As I mentioned yesterday, Adobe will conduct their official global launch of Creative Suite 5 on Monday, April 12… at 8am PDT. Here’s the great part – once the announcement and launch is official, those of us who’ve been testing the beta version of the software will be able to talk about it openly and in depth. And, that means tutorials galore!
Hoffman Art Design has teamed with some exciting partners to provide a stream of high quality tutorial information, starting Tuesday, April 13, over at the TipSquirrel blog. I’m proud to join Tim Shelbourne, Janine Smith, Justin Seeley and A.J. Wood in providing a suite of education to help ease your migration to the latest Adobe platform!
Stay tuned!

Well, it has been over two months since my last entry, and in that time I’ve been around the world and back again, visiting such places as Malaysia, China, Norway, Scotland, Germany… the list goes on. Sadly for my bird-loving friends, I haven’t had much time for birding, but I have been lucky enough to have my camera with me on many of my trips, so I will be posting a few shots over the coming days and weeks taken from the road.
In addition to some fun travel photography, I’ve been fortunate enough to have a chance to be a beta-tester for the forthcoming release of Adobe Photoshop CS5, which is scheduled to be announced on April 12. I’ve been digging in to the new features, so watch this space after the announcement for some new tutorials and demonstrations of the great new capabilities to be found in this latest version of my favorite software!
I’ve not been totally idle online during my blog’s hiatus, however – I’ve been authoring a series of Monday tutorials on the ins and outs of Photoshop’s powerful Blend Modes, and you can find them on the fun and informative TipSquirrel blog. Just go to the blog and look for the link to posts by Mike Hoffman, including my latest, demonstrating 3 ways to use Luminosity blend modes for sharpening. While you’re there, be sure to check out the many other great tips and techniques shared by the great TipSquirrel authors!
That’s it for now; I’ll be back soon!
