How Photoshop CS4 Saved The Day Contest!


We've got a hot, new contest coming atcha with a chance to win some really kewl prizes. It's your big chance to tell us how Adobe® Photoshop® CS4 saved the day. All you have to do is tell us about a time you were in a jam — perhaps a project was tanking faster than the Titanic or it was on you to wow a client back into the fold — and you used Photoshop CS4 to pull through. Basically, we're looking for creative solutions to everyday challenges. You know ... all those "I pulled it off again!" victories you get from working in a creative industry.
This one's easy: ANYONE. Designers, photographers, videographers, educators, artists, students, enthusiasts, people whose birthdays are in August ... You get the idea. We'll even consider entries from CS3 users. Write a brief success story (no more than 250 words) of how Photoshop CS4 helped save the day and upload it — along with a screenshot or PSD file of your work — to Acrobat.com (click the Share button). Alternatively, you can create a video and post it on a video sharing site like YouTube.com. Or you can post your entry on your blog, if you'd like. All we need is a link to wherever your story is. (Just please don't email them to us or send them snail mail.) Competition opens TODAY (August 3) and closes at 11:59 PM EST on September 18, 2009. Weekly deadlines will be each Friday at 11:59 PM EST.	Weekly Winners There will be six weekly winners who will receive a copy of Lightroom 2, Adobe 18-1 Card Reader, 8GB USB Drive, and a three-year subscription to Layers magazine. You will also be featured in a Layers magazine article and on the website, as well the Adobe website. Grand Prize Winner There will be one grand prizewinner who will receive the Adobe Creative Suite Design Premium or Web Premium (or equivalent value), complimentary pass to Photoshop World Conference & Expo, a one-year subscription to Kelby Training's Online Training, and $250 of books or DVDs from Kelby Training. All winners will be notified by email. The Grand Prizewinner will also receive special recognition at Photoshop World in Vegas on October 1 during the opening ceremony.
