Has anyone attended one of these seminars taught by Ben Willmore? Just wondering if this would be a good CS2 tutorial. I work in elements only at this point and do everything (it seems) the long way...When I can justify it, I'd like to invest in CS3, (hopefully) some cool actions, and other fun tools. any feedback on this seminar is appreciated. grazie!

I've been twice (Ben Wilmore and Dave Cross, I think) and have found it to be very helpful. You'll get a handbook that explains everything they show so you can go back and do it at home. I haven't used everything I've learned, but it does help to know what Photoshop is capable of and the few things I have used have been well worth it. They certainly aren't beginners classes however, so don't expect them to explain the basics.

Hope that helps.
