Welcome to the June issue of the CAFÉ cup!
Welcome to the CAFE cup for June
I have been busy as usual. My new book "How to Do Everything with Photoshop CS2" is now released. There was a great response at the Apple store in Santa Monica where I made a Photoshop CS2 presentation. People are getting very excited about what can be done with the new features.
This Friday and Saturday, I will be in Hollywood at the Deviant Art Summit. Don't miss my Photoshop CS2 Special FX session. Then on Monday I fly down to Florida for the MacDesign Conference. I will be running the PhotoshopCAFE booth down in FL.
The biggest news though is a new Video. Photoshop Secrets: CS2 for Digital Photographers ships this Friday. Read about it in this newsletter.
All in all it's been a busy and productive month. Enjoy this issue of the cafe cup.
To all the Fathers, Happy Father's day this weekend!
