Paint Shop Pro tutorials?

I can usually translate the Paintshop tutorials over to PSP but it takes me a while to find the menus and options and stuff. I guess it would be easier if it were in PSP speak verses PS speak. Call me lazy hehe.

I could try to translate PS to PSP if anyone wanted to but I have no resources if it comes to a command I have no clue about.

How to take photos in poor lighting situations where you can't use your own lighting. Such as when you're sitting in the audience at a school play.

Poor lighting tutorial is a good idea! I agree!

Sports photography! I have taken photos of people dancing in the past which look terrible due to the blur, so I think that would fall under 'sports photography'

How about a practical tutorial on the rule of thirds with some more examples of cropping / adjusting images in PP to make the rule "happen" for imperfect shots?

I try to apply it in my photography but find that in that when shooting wildlife / sports that I'm not as quick as I need to be to frame the subject and end up trying to fix in PP by creating grids at 33% across my workspace and then cropping my pics into place.

This one has to do with layering, but what I am trying to do is get a face to pop out of a brick wall - think Pink Floyd...

Plus, anything that Windrider does!

Since we all use different PP software, can there be subgroups like PSE, PSP, Photoshop, GIMP, and the list goes on and on.

I feel the same way about PSP. I need basic, basic - like how to save a picture before working on it, formats and stuff. I just get really stupid sometimes and need a step by step. Then afterward I say to myself, "I knew that." Must be intimidation.

That would be great. A GIMP Layers tutorial. A GIMP tutorial on how to selectively lighten or darken an image (that may be part of the layers tutorial for all I know)
