Icon Tutorials for Beginners
I was wondering if anyone knew of any tutorials for making icons that are geared towards absolute beginners. And when I say beginner, I mean BEGINNER. I just took a Photoshop class, but they didn't teach any of that kind of thing. So if anyone knows of anything that is helpful, I'd really appreciate it. I'm using Photoshop CS3, by the way. (Oh, and I already have the tutorial for beginners that Heidi made, which was very helpful )

LOL I was going to post the one I made a long time ago but I see you've already used it Emma! I'm glad it was useful for you, I've had a lot of people request that tutorial and they've all said it was very helpful and useful! Jess do you want the link for my tutorial?
