Sharon, do you know how to do those things that are in her photo editing class. They won't be needed for her free class, but she is just recommending them. I know how to do a lot of it, but i'm going to take it some time just to freshen up on things and I know she'll teach me a lot I don't know.

If you don't know how to do them though....sometime it would be really worth the money to take the class....but you won't need it right now!

I took it this past spring and I LOVED it!!! So worth the $ and my editing skills have improved immensely since taking it. I thought I knew how to improve my pictures in PS but after the first day of the class they were already looking night and day different. I think that $40 is completely worth it! I'm looking forward to the free follow-up class.

I just signed up for the Oh Shoot! summer session too and now I can't wait for next week!

Well...mine ended up just above $1,100 ... they replaced the struts in the front of the van...and brakes... the "parts" were covered by the parts company even though they were out of warranty (13 months old).

Well dh and I drove the van on Thursday and the steering wheel started squeaking...more we drove the more it started squeaking (different sound than before that was a more deep sound)...well drove it back to the shop and they could hear it. Just on the driver's side. They took it apart...put it together...the owner didn't like the sound of it...took it apart again and changed parts again and put it back together...didn't like it still...so he called someone higher up in the parts company and requested a "one piece strut" which he said was higher priced...but because of all the troubles...they are providing the parts to us. ...so we borrowed the owner's pick up truck for the weekend...which worked out for us because dh had to go to Lowes and pick up wall board, 2x4's, and a door.

Still waiting on the call to say my van is ready...hoping ALL of this is covered under the previous charge!!

Did they do anything with kinda blurry pics? I just scanned the negatives of my son in the District Spelling Bee from 1999....oh my gosh they are blurry...I need to see if there is any way to make them even a wee bit clearer!

Mine was $1,100...I win!!

Luckily I got mine back last night...no more charges...and I ended up with a 1 piece "strut" on both front wheels...which is a more expensive part...but the other type wasn't working and the parts company gave it to the garage because of the troubles.

I have taken most every class Jessica offers and they are all worth every penny...and your lessons are available to you forever, so you can always refer back to them. HIGHLY recommended!

Welcome to SSD Stephanie...I see you are brand new to us here! I'm so glad you stopped in to tell us your experience!

I have some photos that are OVER exposed or are blurry...which class would deal best with those pictures? Do you know?

Ok for those that have taken several classes....which class would be the best one to take to help me with over-exposed, under-exposed, and blurry pics (that need some adjustment)...???

I just looked and got $102 in my paypal account this morning from a friend that is selling my rubber stamps on ebay!

I'm taking the photo editing one now, and really have enjoyed it. It does provide some good tips on optimizing exposure and sharpening. I really like that I can keep referring back to the lessons as needed. I'll have to start saving my pennies for the Oh Shoot class - I've heard it's great, too!

I'm currently doing the Good to Great Workflow class and LOVE it! I can't believe that there's so much I didn't know about PSE and I'm learning so much. I think it's definetly worth the money. IMO, I don't think you need to take that class to do the frame ups and special effect class. The videos are very detailed and easy to understand.
