Tandika is one heck of a tutorials writer.  She is known throughout the digital scrapbooking world and highly respected.  She has a free 8 day introduction for Photoshop CS users at Tandika.com.  Here is the description for the first one:

Newborn or "I Just Installed PSCS, NOW WHAT DO I DO?"  -- This is the first in a series of tutorials for brand new Photoshop CS users. It is designed specifically for people who want to use PSCS for scrapping. No assumptions are made about the user's skill level, other than they know how to install the software and start it.
