WTF is up with Photoshop??

[trisha0612]

Do you need a special training in order to do ANYTHING on photoshop I'm really struggling here! So I requested some templates for the flowerart from one amazing lady on the forum yesterday....I have the background...and I have the emblem box to put different texts in...All i would like to do is to have the emblem box put in front of the background...and have it enabled so that I may type different things when I will need to! I also would not mind some color changes.....

Is this even possible? I'm about to pull my hair out!!

Do you have your layers shown on the right hand side of your screen? That always helps me. It sounds like you just need to put your text box layer ontop of your background layer.

How do I use the layers options though?? I'm so confused....sorry!!!

photoshop is tough. it took me years to learn it. do you have elements? wonder if it could do what you need?

It's tough.. I've worked with it for years and still couldn't tell you what to do to help.. we had two full day training sessions when I first started to learn the basics. Is there another program that can help?

I'm not sure....this is FI's computer.....my brother is a computer genius sometimes...maybe I will have him mess with it!!

It does take a lot of playing around to learn it. You can somehow make it so your layers show up all the time. That's what I do. Otherwise I get confused. Is there a View option?

are you still having problems with your layers ordering? photoshop is like breaing for me ill gladly call you and talk you through it. that way you can describe better what you are looking at and i can guide you through step by step. once you get the basics down its really quite simple.
