browsing the web.When I started dabbling with PS I was looking for tutorials or web sites where I could learn the basics and I came across PSC.I joined back in 2004 but it wasn't until 2006 that I actually started participating in the day to day contests.I love the community feel here,lots of great creative talented people to learn Ps with.Also I enjoy checking out the day to day comps and seeing the chops people come up with,some incredibly awesome images other not so incredibly awesome images,but almost always interesting and inspiring.

What style of chop do you prefer to create?

Filters, brushes and techniques: Which do you use, and not use, and why?

When do you know that you have it just right, or is it constant changes up until, or after, you post?
