Lynda.com

I’ve always been a big fan of video tutorials. Normally I browse through youtube, adobe tv, and google for free video tutorials and while there are a lot of great free tutorials out there Lynda.com is now my first stop.

I got a one month free trial to Lynda.com for registering my adobe products online and I am now hooked. I”m on month 2 of my subscription and it is well worth it’s $25 a month subscription rate. I’m been bouncing back and forth between tutorials on Dreamweaver, Illustrator, Joomla, InDesign, and Photoshop. And have also watched videos on Logo Design, Flickr, CSS, HTML, photography tips & tricks, and documentaries on professional artists such as Margo Chase, Natalie Fobes, and Rick Morris. The site has a wealth of video tutorials on a variety of design, photography, and other art related topics. Definitely an exceptional resource for anyone needing to learn or brush up their software skills.

I wish I had known about this site when I first started my graphic design and photography classes. All of the videos are very professional and make learning the various subjects and software very easy, especially if you have a dual monitor setup so you can follow along with the videos while watching.
