xTrain Presents Ben Willmore - High Dynamic Range (HDR) Mastery For Digital Photographers - Plus 15% Discount Code
xTrain.com — a leader in on-line video training for media, arts, and design — is excited to offer High Dynamics Range (HDR) Mastery, an on-line training session with expert Ben Willmore. (We have an exclusive 15% discount code for you. At checkout simply enter the code photoshopsupport and you'll receive a 15% discount.)
Currently xTrain’s hottest selling on-line training session, HDR, offers digital photographers the training they need to take their digital photographs to a new level. HDR is the process of taking a sequence of exposures, and then allows you to lighten your underexposed areas and darken your overexposed areas to better simulate what your eye would actually see. This technique creates photographs that will display a more dramatic and detailed picture worth more than a thousand words.
To date, Ben has personally taught over 60,000 Photoshop users on three continents. His descriptions of Curves and Channels are thought to be the best in the industry and his breakthrough teaching style of “not-just-how-but-why,” has made him the in-house instructor of choice for companies such as Mercedes Benz, Adobe Systems, America Online, the U.S. Airforce, Lexis Nexis and Fisher-Price Toys.
His award-winning, best-selling book, Adobe Photoshop Studio Techniques is said to be “Arguably, one of the best Photoshop books ever written,” by Photoshop User’s publisher, Jim Workman. Ben’s latest book Photoshop CS3: Up to Speed is a new book concept focusing exclusively on the new features in Photoshop CS3. He is also co-author with Jack Davis of How to Wow: Photoshop for Photographers, and the creator of the best-selling Master Series videos.
One of Ben’s students, David McLauglin, comments, "This has to be the best, informative, fully capturing of the whole topic on-line course I've ever taken or seen. Congratulations to Ben, and anyone helping Ben put this on. I'm totally blown away." When you enroll in the HDR course, you can expect to learn about the limitations of your camera, how to process your HDR file, how to choose your subject, how to merge your exposures, and much more.

SiteGrinder Photoshop Plugin - Create Websites Instantly
There often seems to be a strict division of labor within the world of web design and development. Creative professionals tend to stick to the Photoshop domain, while those well-versed in scripting are left to the task of implementing their work. Indeed, the two realms are quite different from each other, to which any of us even vaguely familiar with either can easily attest.
Essentially, Photoshop is a no-holds-barred design studio, offering the artist a seemingly endless array of creative options. On the other hand, HTML, CSS, Java and the like follow strict rules of engagement, requiring the developer to take any number of esoteric concerns into consideration in order to ensure that designs are properly displayed on the web.
Turn Photoshop Into A Complete Web Design Tool
SiteGrinder seeks to bridge this gap between design and development. Basically, this program turns Photoshop into an easy-to-use and fully functional web design tool. With SiteGrinder, designers will now have the freedom to totally let their creativity loose and then, without skipping a beat, transfer their designs to the web. Bringing esthetic concerns together with more practical considerations, this program is an amazingly powerful tool that would make a fantastic addition to any web designer's bag of tricks.
Generate Your Web Pages Directly From Photoshop
By generating web pages directly from Photoshop, you'll be able to spend much more time on the creative end of the spectrum, since you'll know right off the bat how well particular designs will translate to the web. No more going back to the Photoshop drawing board after getting a phone call from your development team, telling you that what you had envisioned doesn't have a chance of being displayed on the web. You can immediately visually and interactively test your designs, which permits you to then make changes to either esthetics or functions while it's still relatively early on in the design process.
Pricing and Availability
Mac OS X and Windows versions of the SiteGrinder unlockable demo are available now via download. SiteGrinder can be ordered from Media Lab's online store.
