Hey, I am looking for advanced photoshop design training for creating websites and templates. I kind of know the basics and such and am not bad already. I am looking to learn how to do things like these:
http://www.surreal-media.com/templates/product_color_preview.php?product_id=156&color=red
http://www.surreal-media.com/templates/product_color_preview.php?product_id=129&color=red
And also learn l about designing with tips and tricks and such. If you know of a dvd or you yourself can help me out I would really appreciate it. I also have no problem paying, I am not going to ask for help and not give anything in return.
Any information will be very much appreciated.
Thanks

You'll find some of the top experts in Photoshop (as well as other Adobe apps).

Hope this helps!

lynda.com also has lots of tutorials for you to use. a yearly subscription is awesome as you have tut's on so many things. easily the cheapest way to start into the programs.

I'm with CurtisMcHale about lynda.com, it is great. But I have a free account in the sense that one of the large corporations that I freelanced for 8 years for has a corporate account and I have the log in info. :D

However, it's most useful for me with subjects that are within my realm of experience, such as programs used in graphic design and print, or my hobbies like 3D and video.

For subjects for which I am a fish out of water, like web design and Dreamweaver, I do not enjoy learning from Lynda.com, tutorials, training DVDS or anything like that. That is why I just signed up at Community College for Web Design classes. It is a lengthy, committed, in depth, non-instant gratification method of learning, but for me it is really the best method to learn subjects that I feel I need to know thoroughly.
