Hi again,
The only thing I would say further is perhaps some tweaks, such as
having a little text with the video tutorials explaining what the, not
the how, but the what of the process is that we are about to watch.
Example:
Photoshop: Noise Averaging
http://photoshoppros.com/174011-Photoshop-Noise-Averaging.html
Since I'm not a Pro, why would I watch it?
Or this article;
More Brushing Effects for Photoshop Enthusiasts
http://photoshoppros.com/868573-More-Brushing-Effects-for-Photoshop-Enthusiasts.html
I've got Photoshop CS2 open and I'm trying to guess which brushes
these are. Which set is it that ships with Photoshop? Are they
included with CS2? Are the available at the Adobe Exchange? I went to
the site linked in that article for questions about the article and
there wasn't anything to help me there.
The only other thing I could wish for is a search tool. There is a LOT
of information at the site of differing types and while one can use
the site index to sort of search for something, a search tool from the
front page would make it much simpler.
I don't know how many articles on Photoshop brushes there are at the
site, I went to the index and used my browser search tool and found
one. Are there more? I don't know because I can only search the titles
in the site index.
This critique is only because I would like to get more use out of the
site and I am enthusiastic about it gaining more followers. I don't
know the reasons why the site is formatted the way that it is, all I
can do is give you a little user/reader feedback.
