Well, what’s happening?

It’s very exciting, I’ve just registered by subscription with KelbyTraining Online.

This is a great service, they’ve got photographers from all over the world, and they have classes available, you learn off these amazing people, online, at any time you wish, you can watch the videos as many times as you want, the only thing I’d love to see is be able to download them for offline viewing later, but you can buy the DVD’s if you so wish.

The thing that’s great about this online training center, is they cover a huge area of topics. Photoshop, Lightroom, Photography, InDesign, Illustrator, Dreamweaver. Now I was only more interested in Photography/Lightroom and Photoshop, but the others are a bonus I might look at later on.

So, if you’re a photographer and want to learn more, and learn it from the best, check out www.kelbytraining.com

What else is happening, well, I’ve upgraded my Zenfolio account to a premium account, it had a few features that I was wanting, mainly watermarking, and the ability to set your own price lists for selling your photos. I think there is a lack of Australian Printers though, but you can still set it up to use your own custom labs, which should work fine. Hopefully they figure out there’s more people out there that aren’t in the US.

That’s about it really, I’ll keep writing back to show any tips I pick up with photography.

Logitech MX5500 Review.

Well, my old keyboard was 6 years old, and the buttons on my old mouse were starting to fail, so I figured it was time to replace them.

I went down to the local computer shop, saw the Logitech MX5500 Revolution set. Bluetooth, comfortable looking keyboard, nice looking mouse, so I went ahead and bought it.

Considering how I’ve bought Logitech Keyboard/Mice for years, and they’ve always lasted a long time, and are good quality, I thought this would be exactly the same.

So, read on to see what I thought about it.

Well, I’ve decided to startup my blog again.

I’ve had lots of things going on, server changes, work being busy as hell, so I don’t know how much time I’ll have for the blog.

I’ve got the domain www.digital-inn.net/com/org, so if you have a great idea for that domain, let me know, I know I want to do something great with it, I just don’t know what.

Anyway, until next time. Peace out.
