    What do you want to learn that you consider to be 'advanced'? Photoshop does many many different things.
    Photo retouching, Web Design, 3D, Video retouching etc...

    Wouldn't rec lynda. com won't answer your question. type what you want into you tube and you'll Hey your answer. self taught is best.

    As well as Lynda/Tuts+, if you're preparing for the ACE CS6/CC Certification exam, then an official Adobe Classroom in-a-book (or similar) is the way to go for advanced.
    Easy to reference (iPad-PDF), these usually are 500-1000 pages though they cover every single eventuality.
    Maybe skip the 'bible' series as usually too basic and can be over 1,200 pages.

    Try it-ebooks.info - search under the title "Photoshop" and see what pops up. You might some useful books but if not nothing lost as they are free to download

    The problem with searching for answers is that you first need to know the question. :D

    Thats very like a response David Carradine would have got in Kung-Fu

    A lot of people have it right here....Youtube and a wealth of learning tutorials out there....unless that is you want the certification...

    :D

    My point was that with a structured (and quality controlled) course you can pick up methods, tips and workflows etc. that you might miss when searching for the answer to an immediate problem. I'm a big fan of the University of YouTube, but in many cases it's a quick-fix solution (exactly what vonievega offered above when dismissing Lynda.com), and I don't think that's what the OP was asking for.

    BTW, I was just last week offered a 40% renewal discount and just took one month for $15. That's about as close to free as you'll get for content of that standard.
