Four years go.
I joined a video game forum called Neoseeker.
&wanted to make my own signatures.

I started off with Paint.
Then Photoplus [pretty decent].
Moved on to the amazing GIMP [free photoshop; it's incredible]
&now Photoshop<3
I've progressed loads.

Back when I joined TiBB. I wasn't great to say the least but I think I've improved. I remember Anthony (Legend) giving me a keygen for PSP. Never forgot that favour.

I can't even remember.
I was quite fond of Paint though, and putting graphics made on Paint onto Piczo sites.

2004/5. I was a part of a Mary Kate and Ashley board [LOL] and they had a graphics board, so i requested a sig and i wondered how to make your own so i asked on that board and people helped me out.
If it wasn't for me being an MKA fan back then, i'd never have started designing LOL

I started off with Paint Shop Pro 8, then I only started using Photoshop a year ago.

(C)hris taught me the basics, then I just practiced on free trial photoshop for the month you get it, then I bought it off Ebay!

Then just progressed from there from pracitce and making banners for people (:

2003/4 - My mum managed to download paint shop pro and at first I only really used it to play around with other peoples photos. Then When I joined Tibb I got into graphics a lot more and taught myself how to do sigantures, and taught myself photoshop.

About 3 years ago (11 lol) I started using stuff like Microsoft word to edit and make stuff lmao. Then I discovered paint and thought it was the best thing in the world. After that I moved onto moonfruit (Originally to make a website) but ended up finding it was like a free photoshop and really easy to use too so I just print screened lots of banners of it. I ended up with Photoshop just about a month before I got here and since then I've been improving on it loads.

In the summer, I really wanted to make some graphics so I learned from a multitude of Youtube and internet tutorials. I'm still learning some of the finer and more complicated points though.
