Step 1:
Locate your Photoshop Application and open it.

Step 2:
When it opens, you will see a start-up/credits screen that looks like this.

Step 3:
Next, go under the Photoshop pull-down, located at the top. Choose "About Photoshop" while HOLDING DOWN the COMMAND (Apple Key) key.

Step 4:
You will then see this screen instead of the standard screen.

Step 1:
Start with the basics. If your pictures look spotty, it could be dust. Give your digital camera lens a good cleaning with a blower brush.

Step 2:
Check your image editing program's capabilities. Adobe Photoshop is a popular image editing program used by people at all proficiencies. It can be a little difficult to learn; Adobe Elements is easier. Chances are you already have an image editing program on your computer. Many PCs come with Microsoft Photo Editor. See if your image editing program comes with a tutorial to give you a quick tour of its capabilities.

Step 3:
Change the size of your digital image by cropping and resizing it. A common mistake is standing too far from the subject. The cropping tool allows you to take just what you want from the picture and get rid of the rest. Crop, cut and then paste as a new picture.

Step 4:
Alter the brightness or contrast of a photo to make the lighting closer to what you want. Often, you'll find a little sun on the toolbar. This is the brightness button. Unless you're absolutely positive you want to keep this level of brightness (or darkness), save the picture under a different name after you make your changes.

Step 5:
Fix red eyes. When you take a picture in a dark area, sometimes the camera flash reflects off someone's retina, causing red eye. See if your image editing program has a red eye removal tool.

Step 6:
Use Adobe's Spot Healing Brush to make blemishes disappear on digital photos. Size the brush a little larger than the blemish. Put the cursor over the blemish and click it away.

Step 7:
Rid yourself of strange things coming out of people's heads with a clone stamp tool. Find a similar area nearby—the source. Use Alt-click and click. Move to the area you want to remove. Click several times to replace the object with pixels from the source.

Step 1:
Start the Dreamweaver program and open the page to be edited.

Step 2:
From the Edit menu, choose Replace. The Replace dialog box will pop up.

Step 3:
Choose the replacement option you want from the menu. Find in Current Document replaces all instances of your search term in the current (open) document; Current Site replaces all instances in the entire site; and Folder replaces all instances in a selected folder.

Step 4:
Select what will be replaced from the Find What menu. Replace Text replaces only the text on the page (ignoring the HTML); HTML Source searches for a specific string of text and commands from the source code; Advanced Text searches both text and HTML, or either one; and Tag allows you to designate specific tags to be replaced.

Step 5:
Select Replace to replace each instance separately; choose Replace All to replace all instances at once.

Step 6:
Save the page when finished.
