Online Training Simplified, Organized and Easy Online Videos to Watch!

Written by Siotha on February 29, 2008 – 11:39 am -

Have you noticed how unorganized training sites feel when they have hundreds and thousands of videos. It could take 3 or 4 minutes to get through them. So, Jeremy, my team, and I have been feverishly working on making xTrain better… Just take a look at this quick intro to the site…. (Note: Please login to xTrain before trying the following! It’s free and won’t cost you anything just to sign in and easy to watch the free classes). We’ve worked really hard to make our site logical for the different types of artists – photographer courses are in photography – designer courses are listed in graphic design – internet marketing courses are only in internet marketing sections. How cool is that – we’ve designed the site – so that you choose your training by passion – then by subject – then by topic!

Playboy Evolutions Photoshop: Video on youtube

Written by Siotha on October 1, 2007 – 1:50 pm -

Ok. well. Nice headline right? For me, it’s got 2 of the big keywords. Playboy & Photoshop. And that’s what makes it a nice headline. Playing off of everyone’s dream model retouching…

In my world those are HOT HOT HOT Topics!

Sure we do Photoshop Training, and one day Playboy artists, digital photographers might find us. Until then, we’ll just have to stick the the fun of marketing “x” train…(no we’re not a xxx training company!)

Now for any of you who know anyone that works in a beautiful photoshoping job where you have the burden of touching up almost nude models day in and day out… I wanna hear from you! What’s your Boring day like? Cus quiet frankly – myself and plenty of other people would happily enjoy that job!

In the mean time – I suggest we all check out this vid on youtube.
It’s tastefully done, and mommy approved.
