Matt and Dave, you guys ROCK!!!!! I have not found better instructors than you guys. Thanks for all these awesome tutorials!
I just connected with a friend on Facebook and she had your site listed. I have never heard of Photoshop TV (I live in boonies). I watched this video and i’m on cloud 9 now. I just did this for a web project for school. I have had Photoshop classed but I forgot most of this.
I want to say Thank you, Thank you.
