An introduction + quick look at how GIMP/Photoshop works, and what it is capable of doing. I will update this page with more details soon.
Doodle for scheduling: [http://doodle.com/xiv44a564944pt2s| GIMP/Photoshop Workshop]
== Goal ==
# Get everyone up and running with GIMP or Photoshop
# Explain and do a basic demonstration of all the core features
# Go all together through a couple of basic operations one may want to do
# Q&A session in the end
== Obstacle ==
A list of potential obstacles:
* People at the HS have a Apple-fanboy level of BS defending GIMP when Photoshop is an order of magnitude better, despite not being open source
* Both softwares require a reasonably beefy computer. Netbooks won't cut it. SSD + <4GB RAM + Dual Core recommended.
== Components ==
* VM with Photoshop/GIMP provided with all needed files on USB Keys/DVDs/FTP
== Schedule ==
Whenever people decide on the date thanks to the Doodle

''note: I am not an expert. But I am better than most of you, and I have made cash from doing stuff in Photoshop in the past.''
