2008-05-08 17:00:00
We hit 1000 subscribers a couple of times last month. But RSS feed subscription numbers are not absolute. They fluctuate often, sometimes going down, sometimes going up, based on daily feed views (not acutal subscriptions); so I preferred to err on the side of caution before making this announcement! I decided to use the benchmark of ...

Canon EOS Rebel XSi
2008-05-07 02:41:00
Like the price of a barrel of oil, the megapixel count of D-SLRs continues to climb. When Canon and others first unveiled popularly-priced digital single lens reflex cameras, 6MP was the resolution spec, and everyone was thrilled. Today, 6-megapixel cameras of any type are practically ancient history. In fact, most new D-SLRs such as the Nikon D60, Pentax K200D or Sony DSLR-A200 kick off at 10MP with 14s becoming much more prevalent in 2008, such as the recent Editor’s Choice-earning Sony DSLR–A350. As for the new Canon EOS Rebel XSi, it fits right between them with a resolution of 12.2MP, but proves slightly more expensive if you look at it on a pure pixel-for-pixel comparison. Yet digital cameras are about much more than pure resolution—they’re about speed, picture-taking ability and loads of little things that separate the good from the bad. With that in mind, it was time to see if Canon had a winner on its hands—or, to put it bluntly, a clunker ...

The Art of Coloring
2008-05-06 16:00:00
There's a lot of things you can do with Photoshop and one of them is coloring! I often read Japanese mangas which are pretty much the same as American comic books. These mangas also have a strong fan base in the US and a lot of digital artist are part of it.The reason why i bring this up is because I have seen some fan art that is just breath taking, just beautiful. A lot of these master piece come from teenagers who never had any type of instruction or guidance on how to use the software, I guess that's what you label as talent.A really good place to take a look and learn the art of coloring in photoshop would be Manga Helpers, one of the biggest manga communities. I invite you to visit Manga Helpers and appreciate these master piece, they deserve it.Before and afterOther posts you might find interesting:Yellow to Red in under 60 seconds!Coloring a black and white image!!Learn to make Simple Elegant Cool Website HeaderSubscribe to Photoshopsmart
