Most Incredible Photoshop Tutorials

Paired with yesterday’s 24 Perfect Vectors, I wanted to list off some incredible Photoshop tutorials I’ve found on the web that will help you utilize those resources. I’ve done my best to select a wide variety of tutorials from web graphics, to photo enhancement, to just plain incredible.

Remember, its not about the destination, instead its all about the journey. Don’t neglect a tutorial because you aren’t interested in the final product. Instead, follow each one, step by step. I can personally attest that the knowledge you will gain about the various tools and functions that are available for you to use in Photoshop will be much more beneficial than the final image.

What is CSS?

  • CSS stands for Cascading Style Sheets
  • Styles define how to display HTML elements
  • Styles are normally stored in Style Sheets
  • Styles were added to HTML 4.0 to solve a problem
  • External Style Sheets can save you a lot of work
  • External Style Sheets are stored in CSS files
  • Multiple style definitions will cascade into one

CSS stands for Cascading Style Sheets. It is a way to divide the content from the layout on web pages.

How it works:

A style is a definition of fonts, colors, etc.

Each style has a unique name: a selector.

The selectors and their styles are defined in one place.

In your HTML contents you simply refer to the selectors whenever you want to activate a certain style.

For example:

Instead of defining fonts and colors each time you start a new table cell, you can define a style and then, simply refer to that style in your table cells.

Compare the following examples of a simple table:

Classic HTML








this is line 1
this is line 2
this is line 3



With CSS (assuming that a selector called subtext is defined)




this is line 1
this is line 2
this is line 3



While CSS lets you separate the layout from the content, it also lets you define the layout much more powerfully than you could with classic HTML.
