Help with adobe photoshop elements 6?

Question

what are good tools to use when photoshopping self portraits? how can i make it look really good and profesional-ish?

Answer 1

That question can not be properly answered in a few sentences.

There are countless tutorials out there, on youtube as well as many other sites. Even the photoshop proper tutorials would be of a lot of help to you.

Or go to the library, they have many books on the subject.

Then experiment with what you have learned.

It all takes some time and plenty of effort.
