Install PhotoCraft, then open an image with **File › Open…**. The panels you use most are **Layers**, **Properties** and **History**.
1. [Install PhotoCraft](install.md).
2. Start PhotoCraft and choose **File › Open…**. To start from nothing, choose **File › New…** and click **Create**.
3. Pick the **Horizontal Type Tool**, a selection tool or an adjustment, and work on the image. Every step is listed in the **History** panel and can be undone.
4. Keep your layers with **File › Save As…** (PSD or PhotoCraft), or make a flat copy with **File › Export › Export As…**.
The guides walk through each of these:
- [Open and save files](../guides/open-and-save-files.md)
- [Adjust colors without changing your pixels](../guides/adjust-colors-with-adjustment-layers.md)
- [Select part of an image and mask it](../guides/select-and-mask.md)
- [Add and style text](../guides/add-and-style-text.md)
- [Export an image](../guides/export-an-image.md)
