours of bonus tutorials that take your complete training even further by going through practical exercises and focusing on multiple real world image editing scenarios.

The bonus training tutorials will really help take you immediately beyond just full proficiency and right into applying yourself in real-world scenarios as well as helping you understand how to combine different tools and techniques in a real workflow. 

Here are a few specific benefits that you will get with the TutorialKey Training for Photoshop CS:

These will allow you to SAVE TIME learning Photoshop and use your time to reach your image editing goals daily and EASILY because you will understand how to finally use all of the tools, tips & techniques to accomplish virtually any image editing task you can come across.

●  Text editing and effects - So you can create very professional looking results in little to no time.  This will help round out simple photographs by adding a finishing touch to them.

●  How to create custom gradients & tool presets - Save time by creating your own set of tools' preferences to streamline and accelerate your workflow.  You can create any possible color combination of gradient from any color in the rainbow and use it as a background or product backdrop- I show you how.

●  Importing & Exporting files - You will be able to be 'up-to-speed' with the world of digital imaging and photo post-production.  You will understand how to scan-in and work with files for print or web as well as saving files (in different formats) and compressing them for web use, weighted optimization, slicing & ImageReady and saving with transparency.  You will also understand resolution, image size and interpolation and ALL of the menu options.

●  Creating custom brushes & brush options - You'll be amazed at the kinds of brushes you can make and how you can use them.  I show you how to use the brushes palette, how to make your own custom brushes to use for painting, special fx, or even hiding or erasing pixels with them.

●  All Adobe Photoshop CS, menus, tools and palettes - Understand how to use the tools and work in the Photoshop environment so you can focus your time on your project and not the project of still learning Photoshop.  You will see everything as it happens real-time in Photoshop and you will get very comfortable combining different tools and seeing how everything works together as I train you and also go through practical exercises.  All saving you an INCREDIBLE amount of time and mental effort.

●  Creating shapes, filling selections with colors/gradients and more - Understanding these basic's can take you a long ways with graphic design in such areas as creating fliers, brochures, and really cool logo's.  Easily get a head start on design projects with this information.

●  How to touch up and restore photos for much improved results in a matter of minutes (sometimes seconds)!  You will learn how to use Photoshop's powerful Adjustment's and Filter's to your advantage to improve any and all of your images to impress yourself or friends with.

 Layer styles & effects - Tons of powerful instantaneous effects that novices can use to look like the pro's--you will use these a lot on text as I show you how.  You will be able to create professional Typography for any photo or design.  If you're new to Photoshop you'll probably just love the layer styles and the cool, dazzling stuff you can do with them to your layers.

●  Understand & master the power of layers - the fundamental of all digital design.  This is where each separate image becomes it's own moveable element.  It is imperative that you really grasp this particular subject, so I spend a lot of time on it and use layers a lot to get you comfortable with them.  When you know how to use layers, you will have the foundation to be able to start creating collages, montages, and ANY form of graphic design.  You will learn how to use the selection tools to create new layers to become part of a design or new project or to create special custom adjustments.

Just think of how much time you'll save not having to figure all of this out on your own.  

The Help Manual doesn't actually 'show you' how it's all done.

●  Combining multiple tools in getting a quick and fast selection - There are many ways to get selections and different tools that you can combine together to get your desired selection, I cover them so you know what tools to use when to save yourself stress and hassle.  Once you get a selection you can do many things with it such as adjust it, transform it, make it a layer and much more which I cover.

  Use Photoshop Adjustment & Fill layers - Learn how to apply adjustments such as changing the brightness values, or creating a gradient fill on completely temporary, disposable layers without damaging any of the pixels of your original layer/image.  This is perfect if you're not sure you want to keep an adjustment or if you might want to change it quickly later.  I show you how to do non-destructive editing so you don't have to start all over again.

●  Layer sets, linking, saving files, exporting for web, merging - learn how to organize and manage your Photoshop workflow to save time during your projects.  No need to have a messy workspace with these tips.

