My renewed vigor has come from the realisation that things had simply become too complex. Not just the show production - which has been more and more elaborate with each passing tutorial but also simple stuff like posting the show to the blog and linking it into the site. The new hosting has taken care of that and a new slimline format for the videos is taking care of the other half of the problem.

So from now on you can expect PhotoWalkthrough shows to be just what I think you want - mostly tutorial! I’m stripping out the extra fluff and concentrating more on delivering the content you want as simply and reliably as I can. I don’t promise to get back to weekly releases right away but I’m going to do my best. Besides, I need to get back in the swing of things ready for when Photoshop CS5 and Lightroom 3 are released. Expect mucho coverage on those! Plus in the next couple of weeks we’ve got Focus On Imaging 2010 coming up and I’ll be showing you all the new stuff on display there.

So check out the new site at www.photowalkthrough.com and the new episode at and let me know what you think. Also keep your eyes open for another new PhotoWalkthrough announcement coming in the next few days (with luck!).
