I just got PhotoShop 7, but can figure anything out, besides making layers and using the special effects. I'm used to using Paint Shop Pro, so it is a hard transition.
I need to know:

How do a resize a layer?

Is there a point to point selection tool?

are there any FREE Photoshop tutorials? (yes a complte one)

Press CTRL+T to resize a layer. Or go to Edit > Transform.

Point to point selection tool is the pen tool.

All photoshop tutorials are free, just search for photoshop tutorials on google.com. Unless you mean like a book size "tutorial" in which case, no, just buy a book.

Holding Shift while resizing makes it evenly resized, also in Photoshop 7 you can type in a percentage for vert and horiz dimension resizing or you can click that little button and evenly resize.
