  1. You can still access this and several other Photoshop tutorials for free through some of our local libraries. Dakota County Library offers free access to Lynda.com for Dakota County residents, and Saint Paul Public Library offers access to virtually all Minnesota residents who've registered their library cards in Saint Paul.
