You Cant Teach An Old N00b New Tricks

I had same with my father...and got MUCH Computer experience...maybe cos he used Paint Shop Pro before...he maked maps to Motocross Madness 2.Under name Mx_Pain

 

Trying to teach my brother after hours of experiance he STILL asks questions like how do you make a new layer, he's hopeless.

 

you'll have that with the older generation.

 

15 year olds dont have high pitched voices :censored: :censored: :censored: :censored: :censored: :censored: :censored: :censored: :censored: :censored: .

replying to actual topic:
once i had to show my uncle how to properly use the mouse

 

You gotta start somewhere.

 

heh my dad used to teach me how to do stuff, now i know like 20 times more than him, i guess your somehow right but in other ways not

 

wow you call your dad a noob?

 

People who are new to things don't just magically figure them out within minutes. You're obviously not fit to teach him if you get impatient with him because he doesn't know what he's doing (do you expect him to know it all before even touching it?). I suggest pointing him to good-tutorials, if you're incapable of showing him a fair bit of techniques without getting irritated of course.

 

my brother still teaches me hard stuff sometimes but ive never gone through that


and yea wth 15 year olds dont have high pitched voices im 14 goin to 15 and i have a deep voice

 

try teaching over the PHONE damn its so annoying
my uncle wanted to make his own logo with PS and it took so long to explain.

 

Yeh of course he probably thinks a beer or something

 

eh, I had to teach my older sister photoshop.
luckily, she's pretty computer inclined, so I didn't have to teach her much.
pretty soon, I'm gonna have to teach my girlfriend photoshop though. -_-
lol.

 

My mum wanted to edit something in Photoshop so I taught her... well, tried to.
It took over half an hour just to get a good text effect.
She's like, "I don't like the look of that now" or "How do I get this kind of effect?" and it was hopeless. :\

 

I was actually thinking of doing that... :blink:

 

My sister (19) used Photoshop CS2, but she didn't knew how to use it.


So, I teach her a lil'bit, and after a while: "What does this program do..?"


OMFG!! I really freaked out xD
I teached her stuff and all, and after a long time, she asked that!! xD xD
