The bonus, “Absolute Beginners Guide to Photoshop Elements†is in PDF format.
Thoughts on the Product:
“Learn Elements Now†is a good example of how to use video to teach skills. In this case, the video tutorials give step-by-step demonstrations of how to use Adobe Photoshop Elements. The instructions are clear and are easy to understand through both the voice-over and onscreen demos. The videos progress logically from the most basic to the more advanced operations that can be done in Elements.
Each video is only a few minutes long and clearly labeled, so the users can easily and quickly choose the video they need. I’m not sure the user will learn Photoshop Elements in 2 hours, as David Peters promises – especially if one follows along each step using the images provided – which is the best way to internalize the lessons in the videos. But it definitely will not take more than 2 hours to view all the tutorials.
With “Learn Elements Now,†even complete newbies to image editing will soon be able to create impressive digital photos using Photoshop Elements.

“Photoshop Fast Track for Newbies” Review
Seller & Creator: David Peters
Summary:
Photoshop Fast Track for Newbies is a set of videos, which demonstrate the many features of Photoshop. The videos include:
- 11 demonstrations of the various parts and features of Photoshop
- 7 videos on CS2 updates
- 13 videos on CS3 updates
- 11 videos on CS4 updates
Product Details:
The videos are in digital format and can be viewed online or downloaded into the customer’s hard drive.
Format:
- Digital video, compatible with both PC and Mac
- PDF transcripts of the tutorials
Thoughts on the Product:
Video is the best way to learn how to use software, in particular, a graphic editing software such as Photoshop. The tutorials begin with the most basic topic (e.g., “The Workspaceâ€), to the most complicated (e.g., “Lighting Effects†for the Fast-Track set). Each tutorial is only a few minutes long. The presentor is clear and demonstrates each step of the process. Learning is fast and easy when you can see the results of each step right away!
The best way to go through the videos is to have your own copy of Photoshop open at the same time, pause the video, do the same step yourself, and see if you achieve the same results.
Unfortunately, there are a few occasions when the voice-over is a couple of seconds ahead or behind the actual video presentation (but this could be an Internet connection issue). Otherwise, even the most uninitiated Photoshop user should be able to follow along without difficulty.
The PDF transcripts come in handy for quick reviews of the lessons.

Seller: Dan Feildman
Free Report Summary:
Digital cameras have made photography affordable, quick and easy even for non-professionals. By following a few simple principles, even beginners can take photos like pros.
Product Details: (Main content and individual components)

Format:
Digital report (PDF)
Thoughts on the Product:
“Shoot Digital Pics Like the Pros†gives an overview of the special features of digital cameras compared to film cameras, then guides the reader through some basic principles of digital photography.
The report is perfect for somebody who’s venturing into digital photography for the very first time – or someone who has been using a digital camera but has never taken the time to really figure it out. For example, ever wonder what a RAW format was and whether you should select that as your camera’s file format? This report has the answer.
The report has plenty of tips that may be new even to intermediate users, such as:
- How to deal with shutter lag (page 9)
- How to take fast-action shots (page 12)
- How to warm up a picture without using a special lens (page 16)

Even if you’ve been using a point-and-shoot digital camera for family photos, this report will surely have you exploring your camera’s many features to get better and more interesting pictures with it!
While the report is full of useful advice and tips, some beginners may find parts of it too advance. For example, the author assumes that the readers know “white balance,†“depth of field,†and other basic photography terms. Total newbies will need to look up these concepts, in order to catch up.

Opportunity.com – ACE The Affiliate Commission Engine, He’s Cute But…
….how’s the content?
(Side note to my friend “CH”…I meant ACE is cute, wasn’t referring to John Reese in this case. 
)
I finally had a chance to check out John Reese’s latest video for his upcoming Opportunity.com project. It’s actually a very cool video and gives affiliate marketers a little blueprint for making affiliate commissions. What’s really nice about is that it’s simple (and I assume that will have some critics screaming that it’s basic info) and can certainly give those struggling some good direction to go in.
Part of the tips include advice on handling an affiliate autoresponder sequence and since I am coincidentally updating all my autoresponders, I’ll be working in his idea of re-ordering some of my messages.
Overall, it’s worth a watch, as long as you don’t mind giving up your email address in the process (and yes, you’ll have to confirm your email address before you get to watch). Well, it’s better than giving up your first born.
