Learn how to use Photoshop by following tutorials
One of the best ways to learn how to use Adobe Photoshop
The first tutorial takes a normal photograph and turns it into a popout image like the examples below.
You can find this tutorial online at http://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=2288434 where you will learn how to use Photoshop layers, paint brush, feathering, selection and erasor tools. You will also pick up a few handy keyboard shortcuts along the way. I recommend this tutorial from beginners to intermediate.
The second Photoshop tutorial involves taking a picture of your car and placing a face onto it, similar to the movie cars. You can find this one at: http://forums.nasioc.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1151725
Following the Photoshop tutorial above you'll learn how to use transform and flip layers, set opacity, rotate and scale images. Furthermore, you'll use the magnetic laso and pen tool as well as Photoshop brushes before ending with healing and clone stamp tools.

Thanks for the link to this tutorial. I am not a photoshop user but have played with it to throw a color balance over certain images and found this easy to follow.
Have a look at my image
This took about 5 minutes and I really didn't know what I was doing. I usually use Paint Shop Pro to work on images because Photoshop always seemed more complex but I think I might do some more tutorials and learn Photoshop as it does do a better job.
Thanks again and I'll be back for more.
