They say a picture is worth a thousand words. It holds true for a blog as well. Images are a powerful tool that makes the content on a blog look exciting. As a blogger, I am always on a look-out for tools that can help me create and edit images and designs. They say that Photoshop software is an effective tool for image editing task and to apply various effects to simple images to transform them into beautiful outputs. Learning Photoshop has been on my mind for long now, but I always found it too overwhelming.
