Welcome

Welcome to Introduction to Photoshop! This module is designed to get you up and running with Adobe Photoshop.

This module covers of Photoshop CS (also known as version 8). The user interface is pretty much consistent from one version to another, but if you are using a version other than CS, some features may work differently.

Why Photoshop?

The Health Sciences Library is committed to helping people learn information skills that are critical to success in the the 21st century. Information includes not only text and numbers, but images as well. The expression "a picture is worth a thousand words" is as true today as ever. And digital imaging offers many ways of working with and using images that were never before possible.

Adobe Photoshop is the industry standard tool used for digital imaging, which makes Photoshop expertise a valuable commodity in the workplace of today and tomorrow. Learning Photoshop is also a good way to learn imaging concepts. Concepts you learn from working with Photoshop apply to other imaging tools as well.
