Photoshop Top Secret - Blog

The trigger was pulled on April 22nd and we are now rushing to make sure your course arrives to you as soon as possible! The UPS drivers and USPS drives are backing their trucks up to load more and more Photoshop Top Secret courses everyday. I’ve even got a few weird looks from neighbors as we dolly out boxes to the driveway! Some even said “What’s in the boxes?”, my reply… “It’s Top Secret”. The UPS driver was very happy to help (see picture).

You can now order Photoshop Top Secret at that main page here (While they last)
http://www.PhotoshopTopSecret.com

Instead of making a long comment in the F.A.Q. post I decided to post the answers to your questions here. I will keep adding them as they come in. So here they are…

Angelo Manzano: Yes that is correct. This is a home study course.

Shawn: The bonus DVD limit is much higher then last year (300 limit).Now it’s close to 1000. I’ll make sure everyone gets one on the first day. Payment options are: PayPal, 2Checkout, MasterCard, Visa, Discover, American Express, Check, and Purchase Orders (for Schools).

Basilio: The main page and order button will be here: www.PhotoshopTopSecret.com

Rick Curtis: haha ya, just send me a message at www.reply2mark.com if you want to change the shipping and I’ll personally ship it out for you. I still recommend the 2day because it will probably get there in 1day anyway.

Stefan: This course is only available in English.

Melody: Good question. But I don’t think we will run out anytime soon. I will make sure you get one.

Rashid: Yes! We have actually thought about posting the course on Amazon.com. I will look into it.

Gede: Can you send a check? I can work with you there, if you don’t have a CC. You’ll find a Mail Order Form on the order page tomorrow with the ordering address.

Halah: The answer to all your questions can be found in the F.A.Q. post below

Manoel: Of course

Lee: Very good suggestion, however, the web videos contained on the DVD’s focus mainly on graphic stuff.

Shannon: This PTS course is identical to the first yes

Juan: Just be sure to click the “International” button when ordering. We ship around the world.

Bruce: Yes that is correct, but the 100 bonus DVD limit has been increased to around 1000. Please take your time when ordering.

Well folks, the old blog was definitely in need for an update. There were many issues with the old one that I could go on and on about. This new blog has 10 times the features of the old one, even this new Plug-in that allows you to view the videos without leaving the Home page, my favorite!

Enjoy the new look and please keep your comments coming on Photoshop Top Secret and I will try and answer them in a timely manner.

Here’s a sample from The Invisible Man video on DVD #3. The entire video is 56 minutes and goes into great depth on how to completely remove someone from their clothing and make then look as if they were invisible.

Here’s a sample video from The Stylized Character video on DVD #4. The complete video is 1 hour 20 minutes and is jammed packed with painting techniques. In this sample, Melanie shows how to paint on highlights in gradual steps in order to get the best effect of a stylized character.

Here’s a sample video of The Grunge Look video on DVD #3. The complete video is 37 Minutes and goes through many techniques on how to rip up, shred and age a background. In this sample Mark shows how to typo out the word “grunge” and give it the illusion it has been aged or ran over by a vehicle many times.

We now have the re-launch date for The Photoshop Top Secret Course!

If you’ve been reading the blog, you’ll know that we hit our pre-order limit of 100 courses in 1 minute and 30 seconds on July 6th.2007 and sold over 1000 copies the first week it was released. If the pre-ordering was that intense before I can only imagine what it will be like when we release the course again in a couple of weeks with 3,387 people on the waiting list.

**UPDATE: As I write this there is now 3526 on the waiting list.

So it’s time to mark your calender for the one day you will not want to miss.

The big BANG will hit…

***April 22nd at 1pm PST***

We are now counting down just 8 DAYS until Photoshop Top Secret is re-launched. If we run out of courses then those people will have to wait again. Please make sure you have the correct time if you are an International customer. It’s really easy to convert the time here:

Choose “USA - Nevada - Las Vegas” for my location, then enter the location where you live. Enter April 22nd, 13/1pm for the date.

There you have it. You are now ready to Rock.

Be well, Mark
