In the past month we've been working in Photoshop and it's been tough. Due to my absence in the past week I've been pretty behind on all my work. But all that aside I don't really enjoy Photoshop. I find that when I work on something I prefer to have something that's a little versatile. That's not the software's fault though, I've only ever seen it used in one way.
To me Photoshop's reliance on a preexisting photo makes it stifling and limited. But that's the whole point of it: to edit photos. It also doesn't help that I don't take a particular interest in photo editing. I found that the coloration parts of the projects are easy but the cropping never seems to work out for me. It's also very time consuming. Sometimes it feels like I walk into class, hit start, and then the bell rings. One thing I can certainly appreciate is Photoshop's simplicity. None of it is difficult but it takes getting used to and a little teaching. This week has been a nightmare with all the work to do, but Photoshop wasn't so bad of a thing to return to, especially considering how much work I had to do in other classes. I hope that the other software we'll work with in this class will be as easy to learn and use. In conclusion, despite not enjoying my experience with Photoshop I hope the other things we work on in class will have it's user interface.
