Me too!!! 😀 We’ve got to build this website for our Internet Techs & Apps module this semester, and I’m supposed to design a slick header and logo for it. Well, the whole site, really. I’ll be handling all the coding, but my group mates are killing it with gathering the data, sketching layouts, and all that jazz. That stuff’s the hardest for me, so I’m super, SUPER grateful they’re not making me deal with it.
But here’s the kicker, I’m terrible at graphic design! 😛 Well, not totally. It’s just that I haven’t had time (ugh, not that excuse again!) to mess around with it. Graphic design’s never really been my thing. I barely touched Photoshop back in my Windo$ days either… But now that I’ve got to step up for this project, I figured it’s a good chance to try out GIMP. Hoping it’s easy to pick up since I’m not hooked on those evil proprietary tools like… you know… Photoshop (yep, I said it! :D).
So, I’m scouring the web for GIMP tutorials and stumbled across some cool sites so far. I’ll stash them in my scrapbook for whenever I need them (err… scrapbook??? That’s a story for another post, hee hee…).
OK, that’s it for now, folks! Hit me up if you know any awesome GIMP tutorial sites. I’ll keep the Links section updated as I dig up more goodies.
