    I know that youre (the author) just trying to make another tutorial list on the net to make some cash via your blog, & im all about that.. but my issue with all these “tutorials” is that they only teach process. not composition or creative value. I went to a major art college and majored in graphic design and advertising design, and what i see here, along with most tutorials on the web today, are shit. they look bad. most of you without any formal training think they are the best thing EvEr!! but no, wrong. you may learn some techniques and etc, but as far as actually looking good enough to be creative, beautiful pieces of art. they are not. just my two cents, i ask everyone to take the techniques from these and improve upon the compositions, otherwise, what you think looks great is only relative to your lack of experience. keep that in mind.

    John,
    I agree that some are better than others. Most of the tutorials that are chosen for this list (or any of my lists) are selected because they teach some type of valuable technique for working with Photoshop. As you said, they teach the process. I agree with you that this is only half of the equation, but I don’t agree that we all think they are the best thing ever. My response to you is, if you think these tutorials are crap and people should be taught better design, why don’t you do it? The audience is there.
