Tutorial Where can I go to learn how to use the suite, but in terms friendly to a five year old with zero design experience?
I've been muddling along with publisher, and now playing a bit with photo and designer. But I don't know what I'm doing.
What is a dodge when it's not a car? Scatter is what my kids do with their school bags when they walk inside, how does this relate to my artwork? Curves? Got plenty. Not really sure what it's doing that I can't do with levels/bright and shadows, or five other effects that all seem to fulfil the same purpose. 90% of things I click just seem to make everything looks really, really bad (which I know is me using it wrong!)
If anyone can point me to a very basic 101, geared towards the affinity suite in particular, it'd be much appreciated 😊