●  How to make image adjustments - I cover it all IN DEPTH including custom adjustment layers to apply an effect only to a certain part of one layer/image without changing anything else in the document.  All adjustments are explained thoroughly so you will understand what is going on.

●  Keyboard Shortcuts are consistently reiterated during the training process so it becomes natural and can save you tremendous amounts of time.  Before you know it you're working on your image editing and graphic design instead of trying to figure out how to use a certain tool and you're working fast using all of Photoshop's powerful tools that you now understand and don't let go to waste.

●  Selections: all the tools, from basic to most advanced techniques (including the powerful quick mask mode): Learn how to select just about anything.  (In case you don't know yet, you create a selection out of an image so you can do something else with it like put a person onto a different background or create a world where the lion can lay next to the lamb).  I cover all of the tools including Lasso, add to and subtract from selection, marquee, pen & path editing tools, extract, color range and more - it's all here and cross-referenced throughout the entire training program so you really can start using them right away to achieve results.

ONCE YOU HAVE THE BASICS UNDER CONTROL YOU CAN MOVE ONTO ALL THE OTHER GOOD STUFF YOU CAN DO WITH PHOTOSHOP..

Do you know how easy it is to improve and edit your photographs or to start graphic designing with Photoshop?  (A few of Photoshop's editing tools alone are worth the cost of the software).  It is so easy to fix worn-out photographs, make enhancements, correct exposure, even remove someone from the background or place them in another picture.  Your friends will be jealous.  Do you know what you are capable of when you finally can work freely within Photoshop?  You'd be so dangerous you might have to be locked up! 

OH, it's hard when you don't know how it's done, but don't worry I teach you how it's done.  Once you've got the basic skills down, THEN it becomes FUN with everything you can do.

Let me put it this way: Every product ad, movie poster, flyer, brochure, magazine cover, professional photo, marketing campaign, billboard, cd cover, product packaging, poster, and website either was made in Photoshop or had something to do with it

I'm talking everything in the deliberately created visual world around you basically boils down to Adobe Photoshop (or it's lesser competitors and supplementary software ie. Illustrator, InDesign).  Photoshop Reigns as King and all the top designers in the world use it (but you already know that). 

 

Remember...

The worst thing you can do is continue to sit there not knowing what to do with the world's most powerful (2-D) software right in front of you!  I know what that feeling's like because I used to be there, but I don't want you taking years of your life to get to a level you can be at in a few short weeks or months (it took me many years).  If you're finally taking Photoshop seriously (or thinking about it) you're in the right place at the right time because this Tutorials Training training can do for you what it's done for many others. 

But your secret is that you wouldn't have spent years of your life and $1,000's of dollars getting there (to any level you want)!

Did you Ever Wonder: "How did they do that!?"  Ever wonder why you can never really learn the inside "good stuff" that you see everyday around you?  Ever look at great posters or designs and wish you could do that?  Don't have a clue with how to even START using Photoshop?!  Here's your chance to really 'get somewhere' with Photoshop!  In the training I teach you how to combine all of Photoshop's different tools and elements specific to each genre of design to produce on that universal standard of quality. 

With my training now you can design just like the highest paid pro's!

Photoshop can be a great hobby as well as a profession, so I'm going to introduce you to some of the other training benefits you're going to get with this special opportunity...

It's nice that 10,000's of people worldwide are benefiting from my Photoshop training (both customers & online visitors) but it's what YOU can do with the training that really matters.  It's useless until you take it in your own hands and make progress to achieve your creative or professional goals.

"I want to take this opportunity to tell you that this is a wonderful way to see how much your tutorials teach others to become more comfortable and knowledgeable about Photoshop and all it's tools. Thanks to you I have made huge improvements in all my "creations" and I have (only) you to thank for it!...Thank you Orion! You constantly keep me motivated to keep on Photoshopping."
