Yes, it's working great! Love the tutorials so far! Easy to follow and understand. I'm in the QuickMask section now....and it's actually easy to understand and follow along! This is much better than buying textbooks.

Your sites are quite impressive, and I'm considering a purchase. However,
you cover so much that it will take me a little time to determine what I
want. I consider myself an intermediate in PSP, but new to PS.

Dear Sir,
I really appreciate for your dedicated work and assistance showing to me informing step by step about Photoshop. I strongly believe that only book is not enough to learn photoshop. It is needed to get sample from experience user like you.
Once more I express my appreciation to you.
Have a nice life and your assistance in this matter will remaind me your name again and again.

Dear Sir,
I really can't find language to express my gratitude for your helpful hints giving to my on daily basis. One month back I started some work just to design packet and broucher and find me in an ocean as i was not expart in Photoshop. Later I bought a book which did not meet my satisfaction. Than I feel experienced someone who could teach me as you are doing now a days.
After recovering from financial crisis I will have to buy book from you.
Once again, I show my gratitude to you and will be remain ever grateful for your assistance in this matter.
Yours well wisher

I have already used many of the things I learned on Disc II for my work. I am now very comfortable using the different pallets and I have set up my own workspace. The books I have bought have taught me how the program works but your tutorials have taught me how to USE Photoshop. I really am enjoying myself and your passion for Photoshop comes through with some of your comments. Thanks again for making all this info available at a REASONABLE cost.       -Jackie Graham: Canada

"...I have been learning to restore old family photos to go with my genealogy research. Your lessons have been amazing! By learning to use the Lasso, and other selection tools properly, as well as the Healing brush, Layer Effects and Masking, I am able to bring my ancestors back to “life” through their photographs to preserve them for generations to come.  I would have never believed that I could have done anything like this in Photoshop- never thought I was smart enough! You have taught me well, and I will always draw upon that knowledge as I get better and better!!!....I am continuing to restore and improve damaged and faded photographs. Some that are over 100 years old now look like they were made yesterday! I cannot tell you how much it means to me to see the faces come alive, and only through your wonderful lessons and teaching was I able to do it.
Thanks so much from the bottom of my heart!"

“Thanks for the 60 tutorials...that I already received day by day...I am happy that what I obtained is thanks to your lessons and photoshop of course.  The results are maybe not so brilliant, but I’m sure that with the basic cd’s and the practice I will obtain much better compositions. I am aware that I will have to study, to practice a lot but I am 200% convinced that Photoshop is so great that it is impossible to know all the possibilitys of the program. So I will be pleased if only I could know a part of it to obtain what ever I want to do with one or some pictures...That to convince you that I am yearning to learn...

“I don’t have any other designs to compare this with because this is my first original, and the simple-to-understand, comprehensive instruction in these Free Basic Photoshop tips helped me to accomplish it. I had a passing knowledge of most of the tools, but these free instructions helped me to discover new shortcuts and features to the tools I already knew, as well as introducing me to some I had never thought of using or knew the uses for. Orion’s Basic Photoshop emails opened up a whole new world of possibilities for me and increased my overall enjoyment of Photoshop...Many thanks, Orion, and to all who want to broaden their horizons beyond the Basic knowledge of Photoshop...buy the DVDs!

"Without the tutorials, I wouldn’t have known where to start. I am new to using Photoshop and your tutorials have been a great help in understanding what I am doing. Thank you for the immense help."    -Wade Kehner

"...I bought different books but couldn’t seem to achieve anything more than how to use the program. When Photoshop CS came out, I knew I needed more than what I was getting and I began to check the internet for more creative help. I came upon the Photoshopdesign.net website and tried some of the free tutorials. I wanted to be able to do some of the design effects that were in some of the sample psd’s. I purchased the Total course and I am still working on them.  

I am 59 years old and to learn new things takes me more time so I have to do some of the tutorials over and over. Without trying to score brownie points or lie, the Photoshop Designer course has been the most valuable investment I have made in my quest to learn and understand Photoshop. Orion Williams not only teaches what Photoshop can do, he also shows you how to achieve these effects and add variables. He continues your education with free downloads and access to his portfolio which I find amazing as most designers are so protective of their work.

..I am still experimenting with layer masks but do find it a lot of fun to combine photos, do some blending and apply layer masks. As I continue to progress with the tutorials, I hope to become more valuable to my company and find the confidence to produce more exciting flyers and promotional materials. Tolerances, opacities, flow, fill, the various layer styles and what they mean (overlay, hard light, multiply etc) are all covered.

...The one complaint that I have (there goes my brownie points) is that you sometimes go too fast but there is always rewind. I also appreciate the subtle humour throughout the tutorials.  Who says you can’t teach an old dog new tricks.

