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: GIMP/Photoshop Workshop

Goal

  1. Get everyone up and running with GIMP or Photoshop
  2. Explain and do a basic demonstration of all the core features
  3. Go all together through a couple of basic operations one may want to do
  4. 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.
