Still one week to the start of Photoshopblog, but you can use this time to get around with Photoshop.

Or, if you don’t want to buy, download the tryout of Photoshop CS 2. That’s free.

We’re currently working hard to get our CMS running ( based on WordPress ). When the blog is online, we’ll post daily tips and techniques about photoshop, photoflicks and how to create the flabbergasting effects advertisers use.
