Wednesday News Stuff

By Scott on Wednesday, December 19th, 2007 at 9:03 am | updates.

Here’s some stuff. On Wednesday. It’s Wednesday stuff.

First, I’m really excited to announce that our show, Photoshop User TV, was named by Apple as one of their “Best of 2007 Podcasts” in the Video Podcasts category. We’re totally psyched, and our humble thanks to the Editors at iTunes for the honor of including “The Photoshop Guys” in your Editors’ Choice for 2007.

If you’re thinking of getting someone on your holiday list an HD camcorder, check out the DV Confidential blog, where Rod Harlan reveals his pick for the best HD camcorder under $1,000.

Joe McNally’s upcoming book, “The Moment It Clicks” has already created a huge buzz in the photography community with it shooting to the top of Amazon.com’s bestsellers in the photography category this week, and get this; I saw it get as high as 246 of ALL books on Amazon.com. I hope you got to watch Joe’s video (I posted a link earlier this week), but beyond that, take a moment to go back to Monday’s post and read the comments posted by people who’ve taken a class from Joe, and you’ll see exactly why it’s going to be book of the year. Our hats off to Joe for sharing his gift of teaching, and his amazing images with us all. (Here’s the link to Amazon.com to preorder yours).

The amazing Katrin Eismann has teamed up with Sean Duggan on a new book called “The Creative Digital Darkroom” (from O’Reilly Publishing) that’s being released this coming week, and I can’t wait to get my hands on it. They’ve got a blog about the book with all the details, and you can check it out right here.

That’s it for today, folks. See you all tomorrow for more food and fun! (I’m not exactly sure what that means)

Hi Scott,

I can see why Photoshop User TV made the list. You guys always, I repeat, always put out quality material mixed with silly humor and wit. In fact, you give me inspiration with your teaching techniques. I believe that any student in any capacity should not be intimidated by the instructor. I always make an attempt to insert lame humor in the classes I teach. This eases the student’s minds and promotes a great learning experience.

For all of you teachers out there, try to teach like these guys do and you too will have more fun and your students will learn more.

Thanks Scott, Dave, Matt and all of NAPP,

Mike

Scott, Im so angry now. The Photoshop User Magazine was sold out in our international magazine shop here in Stockholm. There was at least 15 other
magazines about photography on the shelves. Just see how popular this magazine is!

Well, Im not angry anymore, cuse I got 18 days of Holiday in front of me and I will go out every single day and shoot something (with my camera of course) a Canon 350D (I know,Im an outcast) but it works.

I recommend your books to everyone I meet, especcialy to persons
on Swedens biggest photoforum www.fotosidan.se

I wish you and your family a great Happy New Year 2008!

Congratulations on the “Best of 2007″ !

As I mentioned in a comment I made in a previous post a few days back, all the people at NAPP are great, they along with Photoshop User TV are at the top of my Best of List in all categories relative to PS and Photography.

I really appreciate the effort all you guys put into everything you do for your members, students and listeners.

Looking forward to the “Best of 2008″
