Tutorials
Welcome to SSDCC tutorials. We plan to over time provide our members with a wide range of video and written tutorialss to suit all levels of abilities. The three main pieces of software we will concentrate on is Photoshop Elements, the full version of Photoshop and Lightroom.
The tutorials will be either sourced from resources such as Adobe TV and You Tube or home developed and created by our in house membership.
If there is a particular area or method you would like the club to include here please contact a committee member, use the contact form on this website or better still post your question on the forum.
You will need Adobe Flash Player to view the video tutorials.
You will need Adobe Acrobat Reader to view the written tutorials.
Current Tutorials
Photoshop Elements.
We are currently using Elements 9 for our tutorials but most methods shown should work with previous versions. Elements is a scaled down version of the full version of Photoshop but many of the tutorials will work for both.
