love you. love your videos. learnt so much from you over the past couple of months, more so than from anyone else over the years I've been using Photoshop. The reason I love your content is because you're not one of these arseholes that will only show so much and keep back the real high quality information for paying customers. You actually go all out and seem really happy to share your knowledge and I love that. It's not surprising you're at the top of everyone's top 10 Photoshop channels.
thank you for this free learnings
