Have your say!

Wednesday, November 26th, 2008

Hi Gallery gang, just a quick notice to all users. We are glad to see everyone getting involved and giving  every one a fair rating out of five for their artwork. However, we have noticed, for instance, that some artworks have had 50 visits, a five-star rating, yet NO comments left. We can’t stress enough how great it is to know why your artwork has achieved a certain mark, so please leave a comment if you rate the images. That’s why it’s there, and it is a constructive way to help others improve.Many thanks, Adam Smith, senior staff writer

Excited by Configurator

Friday, November 21st, 2008

I’ve been looking forward to the release of Adobe’s Configurator for a while, and it’s now available for download from Adobe Labs (http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/configurator/). Why? Because I can’t wait to start making my own panels! It would be so handy to have all the tools I use every day in one place. But it’s more than that. It opens up a whole new way of presenting tutorials – one panel in CS4 could lead you through the creation of a whole new effect. John Nack’s amazing Adobe blog has a roundup of some of the first wave of panels to be released, but I imagine that we will see a complete influx of them soon. Has anyone used Configurator yet? I’d love to see what you’ve come up with!

Retraction - Issue 50

Tuesday, November 11th, 2008

Advanced Photoshop strives to bring you innovative and fresh editorial within our related articles. Issue 50 especially. This issue delivered contemporary layouts, diverse resources and great exposure for over 100 artists. Overall, it was a big success and we’d like to thank everyone who contributed.However, with such a mammoth issue, we must apologise to a couple of our artists for article misprints and so you, the reader, aren’t left without appropriate contacts and resources.We’d like to apologies to both international freelance designers George Smith and Kirk Nelson for our website misprints within our 50 Top Tips feature.George Smith’s website is in fact www.endeffect.com and not www.georgesmith.co.uk.Kirk Nelson has no official website presently, so www.trikirk.com is invalid. However, if Kirk’s previous works in our issues appeal to you, he can be contacted at kirkthreed@gmail.com.Again, sincere apologies for any problems this may have caused our artists and readers.