"...Ive printed and read your Basic Photoshop tutorials and I may say, that I have been doing a part time studies course for 1 1/2 years now on desktop publishing which incorporates Photoshop and this is the only time that I fully understand and got the full grasp of the Basics of Photoshop when I read your manual, much, much better than the school manuals and some Photoshop books that Ive read. Your tutorials are well written and well visually laid out that even a newbie like me will no doubt be able to follow the steps. Now Im excited and wish I’ll get your DVDs sooner...

Now it seems that I may find my part time studies soooo boring. What’s happening is in school the teacher gives us a project brief that we will do (this is on our second stage of photoshop - Certificate 4); gives us a hard copy example and that’s about it. We then produce a project and all they do is comment without giving us more information how to enhance our work nor the way it should be done. I once asked regarding those techno art and the only response I got is that I have to start clicking all those other filter tools and be inventive. Its too frustrating to us newbies coz we see posters that are beautifully made and yet the teachers wont give us ideas how its done.

So I was just so amazed when I saw all your freebies psd files it really shows everything, actuallly NO NEED for a teacher or the classroom. The only thing I regret is its only now that I happen to stumble to your site.
Well sorry for taking up much of your time, Im just so excited on these tutorials and cant help myself giving you a feedback."

Cheers and Thanks

Here's what more customers are saying about the Discover Photoshop Training Products (including Basic Photoshop)

"I have ordered several different training programs for Adobe Photoshop and the tutorials you get from Orion Williams are far and above anything I have found so far. Really enjoy them and learning at the same time. Thanks Orion!"  -John P. Staples

"The training has been a great help to me and I would definitely recommend this training to those who really want to get into really learning Photoshop and not have to worry about being overwhelmed."

-Brandon Spain

"Orion, Just had to drop you a note on your "First Edition" Photoshop Designer DVD series (now the Discover Photoshop: Total Package) that I purchased in March 2004. I have gotten thru the first 2 DVD's; file basics and patterns selections and adjustments. I thought I had a good knowledge of Photoshop until you showed me in the DVD's how much I didn't know. I had been trying to teach myself Photoshop by purchasing magazines with cover cd's that had tut's on Photoshop and by reading the "gurus" books. Nothing, repeat nothing, comes close to your DVD's. It is like you are right here teaching me, one on one. The other tut's I got from the magazines did not come close to your easy to follow course. I would buy 3 magazines a month on Photoshop, each costing about $14.00, that is $42.00 a month. Just about each and every month. Now that I purchased your DVD collection for $97.00 I am only buying maybe one magazine a month. Your DVD collection is a steal at $97.00 for all the information that in in it, and I am only into the first 2 DVD's. My mind may not be able to contain all the Photoshop knowledge you have on the DVD's. I really want to thank you for the easy to understand way you go thru the lessons on the DVD's. It has give me the ability to get more out of Photoshop than with anything else. It seems to me like you want people to really understand Photoshop and some of the other "gurus" just want to sell books or tutorial cds. I am so glad I purchased the DVD collection. I was a little concerned at first because I never heard of you but I will tell anyone "NOW" that this guy, Orion Williams is "THE" Photoshop "guru" for the 21st century. STAY HEALTHY Keep up the good work."

 Sincerely, -Tom Novak

“Excellent!  This Photoshop tutorial teaches me everything that I need to know about the powerful tools of Photoshop.   Not only that, but it also is helping me gain a better understanding of the basics of good design.  Nowhere else have I seen anyone teach the elements of great movie poster design.  I would highly recommend Photoshop Designer for anyone who uses Photoshop.”     -Matthew Peters     Madison, WI

"I do graphic design work mainly for small businesses and my church. I have worked mainly with vector and web programs over the past several years, but decided I needed to learn more about Photoshop. I was very excited to discover your learning program on the web. (I was even more excited to discover about the great price). I’m self-taught on the softwares that I have, but I didn’t want to take the time to learn another graphic software. Your Photoshop Designer: First Edition has cut the learning time greatly. I have just viewed the 2nd DVD and the lesson on QuickMasking was worth the price of your program."

-Carol Smidt

Orion, Thanks a lot for the quick response. I'm relatively new to Photoshop and I'm very excited to learn from your exercises and examples!

"Photoshop Designer gives a unique approach to learning the basics of Photoshop and the motivation to create high quality artwork. Orion’s generous offer to grant complete access to his portfolio pieces for analysis makes this a total package for graphic designers who want to uncover the secrets of the professional graphic artist. I wish I had access to this kind of training when I was new to Photoshop."
