Creative
Tip: Adobe
Lightroom Basics.
Free PDF.
It still amazes me that Jason can crank out a new workshop like this each week. Not to mention developing the materials for participants to take home. This particular handout is a terrific overview to Lightroom's overall interface and modules. Right now these weekly mini-workshops are held in our Seattle training lab, but we're getting a lot of requests from readers who want to participate in other parts of the country. Stay tuned. We're hoping to announce our first national webinar options in the next couple months. Meanwhile, you can browse a list of all our upcoming Seattle-area workshops, as well as a complete list of our past events:
Source: The same day as Jason's Lightroom 1.3 workshop, Adobe released a free download of Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 2.0 beta on the Adobe Labs site. A recent post on John Nack's blog, provides links for a variety of videos, write-ups, and resources: Lightroom 2: The deuce is loose! |

Tech
Tip: Retrieve
your forgotten passwords.
Here is a quick tutorial for something we walk clients through all the time. Say you've forgotten your studio's wireless Airport password. If you checked the "remember this network" option when you first connected wirelessly years ago, your long forgotten password awaits you now in Mac OS X's Keychain Access utility.

Seattle
News: CreativeTechs
is Now Members-Only. At CreativeTechs, we pride ourselves on providing great Mac support for Seattle-area creative teams. But with our increased success over the last year, our schedule has become too tight to respond to long-term clients as quickly as we'd like. To address that, the Mac support side of CreativeTechs is becoming a members-only support service. We no longer provide tech support for non-member clients. Our time is now dedicated exclusively for taking care of member clients with an ongoing support relationship. This is a big step for us. If you are a Seattle creative pro who has relied on CreativeTechs for sporadic Mac support over the years, we can be your support team. But we are no longer available for one-time troubleshooting projects. Note: The training side of CreativeTechs remains open to EVERYONE. |
