The most significant accomplishment I feel I've reached is just the ability to now navigate Photoshop. Before I had never used it, now I think I could manage most of the tutorials and more difficult things... in time. The thing I was screwing up the most was trying to make things fit into a picture. I really struggled making things look as though they belong. Granted there is a lot of work I could still put in, but it is quite a bit better than when I started learning. Messing with the saturation, feathering the edges and changing the colors help to blend them in. I haven't mastered it by far, but it's better. Besides perhaps my final, all of my work has been simply showing that I understand the concepts and methods used in Photoshop. I did learn with my midterm, it's not what you show, but how it interacts with the rest of what is there. I tried to just show images of my message, and got a jumble of pictures with no meaning.
