NAPP Memberships: They Just Keep on Giving (and The Best of Photoshop User: The 11th Year DVD-ROM giveaway!)

[Contest is closed. The winner is Kathy!]

Did you know that all NAPP (National Association of Photoshop Professionals) members are eligible for referral benefits? Once you join and login to the members’ only area of the website, just scroll to the lower left sidebar until you see the Refer a Friend button. Clicking on it takes you to a page where you can read all about the Refer a Friend program and how to get your own personal referral code.

You’re also able to see how many visits and visitors your links are generating. I place mine in both my blog’s sidebar and email signatures. Here’s a sample of my stats from earlier today.

A NAPP member was featured once in the email newsletter; he had worked his way through all of the referral benefits. I was inspired by the example, and thought, “Hey! I can do that, too!” (Yes, I’m an evangelist for NAPP, but I generate all of my own referrals.)

Referral benefits are the proverbial icing on the cake of a NAPP membership. I’ve worked my way through the list and you can, too.

I am an intermediate Photoshop user. I feel like I know quite a bit about the functions I use all the time in Photoshop, but I am constantly learning new little things about it. It is one of my favorite things about Photoshop.

I guess after this much time I would have to be considered an intermediate user.

I downloaded a trial of lightroom last week and have LOVED it! I created the banner on my blog with it and want to do more. I’m hoping to persuade my hubby to let me purchase it because it’s just that awesome!
