The Graphics Caveman!

Hi, my name is Kai Yee of Photoshop-How-To.com. I worked as a graphic designer for over 25 years in the Washington, DC area. I started my career in the Paleolithic days when artists cut up galleys and did paste up on illustration boards called "mechanicals". My first real job was as a technical illustrator for the Smithsonian Institution. Back in the day, you were considered pretty slick if you can draw a consistent smooth line with a ruling pen! My career as a graphic designer took an interesting turn around 1983, when the Apple Macintosh appeared out of nowhere. Suddenly, this new computer technology opened doors for me to enter such exciting arenas as video production, 3D animation, multimedia, web design, and music production for projects with Fortune 500 companies and the Federal Government.

Along with the opportunities, I've also had to constantly learn new tricks. This is not necessarily a bad thing. The very nature of the communications industry demands change and innovation. However, I'm sure that you can learn the lessons of this industry less painfully and expensively what I went through. That's why I developed Photoshop-How-To.com. This is my way of giving back the generosity that others in the industry have shown to me. I hope that you enjoy the lessons in Photoshop-How-To.com. I will be constantly updated these lessons to offer the most value to you. You can also help me by filling out my survey as to what lessons you will find most helpful in the future.

Yours truly,

Kai Yee
