Spotlight: Lynda.com Online Training
Oct. 2, 2007
 What a great way to start off Fall--with a brand new training title on Lynda.com! I'm pleased to announce that as of last Friday, Graphic Secrets for Business Professionals is available for purchase. Yay!
We've all heard the saying that an image is worth a thousand words. It's the truth, but if you've never had any training on how to work with images, incorporating them into your documents can be an exercise in frustration. This training title fixes all of that and walks you through everything you need to know in a friendly, conversational way.
In this title you will learn why it's so important to use imagery in the first place, and where to find it. You'll learn how to work with images in a variety of applications including MS Word, PowerPoint, Keynote, and Photoshop Elements. The truth about resolution will be revealed to you and you'll understand how to resize images for any usage and what file type to use when.
Also included are two whole chapters on editing in Photoshop Elements where you'll learn some very practical editing and retouching techniques. Several chapters are on giving presentations and will improve your slides as well as your presentation technique. Also included is how to change the size of the slides themselves so that your images always look their best. As a bonus, you'll also learn the four secrets to great graphic design to ensure your layouts (whatever they might be) always look professional.
By the time it's all said and done, you'll know how to turn the images you have into the images you need.
I hope you enjoy the training!
