Today is meant for getting familiar with the interface. NOT creating a beautiful work of art. Have fun with it today.
BY the end of class you should be able to download brushes, navigate between brushes and sizes, change the color, erase, undo things, and save.

Brush size
To change the brush size you must have the brush selected to get the option bar for it. When you click on the down arrow the first thing is the size sliding bar.
Changing Colors
At the bottom of your tool bar are two squares. These are your colors. Whatever is on top is what is activated. Click on the top box to get to the color picker menu. Select different colors here.
Erasing and undoing
The eraser tool can be used to erase stuff. Just like the paint brush...it can take on any brush download you can find.
To undo or step backwards go up to EDIT and select what you need. Learn the keyboard shortcuts for this.

Saving
To save go up to File-Save as . Always title your work YOUR NAME and then the PROJECT NAME .
Save as a Photoshop file if you are NOT done. This will save your layers.
To upload and submit to weebly always save as a JPEG. Medium is good. Weebly will not take files over 10MB. If it's something we want to print nice later save another larger file at a higher quality.
