It's pretty straight forward if you've got Photoshop. I had to buy the Photoshop CS Bible for a digital imaging class I took a while back.. I tried to use the book once to figure out how to do something and it was no help at all because it simply has too much information to sift through.

I have certain tricks I use to chop stuff that they never taught us in class.. I think most people teach themselves so there's lots of way to go about doing the same thing.

Very true, I have been using photoshop randomly for about 10 years and I still learn new stuff all the time. There is no right way to do anything which is why photoshop is so great.
