Hey and thanks for reading/flaming my post. I was an avid user back on PS 7 and a little of CS 1 in school, sadly I have only been using Autocad for the past 7 years and haven't used Photoshop in at least 5 years. I bought a photoshop CS 5 tips book and I found a PDF of all of the shortcuts BUT I need some help. I am looking for some beginner Tutorials or advice as to where to start, where I was once a moderate user and had all of my favorite commands memorized. Any help would be appreciated and I might throw you some coins for an exceptional tip or info!

I also am interested in changing shortcut keys, if this is even possible?

Feel free to PM me your secret info's.

-Dave.
