Yes i can save it but $300 a week is not much it goes upto $400 on good weeks but still i have more important things to pay for, saving for a deposit on a house for one + helping mum out a lot (single mum 2 kids no child support etc)

i dont have to explain myself :lol:

i can deffinately see where your going on the cash per week, however at this point im not saving on a deposit for a house and i dont think many other 16/17 year olds have put much thought into it, although with the way the economy is going u could probably get your foot in the door at a good price but the loan could bite u in the a**. i make around the same as you on a good week i suppose. i jumped straight out of school in year 11 and straight into work. i can earn 400 - 500 on a good week or if i choose to work weekends i can wind up on about 650.

Yeah man. You're right, you dont have to explain yourself. If $750 is too much money up front on the lowest possible wages you can get, then fuk! thats understandable (to few by the looks of it). Everyone telling him "ohh man no more photochops, more real mods! dont say you dont have the money i know you do! go on spend it! spend all your HARD earned cash on something you dont really want! do it! do it now!" all you peeps, fuk off. now lets change the topic (back).

Dude your chopping skillz are pretty fab (:) ...no pun intended :roll:), did you just pick it up by yourself or did school did you a bit of a helping hand? Just curious cause I used to be a bit of a macromedia Dreamweaver/Fireworks wizz, but compared to Photoshop the technology is rather dated and quite primitive. I would love to get into Photoshop but stepping straight into a program as advanced as PS can be quite mind boggling at first, as I'm sure you know. Got any good Photoshop tutorial sites or anything that might be useful to getting started?

Well said man :wink:
At school i did VCD (Visual, Communication & Design) and one of our assignment was to create a CD cover using photoshop so teacher taught us the basic photoshop skills. I really enjoyed it so i downloaded it and pretty much taught my self everything i know. At my school they actually have a Photoshop class as an elective but only for year 10's, not sure if you can carry it to year 11 though.
When ever im bored i just play around with it, never save the stuff though unless i really like it, The chop of my bonnet with the bulge is good yeah but i coudnt match the colour for s**t for some reason
:?

I got no sites to help you out mate, have a search in google and see what comes up.
Do you have PS yet or?
