24 || Basic Photoshop Tools and Functions
Although the title says Photoshop tools, some of these tools are used in other editing softwares too. Before you start making graphics you need to understand the basics and one of the most important things to learn first are the tools.

1) Rectangular Marquee Tool: Use this tool to make selections on your image, in a rectangular shape. This changes the area of your image that is affected by other tools or actions to be within the defined shape.
2) Move Tool: Use this tool to, well, move things. Usually you use it to move a Layer around after it has been placed. Hold the [Shift] key to limit the movements to vertical/horizontal.
3) Polygon Lasso Tool: Use this to draw selections in whatever shape you would like. To close the selection, either click on the beginning point (you'll see the cursor change when you're on it), or just double-click.
