hey there...

I thought it'd be a good i dea if i were to start a discussion for using photoshop with MOHO.

I wanna know how to do specific backgrounds like trees, leaves, buildings and the like

im not really sure what you want... but you could draw your background in photoshop, creating a new layer for each element, export each layer as png
with transparency... (save for web for optimized results.) and rebuild the scene in moho.

Im not sue what suggestions i could give you, because the way you draw in photosho pis a style unto itself... i suggest search google if you wanna figure outstuff, generally airbrushing things is what experts do.

There are hundreds if not thousands of tutorials on using photoshop on the web and numerous books.

Here's a good link to get you started:

http://www.sumaleth.com/links/index.shtml

Not just a photoshop link, but it has some really great drawing and painting lessons too. And knowing how to draw/paint better, is always helpful.

Good luck! :D

PhotoShop is the reason I bought my first Mac those many years ago - it simply fookin rawks! I have used it since version 3.0 back in the early 90's and it has only gotten better over time. If you want to find some good tutorials and inspiration the site I used to hit a lot was http://www.ozones.com/ .He had some tutorials for creating realistic glass buttons that still put those prepackaged styles to shame.
