Am I the only person whose main problem with Photoshop is the steady hand it requires? My hands are plenty steady for everything else (including most mouse usage), but not steady enough to do what I need to do on Photoshop.

Even something that should be simple like cutting a section out of a photograph is almost impossible because I can't draw smoothly enough with the mouse. Cleaning up my horrible attempt is even harder. And I don't think practice is going to help here, either that or it's going to take years of practice and I don't have that kind of time.

If the item I want to cut out of the photograph doesn't have enough contrast or isn't a regular shape, how do I cut it out if I can't draw around it well enough to do a good job?

Use the pen tool and make small movements each step, or buy a stylus (pen tablet) :)
