The Chairs and the Maracas look great. Just curious about if you will be putting your tutorials back online. I did find those very useful.

Cheers. Probably not, as the most up to date tutorials, by others, can be found right here on the forum or youtube.

there is the internet archive though https://web.archive.org/web/20200201172025/http://digi-dotz.com/

Thanks for the links. This day and age, everyone wants to be a movie star and make those new-fangled Youtube tutorials. I'm old and prefer plain old "readables".

I find that, generally, I learn zero, zip, nada from video tutorials. Mostly, it has to be said, because I seem to be somewhat high tone deaf and am unused to regional variations in the way English is spoken. As a result I find understanding a video commentary almost impossible. Then the UTube screen is too low resolution to see what's being clicked, and only on vanishingly rare occasions do the author concentrate on the steps I don't understand and go through those at a useful speed in a useful level of detail. More commonly they waffle about all sorts of irrelevancies and flash past the only thing I need to know, padding out the rest of a 30 min video with useless fluff. With a written, step by step instruction list, I can go at the speed I want over the areas I'm not sure about, go back with no effort and try again instead of getting annoyed and irritated by poorly designed video controls that make me listen to irrelevant padding again, and again, and again.The written word has been useful for a very long time, for good reason. Concise, to the point and short. Regards, Richard. /Rant mode off.

I have to agree about video tutorials! There are some really good, "professional" ones out there, but what really annoys me, in addition to what Richard mentions, is that so many people don't bother to rehearse or edit their tutorials. For example, it's quite difficult to follow a tutorial if the presenter gets something wrong, then has to go back and change things. A while ago, I was watching one where the guy suddenly got up and walked off. The video continued for several minutes with just a picture of an empty chair, then he came back and continued from where he had left off!

Back to topic! - Many thanks to DigiDotz for all the excellent freebies. I really like the ringlight, I've tried to make my own, but this one is much better!
