What exactly are you trying to accomplish by "learning photoshop"? If you give us an idea maybe it will be easier to help. Are you trying to add color overlays to photos? Are you trying to composite? Are you trying to do beauty retouching? Or are you trying to do just basic color correction?

Just basic functions and getting used to it really. I just got the software so right now I'm pretty inexperienced. I'm learning mainly because I think it's fun, but I would also like to be able to color my sketches in the future. Plus I'm doing some web design projects and can always use better looking graphics.

I spent a lot of time on this today:
