Photoshop Elements Tutorials and QuickTips

If you're a fan of Elements, please check out my latest video training title, "Practical Photoshop Elements" over at KelbyTraining.com (released late July 2008).

It features 23, short QuickTime movies on some of the most practical techniques you could ever learn like partial color, rounded photo edges, colorizing grayscales, color tints, the truth about resolution (a funny little movie called Brown sugar featuring me in a chef's getup!), and much more.

I hope you enjoy it!
