Link One feature that this video talks about is using guides. Overall this tool seems to be very easy to use for the most part and should be very helpful to make sure everything is symmetric. One thing that might be difficult to within using guides is adjusting them. Link This video talks about many of the different tools. One thing that is easy about this is that many of them are similar or the same to tools that we have used in Illustrator and/or Photoshop. However, some of the tools that are not present in Photoshop or illustrator might be difficult for me to use at first. Link This video also talk about using guides. One feature that it mentions that might be hard to use is fitting the images that I want to use into the guides. One feature that seems very simple yet extremely useful is clicking 'W' to remove the guides and all other tools off the screen so that you can preview what your final project would look like.

  (Won't let me Jpeg version of project but the psd file is in dropbox) Artist Statement: I chose to put myself hiking up a mountain because I felt that it would be easy for me incorporate my logo into this image. I incorporated my logo into the clouds next to the mountain to represent calmness and peace in nature. I also added a dragon and adjusted the saturation on the image to make it more fantasy/surreal.
