If you hadnt seen the info I am running a 4 week workshop starting September 3rd on using teh Selection Tools in DIP9. Its much more in depth than teh tutorial in the tutorials section. You will actually be making things such as tags and frames in the first week with the marquee tool.
If you want to learn how to remove those distracting backgrounds in your photos then the second week of class will be ideal. See how to combine the freehand and edgefinder tools for the best results as well as a few other tricks for wonderful results.
In week three learn the secrets behind removing colours with the magic wand or changing colours without losing the details in your pics.
In week four use all of the selection tools to create a complete layout!
I hope to see you there!
