''You Suck At Photoshop'' is a [[https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Webby_Award Webby Award]] winning, 30 episode Website/YouTube [[https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLD19BCF9D57320E03 web series]] that premiered in December 2007. The series centers around a man named Donnie Hoyle, who wants very much for the viewer to know that they [[TitleDrop suck at Photoshop]] and that he's, very reluctantly, going to show them how to get better at it. While ostensibly a genuely informative 'how-to' series about how to use various Photoshop tools and techniques, it soon becomes clear that less-than-obscured subtext of the tutorials is the various ways in which [[CreatorBreakdown Donnie's life is rapidly disintegrating]].

Your Cheating Heart is an index, not a trope.


* UnsympatheticComedyProtagonist: To be true, life has a habit of dumping all over Donnie, but it's made abundantly clear that he's not a particularly nice or stable guy anyway, and that it's in many ways his own fault.
* YourCheatingHeart: The first episode of the show is about him using photoshop to put his marriage certificate on the windshield of the vanagon that his wife used to have sex with another guy in. Several episodes after that either mention or center around Donnie's failed marriage.

* BunnyEarsLwayer: Donnie may be a complete jerk [[spoiler:and may even be mentally disturbed]], but he does know quite a bit about Photoshop and its intricacies. The videos all teach real things you can do with the program; it's just that they're interspersed with a ton of BlackComedy behind the voice of an UnsympatheticComedyProtagonist.
