THESE VIDEOS USE AN OLD VERSION OF PHOTOSHOP but they are great to help a person understand Photoshop basics - they helped me, tremendously.
 
Videos are accessed/viewed by launching the HTML pages in each folder which offer
easy navigation of the videos.

1. These tutorials are ancient (circa 2002) and feature Photoshop 6/7.  Sounds 
    crazy, but...... 

2. For anyone wanting to learn the basics of Photoshop these were the easiest to 
    follow and the most helpful I have ever found.  And....

3. While Photoshop has changed, considerably over the years, the basics remains 
    the same. For anyone just getting started these videos remain a great starting 
    point.

4. These two "sections" were originally released as CDs and used a browser-based 
    menu to display .mov files embedded in HTML (web pages).  Very shortly after 
    they were released zero browsers continued to support .mov file streamed in 
    HTML.

5. As a consequence of the above, I converted the .mov files to .mp4 files.  The 
    menus are well organized and are a great way to view the videos. The videos 
    display fine using FIREFOX.  Using something like Chrome you'll get a message 
    that says the plugin is not supported (if you try to use the web-based menu for 
    viewing the videos). 

6. Obviously, the videos can just be viewed in a media player without using the web- 
    based menu, etc.

7. I've included some sample code which - if a person had the time and inclination - 
    could be used to make the whole thing work using Chrome and Chrome variants.    

8. One more time: If you know ZERO about Photoshop and are just getting started, 
    this is the best set of tutorials I ever found.  I went on the become fairly good 
    with all future versions of Photoshop as these provided an excellent foundation 
    for many of the basics...which have not changed dramatically over the years
