Tip and Trick
Tip and Trick for InDesign CS3, from Adam Pratt, Presenter for Total Training for Adobe InDesign CS3: Essentials
Full Bio

When you have a folder full of images you want to get on the web fast, try Create Slideshow under the commands menu. The program will prompt you to select from a packaged design including javascript and even Flash slideshows, and then walk you through setting up album properties, captions, filter settings and finally export your new slideshow all ready to be posted to the web. You get very professional looking results, and you are done in just a couple of minutes.


Presenter's Corner
We recently chatted with John Ulliman, Total Training presenter for our brand new Flash Series, Total Training for Adobe Flash CS3 Professional: Essentials. Here is what we learned about him. John's Bio
Q: What is your favorite project you have ever worked on?
A: I have worked on quite a few character animation projects -and those are certainly my favorites - some for games, some learning interfaces, and even a few childrens books. They are the most fun completing.

Q:

When you're not plugged into work, what are you doing?
A: These days it seems to be working on my house - (going on its 3rd year in a major renovation) -- but when I can - it's traveling. I'm hoping to get some time to go and see Greece and Rome if I can.

Q:

What are your 3 favorite features for Flash?
A: 1. Multi-page layout - a new feature that allows you to layout your entire website in one Fireworks file. This feature alone could possibly be the best reason for upgrading if you are already a Fireworks user.
2. Batch processing - this can speed you through a whole folder of files - and get them done and on the web in minutes.
3. Slice behaviors - writes and maintains your javascript for you, and they are designed to be so easy. No scripting experience required.
