Ask HN: I want to learn photoshop for web design, how do I get started?

I am good in almost full-stack of web development except design. Not the html,css stuff but the photoshop stuff. I want to close this gap, how do I get started?

I think learning designing is more important than learning Photoshop, because it's just a tool.<p>I recommend you to watch some play by play from peep code. Since I watched them I understood the process to design a good UI:<p><a href="https://peepcode.com/products/ryan-singer-ux" rel="nofollow">https://peepcode.com/products/ryan-singer-ux</a><p><a href="https://peepcode.com/products/play-by-play-kneath" rel="nofollow">https://peepcode.com/products/play-by-play-kneath</a>

IMHO with CSS3 you can design a site that's nice enough in just HTML/CSS... if you're already a web developer I would spend your time designing in the actual HTML/CSS. Start trying to mimic good design elements. You probably won't get to the absolute top tier of design, but my assumption is you want to get to "good enough".<p>If you're insistent on Photoshop first, I would start with a bunch of tutorials: <a href="http://webdesignledger.com/tutorials/20-high-quality-photoshop-web-design-tutorials" rel="nofollow">http://webdesignledger.com/tutorials/20-high-quality-photosh...</a> <a href="http://webdesign.tutsplus.com/" rel="nofollow">http://webdesign.tutsplus.com/</a>
