I had some comments recently that thanked me for the Blinkie tutorials I put together a few posts ago. It feels good to know that I could help someone out because I know all too well how frustrating it is when you are new to something. I think I am going to keep a pen and notebook next to the computer everytime I do something new so I can keep track of the steps I took to reach my results. As soon as I figure out how to do a screen shot I will start posting them along with the written description.

When I searched for tutorials I found the ones that helped me the most had both sceen shots and a written desription. I rarely was able to follow the tutorials that used video only, usualy they had a different version of the software and the workspace was off and you did not have the same effects or add-ons.

That is why I like to encourage everyone to play with all the effects they use during a tutorials, by spending more time checking out the results of several effects you learn the programs capabilites quicker.  Who wants to replcate someone else’s work when you can create something uniquely yours.

Well, good night, kiss those babies.
