Introducing the 8th Tuts+ Site – Phototuts+

Aug 18th in General by Skellie

Today we kicked off a huge week at Envato (it's our 3rd birthday soon, don't you know?) with the launch of Phototuts+, our 8th site in the Tuts+ Network. There we'll be covering everything from beginner to advanced photography tips and techniques, post-processing, lighting and how to use your equipment with expertise. If you've ever wished you could take nicer photos, or to bump your nice photos into professional-level territory, Phototuts+ was created to help you!

Hit the jump to learn more about Phototuts+ and its editor, David Appleyard.

We'll be publishing a combination of step-by-step written tutorials and screencasts/video lessons. In most weeks we'll be publishing 2 - 3 high quality tutorials, so make sure to subscribe to the Phototuts+ RSS feed so you don't miss a thing.

If you think you have the skills to create a screencast or text and image tutorial for Phototuts+, it's easy to familiarize yourself with the guidelines and pitch your idea. We're hungry for user contributions and pay great money for tutorials.
