Great tutorial by califkiss_icons

califkiss_icons just posted a fabulous tutorial here:

http://www.livejournal.com/community/icon_tutorial/1518207.html?

about how to basically clean up a picture before turning it into an icon. I was wondering if anyone can post a tutorial for the same topic for PS7. These are just general things that I'm sure even seasoned icon makers would like to know and would be great to add to the memories.

Any help is good help, right ;oD

P.S. mods, should you feel this post is in violation of any rules, my appologies and please go ahead and remove.
