Flash Design and Flash Masters on This Episode of the E-Newsletter

Happy days, everyone - RC here with the latest installment of the Layers e-Newsletter. As we come out with our fourth issuing of this newsletter, I want to say I am really excited that your participation keeps increasing, and I couldn't be more psyched about it. The requests for tutorials are coming in at a great pace.

User-Inspired Content

On our podcast, Layers TV, we have recently shared some tutorials about printing in InDesign, DSLR camera basics, and doing great After Effects work — all based on reader questions and recommendations. I'm even starting to include mini videos on my blog postings. I make these when I'm really inspired by a reader's question and I think that waiting for another episode of Layers TV may take too long. I've been collecting these mini videos on a YouTube channel, but as I create them, they go right on the Layers front page for all of you to see, so keep a look out for them. Thanks so much for the comments and requests. I really do appreciate them.

Layers Design Contest

Also, congratulations to Stuart Wilson for winning the inaugural Layers Magazine Back Page Design Contest. He's now got a $300 shopping spree, compliments of Kelby Training. Great job! Click on the link to check out Stuart's winning entry.

We have also published the details for the next contest. The theme of the new contest is "Look Before You Leap", and the image is posted on the website. As before, the $300 shopping spree is up for grabs so make sure you get out there and start designing.

Layers Magazine Content

I'm also excited to share a cool article that I wrote for Layers magazine. It's about Flash and its many uses across the Creative Suite. You'll be surprised as to how many things you can put together for use in Flash.

For those of you who are subscribers to Layers magazine, my article serves as an awesome complement to another article in the magazine, written by the incomparable Joe McNally. Joe's article, "Always Look on the Bright Side of Life", is about the different uses of light in a photo shoot, and it's an absolute must read. You can go check out my article by following the link in the newsletter, but if you want to read Joe's article, you're going to have to become a subscriber, which you can do by clicking here to subscribe.

That's it for me, everyone. As always, thank you so much for spending a quick minute with me. Make sure you stop by the blog, or Layers TV. Remember, your answer is only an email away. So get to it!
