Photoshop is a very sophisticated graphics editor and has a high learning curve to fully exploit it. However for basic editing, resizing, color enhancement, special effects fairly straight forward. Most of the experience will come with practice so just grab an image and start playing with the functions under the menus. There are a large number of tutorial sites out there.

Here is an extensive list of tutorial sites:

This one is an on-line course with e-mail updates. --I recommend starting here--:
