WORTH THE WAIT?
There you have it, a list of some of my favorite photoshop and Adobe related resources. Hopefully they’re handy. Just remember, most of these sites do offer RSS feeds – so you might just want to subscribe to keep updated with some of the best Adobe resources on the web. And if you’re still not sure about RSS…well, there’s a great resource on rss too!
I don’t claim that these are all the resources on the web, so if you’ve got some that aren’t on this list don’t hold back…share ‘em with us!
Also, you can anticipate a Photoshop seminar early this coming fall semester once you all are back on campus.





Thanks Amanda, I am starting to save each one, but bookmarked this page as well. I cant wait to actually dig into the links though individually.

Daissy is right, Lightroom is the bomb. They had me hooked on the beta version, but luckily the student price is only $95!

Lightroom is certainly WORTH every penny you spend. I saw it in action at Photoshop World and initially I went in thinking – ah, heck it’s just for photographers. After seeing the demo my perspective totally changed! For photo enhancement it beats out Photoshop any day…but you’ll still leave the manipulation to Photoshop!

I agree with you Amanda, when I first heard about it I was thinking, “Shoot, what can this do that I can’t do with Bridge, Camera Raw, and Photoshop” but it was the greats at PS user mag that showed me the light. Photoshop still remains king for manipulation though, that is true.
PS thanks for all the resources! If I ACTUALLY had a life, I wouldn’t have time to even go through all of them (shoot, I still might not).
