Understanding of Computer Graphic and Graphic Design ….. Graphic designis a creative process—most often involving a client and a designer and usually completed in conjunction with producers of form (i.e., printers, signmakers, etc.)—undertaken in order to convey a specific message (or messages) to a targeted audience

In a modern sense Graphic Design is Visual Problem Solving "How do I get people to shop at my store?" ... "I need a billboard." What kind of store is it? What are you selling? Where are you located? Are you upscale or middle ground? These are the type of questions that Graphic Designer would ask so that they can turn your advertising problem into a successful billboard.
Typically there are two types of designers: • Print • Editorial, Layout, Logo, Creative Photography, Packaging, Illustration, 3D Modelings • Web • Internet/Websites, Film, Animation, Coding
Graphic Design has a different definition depending on who you ask.
Graphic design is design.That makes it available to be used almost anywhere and on anything.
Graphic design can be referred to any discipline of art and the visual communication that is present. Graphic design is a representation of symbols, images and words in a combination.

PHOTOSHOP A very short story
Photoshop has been a part of every web designer’s life since they picked up their first mouse. For each version and major feature listed, we couldn’t help but think “did Photoshop ever exist without that feature? On February 10th, 2010, Photoshop turns twenty. Thomas Knoll, the PHD student, is still heavily involved with Photoshop years later
Thomas Knoll adopted his father’s photography habit throughout high school, while his brother, John Knoll, purchased one of the first Macs available to the public. Fast forward to 1987: Thomas Knoll was a PHD student studying Engineering at the University of Michigan. His brother was working at Industrial Light and Magic. February of 1990, Adobe 1.0 was released
About The Pen Tool The pen tool is one of the few tools available to you in Photoshop that works with Vector Graphics as opposed to Raster Graphics. Vector Graphics use mathematical statements and points in order to define their shape and other characteristics, and therefore are very scalable. In other words, vector graphics can be scaled to any size without ever losing quality.
