Hey all just figured that I would introduce myself. My name is Andy, I am 17 pretty new to the whole photoshop/illustrator scene. I got really interested in photoshop because I am currently taking a class at my high school called Intro to Digital Graphics. Right now in my class we are working on touching up a face of someone who looks like a heroine addict and attempting to make her look beautiful. When I finish my project, I'll pop it onto my iPod and upload it here for you guys to critique it. I prefer the hurtful truth rather than kind lies lol. My sister recently got married and we have a TON of pictures from her wedding that to my standards arent up to par. So I really want to touch these pictures up from the wedding because they dont really do the wedding party justice hehe. I work with Adobe Illustrator CS3 and Adobe Photoshop CS3, so any tips/tricks/hints you guys have would be GREATLY appreciated.

Well I gotta rap this up because I am in kind of a hurry. Hope to see you guys some more :-)

Andy
