Photoshop Education Milestone

We just finished our latest tutorial (Vanishing Your Perspective) and we realized that we have written for tutorials only (not challenges, pop quizzes or post on the forums) over 1,000 pages of documentation. That should show you how dedicated we are on giving you free tutorials for Photoshop.

 

We are meeting our internal goals on new/returning Photoshop users everyday and with very little promotion that we do, we know that it is users like yourself that are telling your friends and posting our site on other websites/forums.

 

We have recorded over 10 hours (almost 11 hours) of free tutorial videos that can be viewed online or offline. It is exciting to see from our logs that user are not only watching the videos online, but also downloading the videos to review offline. When we posted the last tutorial, we decided to split off the “All Tutorials” page into 2 pages, because we have now 51 detailed beginner Photoshop courses.

 

With the recent launch of the forums, we will be adding even more content to that site shortly. Feel free to take a minute and signup for the forums and check out the different posts, such as the detailed listing of the top 100 totally free image sites. Do you have a great 100% free image site that we missed? If so, feel free to post and we will add it to the list. The forums site allows us to have the users get more involved with questions and answers. This will indirectly help us, because some questions that we get via email could be already answered on the forum site.

 

With an average of 10 quiz questions per course (not all courses have questions, but most of them do), we have created over 500 Photoshop questions to allow you to test your knowledge. We have published 51 detailed tutorials.

 

Over the last few weeks, our creation of tutorials has slowed down. This is due to the fact that we are working in our day jobs 70-80 hours a week and have been traveling 70% of each Month. When we are on the road, we work 12-14 hour days, plus we do not have Photoshop installed on our work computers. The only areas we can update on the road for the site is planning what tutorials we want to create in the future and updates to the forums site. Don’t worry, we will keep plugging away at new tutorials and new challenges, etc. Watch for new quizzes and challenges being posted on the forums site very soon.

 

Thank you for supporting us in creating a totally free website/forums to allow us to teach or help you with this complex graphics program.
