Well, it’s a long way to The Netherlands but i’d sure like to win a CS5 upgrade ;-) I got some signed books from Scott and had a little chat with him @ Utrecht last month and i hope that if i win the upgrade he’ll sign it. Wow … a CS5 copy signed by Scott Kelby … a collecters item. Maybe it will be as popular as the iPad ;-)

Wow, hard to pay attention to what you’re saying with all that video editing and cuts, DISTRACTING!!!!

Agreed. Some fancy stuff is good. Too much gives me a headache.

I’ll third that. The video equivalent of an overdone HDR. Sometimes less is more, even when you’ve got all the fancy bells and whistles at your disposal.

Hey, come on guys, they are giving away free cs5s and have free webinars next week. How can that be so confusing?

I thought it was very slick looking. But then I’m a designer.

Hi Ken,
I don’t think anyone said it was confusing. Distracting and overblown, sure. :-)
And I’m a designer/photographer/illustrator too, not that that makes me a video expert. We’re just expressing my/our opinions.

Ken Toney
Me too. It must have been rushed a little. (like my comment) Sorry

E.B. West
I was going to send a comment about that but I thought I was just being an old motion picture guy and figured (apparently) tripods were out of date.
Thanks for starting this. I agree, free CS5 or not. Especially since I never win anything anyhow.

I don’t usually wish for the weekend to be over before it starts… but Monday can’t come soon enough!

AWESOME! Love the video too, looks read good on an iPad. I see you have used Vimeo to put it up. Thank You for doing this. I must say too, that the place holder is not there for the video but when I click on it, it takes me to Vimeo and then plays beautifully.

PS. See you in Chicago tomorrow!

Im so excited! You guys are the best! I’d love the be the winner of that CS5 upgrade!!! :) Looking fwd to the webinars!!

Wow – after seeing some of the “hints” of whats to come, I CAN’T WAIT. Winning a copy of CS5 would totally make my year. I like the idea of Scott and all the guys signing it also. Monday where are you????
http://www.tkrphoto.com Terry Reinert
I think there is a huge conspiracy going on that NAPP is at the center of. The conspiracy is focused around improving the economy by making me spend money. First there was Photoshop World in Orlando last month. Come on, no one can say NO to going to Photoshop World!! Its freaking awesome! Then there was the keynote at PSW combined with Big Electric Cat playing at the After Hours Party. While these things seem normal at first, a week later I found myself in a Guitar Center buying new electric guitars for both my daughter and myself. I am convinced this was due to the subliminal messages in the keynote. At least that is what I am telling my wife. :) And now all this talk about CS5 and NAPP’s CS5 learning center…. ARGH! You’ve got me sitting here with my credit card waiting to buy CS5 the second it is released along with a renewal of my Kelby Training subscription. Its a conspiracy I tell you!!!
In all reality, I think it is awesome NAPP is on the ball with the CS5 learning center. Just another reason why I continue to hold the opinion that NAPP is without a doubt the worlds leader in Photoshop training. Keep it up!!

So you mean Scott is to blame for me wanting to replace my old Line 6 AxSys 212 with something newer?
Actually, I’ve always thought that someone could really do well providing online music training using the same approach as KelbyTraining.com. I’m up for learning something new to play.
http://www.kentoneyphoto.com Ken Toney
Terry, I said no to PSW (couldn’t make it) and I won a guitar this year from Scott.( I will have to admit I did buy a lot of stuff this past year). An yes, I did by both versions of the IPad…..OK there is subliminal messages but man I love it (addiction).

Hi Scott,
And now for something completely different..; I have a question that has absolutely nothing to do with this post, but…I went to Professional Imaging in Nieuwegein, The Netherlands, and saw your presentations, they were great, I like your sense of humour! In your Photoshop tips&tricks presentation you explained how you can make a ‘fake panorama’ to create a banner, but you talked too fast for me (-:.
I searched on the internet but couldn’t find any information, also tried things in Photoshop CS4 but couldn’t work it out.
Could you explain again how you do that? Pleaseplease…(-:
Greetings,
Carool

Monday will be a good day. Even better if you are lucky enough to win the free upgrade.
http://www.bernskiold.com/ Erik Bernskiold
That sounds just amazing! Knowing the people behind the videos and the live sessions, I am sure it will be just as good, if not better, than it sounds in the video!
You don’t want to miss this!

Hi Scott,
Monday will be the highlight of my year – even better if a free upgrade is on the way.
It is too good to be true.

Just wondering, since there were restrictions before will these discounts and stuff about CS5 from NAPP apply to international users too?

http://www.photoshopworld.com/index.html NAPP_News
Dirk,
The Adobe discount now covers many of our international members. Just go to the NAPP discount Page. The list of countries and instructions on how to obtain your discount are there in the international section: http://www.photoshopuser.com/members/?page=discounts&id=discount-international

http://www.flickr.com/eikrid Dirk
Thanks, my country is not listed there (yet).
Any advice on how I can get something sorted?

RUGRLN
Wow..this is really great stuff! Good going! Looking forward to next week…
Dave
There was mention of new video for Flash. I thought Flash was dead?
Phil
I am a CS5 Beta tester and you will absolutely be blown away with some of the new features. Can’t wait till I get my hands on the retail copy. …. and I able to test because I was a NAPP member. Just another benefit of NAPP. Thanks, guys.
Nancy Cuppy
Interested to see what is in store for cs5. Wondering how the free upgrades will work? Do you have to tweet or do all NAAP members get their names thrown into Scott’s hat?

I agree with Terry!! There is a conspiracy going on at NAPP….!!
Gotta love it!! Keep doing what you do best, and can’t wait to learn the new CS5 !!

I am so mad because they only will start shipping next month… What is all the hype for if we can’t get our hands on it… OK, I pre-ordered, but it still sucks that they make all that noise for an application that is not even shipped or about to ship…
Bad Adobe… very bad… not customer friendly at all….
