Photoshop is a massive jam-packed system, with hundreds of elements one can experiment with, however because the program is so free, so therefore there are some do’s and do not’s hidden in Photoshop. Do’s and do not’s are mostly ones personal preference, opinions and experience, however these are the most common do’s and do not’s.

DO

• Firstly, the main and crucial do to Photoshop Adobe is to practice. For instance, “Practice makes perfect” This statement applies exceptionally as there are so many hidden tools and further functions to be found and improved in Photoshop. By practicing a lot, one will figure out their own do’s and do not’s as they will understand the program further.
• A huge do is usually a successful user and editor of Photoshop will understand when editing a photo always use ‘The Rule of Thirds’, also known as ‘Hotspots’ to achieve the best and rewarded outcomes. 
• Also do always use tutorials as many tutorials exist on the Internet and are to be discovered by you. Photoshop tutorials are very successful and effective as they can help anyone to improve. For instance, never place the main subject in the center, if it is then simply crop it in Photoshop and use the move tool to place it in a hotspot.
• Lastly, always save your work, as Photoshop doesn’t save by itself, so always to be sure, save it every few minutes.

DON’T

• For instance, primarily when editing a photo, you can get carried away and in fact ruin your image instead of aiming to make it aesthetically pleasing, to avoid ruining a photo, don’t over sharpen an image. Don’t over sharpen an image, as it will start to become unrealistic and artificial.
• Another simple point is don’t give up. Many people, especially beginners will become either frustrated or disappointed with their initial outcomes, but it will get simpler with practice and sources.
