Welcome to My New Photoshop Insider Blog

Welcome to the new home for my Photoshop Insider Blog, which incorporates both ScottKelby.com and my former Blogger.com blog into one site. This new blog has lots of nice new features (easier navigation, more info, categories, the opportunity for larger sized photos) and for me it makes posting much easier and efficient). Thanks to my in-house Web guru Fred Maya who hooked me up with this new set-up (click on that down facing-arrow at the bottom of the photo at the top of this site to expand the image area. Pretty cool, eh? That’s more Fred stuff.). So…here goes:
- Terry White’s Tech Blog has a write up on the recent Photoshop World, complete with comments from some attendees. Click here to check it out.
- I’m teaching another week-long hands-on workshop this summer at the wonderful Santa Fe Workshops, out in Santa Fe, New Mexico. The workshop is called “Super Charged Photoshop and the Bridge for Photographers,” but of course, we’ll also be working with Lightroom this year. I’ll have more on the workshop tomorrow, but for now, you can find out more by going to the Santa Fe Workshops site.
- The amazing Laurie Excell (AKA: The Equipment Lady, and head of NAPP’s Photo Gear Desk”) has a new blog, and if you like great photography, great advice, and a the latest scoop on the all the latest gear, you might as well add it to your daily rounds. You can jump there now by clicking here.
- Photoshop World instructor, and renown digital artist Fay Sirkis is teaching an in-depth five-day “Beginner Photo Painting” workshop (April 16 - 20, 2007) at the Lepp Institute, out in beautiful Los Osos, California. If you’ve ever caught Fay’s standing-room-only sessions at Photoshop World, you know what an amazing week this will be. For more info, visit the Lepp Institute’s site.












Hey Scott! Like the new look of your blog…will the main picture on top change regularly to show some of your photos? I always enjoy reading the updates/news you post. Keep it up and congratulations on the success of Photoshop World!
Love the new look, Scott! And it was great meeting you last week! Thanks for your kind words!
Scott, you and the posse did a great job at Photoshop World Boston. I didn’t realize that not only are you guys & girls talented, but very witty too. Great stuff!! Keep up the fabulous work!!
The old blog site has a RSS feed where the reader(s) can be notified of a new entry via RSS rdr, email reader or homepage. I can’t find a RSS feed for the new blog site. Soon? Please.
Love the new blog! Looks great. - RC
Hi Scott,
Great new blog..!
Thank you for the prompt addition of the RSS feed, and yes it works for My Yahoo and Google Homepage.
Hi Scott,
Great looking new site.
Just waiting for the new Lighroom book to reach us here in the UK and I can’t wait.
Best wishes to you and the guys,
Glyn
I was going to type a comment in German but it’s already been done (damn it!) I’ll just stick with…This new blog ROCKS!!!
Catch ya later,
Jeff
Nice new blog, Scott. Which blog software are you using?
Just to say how much I enjoyed PSW last week, I learned so much and your crew are the best. Everything went very well and of course was fun on top of that. Wish I had joined NAPP before this year. I have done three of the 3 week lessons and each was a great way to start each day. I was glad to see that you’re also a great photographer as well as a PS’er. Thanks Terry
Scott,
I don’t know how many times I’ve tried the “Going for the Gold” on pg. 117 of Down and Dirty Tricks and I still cannot achieve the metallic gold letters. Is there some other simplified way to do this or have you written the instructions out somewhere else that might explain it a little differently.
Thanks,
Chip
Hi Scott

Hi Scott,
I’m a big fan of your books. Right now I’m trying to decide between Lightroom and Aperture. I have your Lightroom book. Are you planning on doing anything on Aperture? You seem to be ignoring it — I don’t even see it mentioned on your site? They both seem like good programs to me, with different strenghts and weknesses. I’m hoping you’re planning on writing an Aperture book. You are such a good teacher and it doesn’t seem like there are many good books out there on it yet.
Thanks for listening and keep up the good work!
Scott
