The people at SitePoint have released their Photoshop book The Photoshop Anthology: 101 Tips, Tricks and Techniques book for FREE as a downloadable PDF. I’m a bit fond of the book, especially in the immediately-available PDF format. And for the next 14-days you can download your very own PDF copy for FREE. Did I say it was FREE? Cause it’s free.
From my previous review of the book:
The Photoshop Anthology is very well written with great, plain-English explanations, allowing you to dive right into Photoshop’s vast feature-set. I was especially impressed with the immediate attention to keyboard (and other) shortcuts which are re-iterated throughout the book, which, when mastered, can increase your Photoshop productivity immensely.

The latest in the series of Beta releases from Adobe comes in the form of Dreamweaver and Firewords (and Soundbooth). Since I’m a web developer by trade, some exciting news tidbits come from the Dreamweaver camp. Some noteable new features are integration with Photoshop Smart Objects and Subversion integration. I’ve always used Dreamweaver as my code editor because of the integration of the site manager, but I’ve always missed out on Subversion… well, not anymore. In Fireworks world, the new features include PDF export, Adobe type engine integration and Adobe AIR Authoring.
It seems that both versions are benefiting from an updated user interface that appears to be a preview to the new look of the upcoming CS4 release. (You can see “cs4″ in the download links).
Go snag the beta downloads here:
