lol Dude if I had bothered to read the instructions on any of the photo editing software I own. I honestly have found that playing around with it to see what I can make is just more fun.
Granted longer and the harder of ways to do things. but seriously have you ever tried to read the manuel for some of these programs. They aren't written in english. Geek maybe, but not english. Granted I speak some geek, but not enough for these manuels lol
