I have been trying to learn elements6 and most of the tutorials I find are for some other version of Photoshop and I am very frustrated! I am begining to think I should have just bought the a different version. Any one have any suggestions where I can find specific tutorials for PSE6?

Hello and welcome to RetouchPRO, Diya...

I feel your pain and frustration. One of the downsides of new versions is it takes a while for tutorials to show up.

I'm a Photoshop user so I'm not at all familiar with Elements, but I did find a few possibilities using these key words in a Google search: "elements 6" tutorials

This one looks especially promising:

I hope this gets you moving in the right direction.

Another site that deals with elements and has alot of tutorials is this one..hope this helps you out

Hi Diya:
You can use any tutorials for Photoshop Elements 5 that you find on the web but best are the two sites listed above. I moved up from Photoshop Elements 5 because of a few new features. The one that made up my mind to get 6 was the new selection brush. Other than that both are about the same. New features in 6 haven't had a need for yet. More tutorials are coming out for 6 and a lot of people here will help..Good learning.

Hi Diya,

I have Elements 6 and and have found about.com very useful and subscrib to their
Graphic newsletter.

I also recommend buying Photoshop Elements 6 THE MISSING MANUAL by Barbara Brundage. It teaches you everthing you need to know about Elements 6! It's like my bible. Keep it close by at all time. Well worth the money.

Good luck. We can all learn together!

Hi:
Another book that I have beside Missing Manuel is Philip Andrews "Adobe Photoshop elements 5.0 A-Z. This is not a How To book but a Description of what each and every function does and they are listed Alphabetically. Check to see if they have updated for Photoshop Elements 6 yet. My 5.0 covers everything in 6.0 pretty much, any new thing can be brought up here. HTH

Thanks.

Sounds like a useful book.

Thanks for your suggestions everyone.
