IN THIS MONTH'S EDITION... If you are interested in the photo editing and enhancing possibilities of Photo & Graphic Designer and Designer Pro, then you'll definitely want to check out this month's tutorials. The Outsider tutorial is an introduction to the Photo Tool and a great place to start. Meanwhile in the Xara Xone Gary Bouton's Photo Composition movie looks at creating depth of field effects and enhancing based on color selection. More details below. It's also a great month for offers, with a return to the launch intro offer on upgrades from older versions of Web Designer and Web Designer Premium to Premium v10 - now extended to all older versions. Plus there's no less than 50% off all template, web and widget packs. And last but not least we've extended the Designer Pro X10 Fotolia stock photo offer for another month. More info below. There's plenty of other news including a bonanza of localized versions of Photo & Graphic Designer 10. And for the second month in a row we feature two artists who are new to the Outsider in Inspirational Art.
