I got a good book telling how to use photoshop. Anyways I've noticed they use soooooooooooo many way to change the overall color in a photo. Like Image -> Adjust Levels -> Choosing a channel. Image -> Adjust -> Color Balance. Image -> Adjust -> Hue/Saturation. Image -> Adjust -> Selective Color. Image -> Adjust -> Channel Mixer. I've alos noticed when you make a new layer, you can choose a color. Is this just a marker for you? Cause it doens't seem to affect the photo. Image Why does photosohp have so many way to change the hue? Are certain ones better than others?

Thanx

Yes. Get a good book to explain the differences and when and where to use a certain technique.

No offense intended, it's just a huuuuuuge subject that is covered comprehensively on the internet in some depth.

I can recommend a good author that is considered the 'daddy' of colour correction and colour management in general - Dan Margulis.
