Adobe Photoshop Elements 7 Tutorial Video

Here is a very thorough but user-friendly Adobe Photoshop Elements 7 Tutorial Video series. The latest in a long line of example-focused video based training courses, this one tackles the unique challenges and fun options of editing photos, adjusting images and creating digital effects with the Photoshop Elements 7 package.
Offering users an intelligent introduction to photo retouching and management, the training course gives basic tips on the way the imaging process fundamentally works, so that even complete beginners are on good footing as the tutorials progress. Although Photoshop Elements it is missing some of the features found in the much more expensive Photoshop CS4, Elements 7 has nearly all of the major photo-based tools, and definitely all of those that users at home will want to see.
Most traditional Elements training resources rely on telling users what to do. They do their best to avoid jargon, but because they are written by people who are designers first and not writers, it inevitably creeps in. They try to incorporate useful examples and screenshots, but sometimes the point just doesn’t come across with still images. That’s where the tutorial videos are different. These video tutorials teach by direct example, with users being shown in studio quality video how each technique is accomplished in a realtime view of the application workspace. And since author Phil Hawkins has experience conducting photo workshops, he has a natural teaching style that makes learning Photoshop Elements 7 easy.

Elements 7: Top Features

There are a number of included tools and options in Photoshop Elements 7 that make it a better solution for managing and working with your images, and we’ve included a few of our favorites below:
Three different editing modes. The modes vary depending on the user’s level of expertise and what they are trying to accomplish. Quick mode lets you manipulate photos with a few powerful but basic tools, including lighting, color and sharpness adjustments that you can quickly make.
A special Guided Mode takes the user through both simple and more complex tasks within the software with step-by-step advice that helps users learn from within the program. While useful on their own, the tips complement the advice given in the Elements 7 Tutorial Video and help you become more creative in less time.
The Full mode puts 22 useful tools and a layout-based editing screen right at your fingertips so more confident users can make short work of dull or problematic shots. This is where having the right instructional guidance really comes into play.
Tools to organize and share your shots. Adobe knows that most Elements users are working from home, so it includes a wide range of features that make it the Swiss army knife of photo software. You can use the software to sort and label your images and upload them to online services with drag and drop functionality.
This is just a quick look at what makes this program worthwhile. In the full Photoshop Elements 7 Tutorial Video you will learn not only how to use it effectively but also to appreciate it as a tool.
