Special announcement for the Adobe Crop attendees!!

[Team Digital]

Since they couldn't make it to the crop, the Photoshop Guys (http://www.photoshopusertv.com/) have taped a special message JUST for us! We'll be showing it at ONLY the crop in San Jose!
(Sorry to those of you who won't be there, you know we'll miss you!! )

As most of you know, the Photoshop Guys are Scott Kelby, Dave Cross, and Matt K from http://www.photoshopusertv.com. They share great info on their Photoshop User TV episodes on the web and on TV. They've also written many of the book on our shelves. We know they have many fans here!

We're very grateful for their participation and excited to share it with everyone coming to Adobe very soon!! :yahoo:

Here's a link to Photoshop User TV, but this isn't the video for the crop. Just the current episode!

Wahoooo! That is so cool! I am so sad that I don't get to go to Adobe, but just no way I can get that far away for that long right now. :cry: Thanks for the video, at least I get to participate a little bit. Oh if I had only half of the knowledge of the PS gurus.:love2: I love their books and I always learn something new from them!

[kathleen08]

Oh, they definitely have no clue! Can't wait to see it, and maybe post-crop it can be shared with everyone else???

[ChristineG]

[Vallie]

[nachtstern]

I am still sad I won't make it, but seeing that video let's me pretend I am ;)

We are special and so are they ;)

[Janet]

This is so incredibly cool!!!! Love their stuff - have learned a ton from them!!!! I HOPE this DSP/Adobe crop happens again - so bummed I'm missing this one!

[Erica]

You lucky, lucky ladies - I love these guys, they are so clever and they make it so easy to 'get it' with their PS knowledge that they pass on. I hope we get to see it after the crop - please :love2: I love that DSP will be there but so bummed that I wont. :cry:

[omiof5]

Wowee!!! :clap: I've been bragging to everyone who cares that I get to go to Adobe Headquarters this month -- now I get to tell them that "my people" are going to made famous by The Photoshop Guys! Digi-scrapping has truly arrived. :yahoo:

Please thank the guys for all of us -- they'll never have a more appreciative audience than this one. Very exciting stuff after spending the paper scrapping revolution trying to explain to people why I just don't DO paper and scissors. :annoyed: :D

[Nicole Young]

WOW! WOW! WOW! That is SOOOO Awesome!!!!

[gail0423]

Oooooh, I'm SOOOOOOOO jealous now.....since I won't be there :cry: .......how incredibly cool is this?!!!

[Cathiemarie]

Wow, wow, wow, how exciting, this is fantastic news - makes me so happy that I will be travelling all the way from England to Adobe HQ. I love the photoshop guys and their fab box of tricks and Scott's books just rock. I'm doing a happy dance now.

[shazzt]

How cool - I love their videos! Now I am even more gutted I won't be there :(

Maybe Lauren can persuade them to come to our next crop here in NZ :)

[mandy@netlive]

This crop is SO exciting and I cannot get over to the USA to join in :(

p.s.
I am hoping to get the photoshop guys for Christmas (they are on my Christmas list) so if they go missing at Christmas time you will know what happened to them...

p.p.s
Matt, Dave and Scott: if you read this, please do not be surprised if you are Santa'd onto a plane bound for South Africa... Christmas over here is hot and sunny which might be a bit different, but I do have 24 hour internet access and all your favorite Adobe programs - so you will feel right at home.

[scamptx]

This totally rocks! Love it, can't wait, and like Mandy, Adobe features big on my wish list!! (Please note the avatar...it's time to graduate from PSE to The Big Guy. :D)

I'll virtually bring my books for some virtual autographing! :cool:

Cathie and I will take the flatties - suit up ladies - make yourselves all beautiful for Scott, Matt and Dave. They might fall in love with a flatty and teach them photoshop for free :) If you have an existing flatty from a prior crop we'll be taking that even if you don't want us too :) :) :)

Post in the Flatties Gallery (http://www.digitalscrapbookplace.com/gallery/showgallery.php?cat=4418) and put ADOBE CROP and your username in the title.

[crlin60]

ok, dumb question! what is a flatty?

[Donut]

OH WOW!! This is so amazing and exciting!! I so wish I could be there to see the "Gods" video! I so admire those guys, and love their books etc. Wow everyone who is going to be there you are SO lucky!! HAVE FUN and don't forget to memorize every single moment so that you can report back to the rest of us!! :)

[Sharon1313]

crlin, you can view the flatties here... http://www.digitalscrapbookplace.com/gallery/showgallery.php?cat=4418 ... started out as the "flat grannies" but more people have since jumped in...

[scamptx]

A flattie is a digital you that we print, laminate and take to the crop. You can see them here, in the grannies flattie gallery: http://www.digitalscrapbookplace.com/gallery/showgallery.php?cat=4418

It's based on the story of Flat Stanley, a children's book that inspired classes of kids to send Flat Stanleys on many adventures. The grannies have gone many places, and have behaved...well, they've behaved and misbehaved!

[scamptx]

Posted at the same time...:D

[FormbyGirl]

You have to love the flatties - they have a life of their own. They go to parties, get dressed and go on tons of trips and even got kidnapped once :)

[crlin60]

I see! Are there templates for them?

[dagwood]

[willjenni]

OK, I've never made a flattie before. I'm going to make one for this!!!

[suvgal]

My tickets arrived in the mail today.....now I'm really getting excited. When I made reservations July 26 seemed so far away. Can't believe it's next week.

[crlin60]

Thanks for the link for the templates! Still gotta get my name tag done so flatties will have to wait, but gotta play around with this!

[Bocca]

This is such awesome news! I love the Photoshops Guys and try to watch their videos every week. I so wish I could go to the crop!

[Margie]

oh my word, i just saw the video! and you will just LOVE it! i hate to admit this, but i learned a cool new trick i didn't know about with ___ while adjusting ___ using ___. sorry, just don't want to give it away! dave did a great tutorial for us in the video! and dave, scott, and matt will just crack you up. i know of a few around here with crushes on matt and i'm worried he may make a few of the grannies faint! :D

[hoozieg]

Oh high and mighty CEO who likes to TEASE!!!.....neener, neener, neener! I am SO JEALOUS!! and you've made it so much WORSE! AHHHHHHKKKKKKK! :shocked::shocked::shocked: Somebody win the lottery in the next 10 days and buy me a ticket to San Jose! PLEASE!!! I can't even win a game of bingo, so why bother buying a ticket?!? :(:(:(

PS: I've got dibs on flattie Hoozie being placed into Matt's jeans, if the opportunity arises!
