Yes I did enjoy it, however it would help if no mater what the subject is the instructor did not assume that I have a level of knowledge that allows him not to explain as completely as he might have. Hope I made myself clear.

This was an excellent tutorial. I already knew how to do alot of this, as Ive been using Photoshop since version 3 back in the day, but I did pick up a few things I never realized before. It was also fun to see how someone else goes about doing certain things a bit differently. The thing I loved the most about this tutorial? Mark supplied us with the working files so I could work right along with him every single step of the way. Its frustrating when you are trying to learn from someone and you dont have the same files as they do. It was such a relief and made learning so much more fun and relaxing. I wish more instructors were this helpful from the get-go.
