Looks like a complete training video of photoshop online.
And it's free from the site.
Here is the direct link to the free video (i think you need flash to view it)

What?!
My work blocked it with the following message:

Is there anything at all on the site that would be considered related to sex? Honestly, sometimes this Websense is really crazy with its filtering.

Although I have been a frequent visitor to this forum, this is my first post, so please be gentle with me. To view this or similar videos offline, the following works for me in Windows XP with I.E. 7, but should work with other versions.
1. First you must go to website and play the video. You can play the whole thing, or
just the parts you wish to save.
2. After playing all you wish to save, go to your browser's toolbar and click on the
"FILE" tab. From the drop-down menu left click on "SAVE AS" option. A box
titled 'SAVE WEBPAGE" will appear. Make sure the box labelled "save as type"
has "web archive, single file (*.mht)" selected. If not, click on the down arrow
to the far right of that box and select it. Select the folder (or your desktop) where
you want it saved to, and finally, click on the "SAVE" button.
3. When you wish to view it, go to the folder where you saved it, and click on the
file ending in .mht. (Mine was named "Adobe Photoshop CS.mht" by default),
You do not have to open your brower or be online. A copy of the original webpage
will appear. Although all video parts and options will appear in the menu on the
page, you will only be able to watch those that you originally played in your
browser before saving.

Hope that helps, good luck.

The filters are not set by default, they have to be selected and installed by your computer's Administrator. They are not set to individual websites, but to broad categorys
that don't always make sense. I believe they can even block virtually ALL websites
and then just make individual exceptions where you are allowed access. So, the
"Websense category :Sex" is not necessarily applicable, but was a short cut used by the Administrator when applying the filters. Mark

Not sure if anyone noticed, but looks like an instant download link is available for $1.99
Just tried it and it gave me a direct download link from e-junkie (about 2GB)
Not bad for the video. ;)

Does that really work, save webpage offline even video? So I suppose it must store the video file on your drive to view it offline....?

CS4 is the latest version. I looked at the first lesson under introduction, and it only said CS.

Not trying to TC. Free is free. Still may be useful stuff there, just does not appear to be current version.

Thanks OP for the link, Ill have to check it out next weekend when I go to the library.

I know a fair amount of photoshop, but sometimes theres something new to be learned.

For those that have watched the entire thing, could you give some highlights on what the video covers? :) selection methods are what im most interested in since thats my weakest skill in ps.

Thanks OP! This is great, my girlfriend just got Photoshop and this will be a big help getting her up to speed, not to mention I am sure it will cover some things that I don't know.
