Art and design computing and Photoshop
Whilst struggling with the GIMP to do my photo manipulation stuff, I'd been looking for a course to learn Photoshop (one which isn't really expensive as most of them are) for ages. I finally found one at City Lit. So that meant that I had to trek from Oxford to London every week, but the course was conveniently on Saturday mornings and only cost about 140 GBP for 7 weeks tuition.
It was fantastic. I was the only techy there - all the other students were arty types so it was great to see Photoshop being used in really creative and exciting ways. I finally learnt how to do all the things I'd wanted to do with pictures (and not just being able to stick my mates' faces onto other people's bodies).
