WOW!!! HOW DID YOU DO THAT?

Have you ever seen a tutor’s profile on eduFire that uses clickable images that lead to their favorite blog, website or class page and thought, “I wish I could learn how to do that”?

Well, now you can learn how to create these ads even if you have never used Adobe Photoshop. And you don’t need to know a lot of HTML to make it work.

Introducing the latest class in TutorTek’s Five-Star Marketing For Tutors series. This class is dedicated to helping both students and tutors develop logos and clickable ad images to promote their products and services online. This class will explore the basics of all you need to know to create colorful logos and banner ads with Adobe Photoshop including:

*	Understand the basics of creating a new image, setting attributes such as transparency and resolution, and how to save these settings as your own custom format.
*	What are color schemes and how to choose the best colors for your class logos.

ARE YOU TEACHING PHOTOSHOP OR MARKETING?

Well, in a way this class will cover both. The goal here is not just to teach you how to make an image using Adobe Photoshop. The real goal is how to use the images you create to help promote your online tutoring business.

The process of creating these ad images is not too difficult. In fact, you only really need to have a basic understanding of a few of the many amazing features Adobe Photshop has to offer in order to create some amazing logos, widgets, and banners to promote the goods and services you sell online.

And these widgets can be used to drive traffic to almost any web page you want your viewers to see.

Have some books or furniture to sell on eBay? Learn how to create a simple widget with a picture and product information that you can use to link to your product page on eBay. The possibilities are endless, and learning the basic skills you need to do this is really easy.

Even better, learning how is free with this class.

Click to Join My eduFire Email List!

Ever since I started using animated images to promote my upcoming classes here on eduFire I have had several requests in the forums and my email requesting information on how to create them. There has been quite a few requests so I have decided to create a free class demonstrating how to do this in order to help my fellow friends and tutors here on eduFire.

Unfortunately I realized while creating the class on building animations in Photoshop that it is really a little bit too much information to go through in just an hour. But the great thing is that once you know the basics of creating an image in Photoshop, the process of learning how to use that image to create custom animations is quite simple. All you really need is a little bit of time, the knowledge, and a few great ideas to get you started.

After you attend this class this Free Workbook is all you need to help get you started building your own clickable animations as banner ads, logos, or simple widgets. But to get the workbook you must first register and attend this free class!
