Artistically Challenged / Creativity Challenge

Tutorials. I never went to school for graphic design, but everyone I know treats me as if I did! I can render all sorts of 3D designs or manipulate a photo (photoshop) and I never had anyone teach me. I taught myself. I was tired of having others do things for me. Depending on what program you have or want to use (I can recommend some good free ones) you can start doing tutorials. Start small, how to remove red-eyes, how change the color of hair and clothes or eyes, how to remove blemishes or lighten skin.. I did almost every tutorial that caught my interest online, and I did 5 or 6 tutorials of the same thing to learn different ways to do it. You'll be an fairly skilled in design in no time. =)
