PAGB E-News Addendum

A message from Rod Whelans

Hi Everyone

Forgive this addendum to the recently sent e-news 45 but ....

I have already had a dozen or so e-mails concerning links in e-news 45 adverts which are not "clickable".  This is because they came embedded in artwork and I didn't notice the problem.

If you want to take part in the Serif PhotoPlus competition with prizes worth more than £1800 please use this link.

Infinity Bridge Anniversary 2011

Last night Stockton put on a special display at the Infinity Bridge
They used illuminated jets of water pouring from the bridge
It was made special by the moon putting in an appearance although that made for some tricky exposure. Maybe some more work to be done on those photos

Photoshop Bridge Update

There are updates for Photoshop and Bridge CS5 available from the Adobe website. However, you may have a problem as I did in installing the Bridge CS5 update. I kept getting a message to tell me to close Bridge CS5, even though it wasn't open. If this happens, open Bridge and go to Edit>Preferences>Advanced and un-tick the check-box that says, "Start Bridge at Login." Then close Bridge, download the update and everything should be fine. The same thing applies to the Camera RAW update which is also available.
