PhotoShop Lesson No.1

Hello! It's Meji. This is my first time teaching you a photoshop lesson. I'm not very good at photoshop, but I'll try hard to make my lesson easy for beginners to understand. :P
Today's lesson is all about using Vintage effect, and the picture bellow is a good example of it.

From now on, I'll teach you the process of making this image. But, before you start, you certainly have to open an image you want to use Vintage Effect on! :P

After opening your image, go to image→Adjustments→Brightness/ Contrast.

If you go to Brightness/ Contrast, you will see this window popping up, and adjust the brightness into -27, and contrast into -18, then press 'okay'.
Now, make a new layer, (press on an symbol looking like the one below, to make a new layer)
And use Paint bucket tool to paint the layer blue. (press on an symbol looking like the one below, to use the paint bucket tool.) Finally, change your image's opacity to 50% instead of 100%, and change the effect into Exclusion.

Your finally finished! :P
Wasn't it easy enough? And if it wasn't easy, then keep on trying, and you'll get better! XD

Thank you for listening to my lesson, and see you later! The finished image bellow, ↓
