My Board

Hi folks.. My name's Chris and I'm from San Diego, CA. I own a retired racing greyhound named Sequoia and I'll be adopting 2 others when they've finished their racing careers in Jacksonville, FL.

It's these dogs that've turned me on to a whole other world of racing and photography. I recently purchased a Nikon D50 dSLR camera. I plan on starting up a little side business taking pics of people's pets in whatever setting they'd like, and so I'd like to maximize the potential of my photos.

Inasmuch, I have a Photoshop7 on my computer, but, I have absolutely NO idea how to use it. I see tutorials online and it says to "open this up" or ""create this..." and I'm sitting here like this... /head_hurts_kr.gif\' class=\'bbc_emoticon\' alt=\'(ow)\' />

What I'm hoping for iis to find something that will be able to teach someone who knows ABSOLUTELY NOTHING about it. As if I were just born and learning about the world for the first time.

Hopefully, I don't come across as too helples.. I am pretty smart and pick things up quickly and so I'm hoping with the help of those on this board, I'm able to maximize my potential /smile.gif\' class=\'bbc_emoticon\' alt=\':)\' />

Welcome GreyHoundDaddy!

I am Paradox, your local spaz, ignore my split-personality...

No, ignore him, he's the split-personality!

Shut up...

I wish I were dead....

Anyway, if you need novice help, you can ask me, I am a novice too! But I rock none the less...

I am 12 years old, I am going to be 13 this year! So ignore my childishness..../smile.gif\' class=\'bbc_emoticon\' alt=\':)\' />

Oh, no.. I'm a messageboard veteran... trolls are everywhere and best left alone. Won't find me stirring the pot /smile.gif\' class=\'bbc_emoticon\' alt=\':)\' />

Hi Greyhound /smile.gif\' class=\'bbc_emoticon\' alt=\':)\' />

I\'m useless when it comes to graphics, but there are other\'s out there who I\'m sure will help you out.

We own the server that the chat is on, Greyhound; there aren\'t any trolls in KillaGraphix chat, usually just KillaGraphix members and staff, once in awhile some friends from other places stop by to say hi, but it\'s a very safe chatroom and your ip is cloaked. However, if you would rather stick to the forum (not literally) that\'s fine too. The boards are checked quite frequently and there should be someone around who can answer your questions /smile.gif\' class=\'bbc_emoticon\' alt=\':)\' />
