Read on for an extended Q&A, and to ask your own questions in the comments. John is currently developing material for this extended course, so if you have a topic you’d like to see him cover, mention it in the comments below.

Q: How Long Are Classes?
A: Each class is roughly 90 minutes long, with an additional 30 minutes for audience questions. The Q&A is typically pretty valuable, so plan to stick around.
Q: How Many People Can Attend Each Webinar?
A: Our Webinar tool, GoToWebinar, has a limit of 1,000 attendees per class. Based on the popularity of our other free training, we expect to reach that limit on most classes.
Q: Can I Download Recorded Copies of Classes?
A: We record a high-resolution copy of each class, and we plan to make recorded copies available for a slight fee.
Q: How Can This Be Free?
A: We are trying to make a big splash, and we love working with a large audience. Help us spread the word. If we continue to attract a full audience, we’ll be able to keep offering these types of free courses for InDesign, Illustrator, Fireworks, Dreamweaver, and other Adobe products.
Q: Can I Post an Invitation on my Blog?
A: Yes. Please help spread the word. We need as many people as possible enrolled to make this free class format viable for us. You can post a link to the following URL, which we will keep updated as details change:

I bought the downloads and have had trouble downloading the larger files. I went in yesterday and got a couple more downloaded. I went in again this morning and the link no longer works. How can I finish getting the downloads. Sorry it’s taking so long for me to download. My internet is not the fasted and the files so large take at least hour or more to download. Please help as I would like to get them downloaded. Please give me a new link to the files.
Thank you,

We presented the last session of this 10 Week Photography Course today. John will be continuing to showcase photographic skill and talent on a regular basis. Next week will be the first episode of the John Greengro Photography Show. Same time. Same John Greengo. Lots of cool new stuff.
Hey I signed up today (11/4/09) when I heard about this through an Art Wolfe posting on facebook.
Now everything I’ve found here is out dated
Did I is miss something
Or is all this just old info?
Please advise I was looking forward to this.
Thank you
I know John Greengo is planning to present more classes for CreativeTechs. I don’t think we’ve got them scheduled yet.
I missed the September session and was wondering if this class will be offered again?
Marguerite, we’ve added a LIVE video feed from our classes that does not require GoToWebinar. Simpliy go to this page during a class and you should be able to view the full event online:
http://creativetechs.com/live
I apologise for the cross posting, but my leaving this same message on the free-photography web classes Creative Tech page, resulted in no response. After trying several times to install the GoToMeeting client which apparently (although it is not noted anywhere on the Citrix website or in Creative Techs) does not support Vista 64bit, it looks like I lost the opportunity to participate…..bummer, I really wanted to take this class. The error message was that the installer could not find the appropriate directory into which to install the program.
) and my enrollment given to someone else?
I hope that I can get some help before the next week’s class (I emailed Citrix’ support in the beginning of September without response). Does anyone know whether I might be able to obtain a recorded copy of preceding classes? Or whether my preregistration might fail (and due to the limited seating capacity my seat given away as I appear to be a no show

We are posting excerpts for our class sessions at http://creativetechs.com/training. You can see part of last week’s session there now.
I am already registered for the 10 week class, but I did not receive a notice for last weeks class and I can’t find it anywhere to view!*!*
Folks -
Please DO NOT POST YOUR PURCHASE INFORMATION here. I understand that it can be frustrating to wait for a response to an email sometimes but we are a small operation. While we do respond to emails over the weekend most of our email response time is during business hours, 9-5 (PST) Monday-Friday. Thank you for your patience.
Hi,
Sorry for duplicating this here. I sent it earlier to help@creativetechs.com but I think it was the wrong place to send it, so I’m posting it here just in case. I bought the 10 week digital photography course through paypal but my confirmation was sent to an old email address (I guess). I have both the unique transaction id #5D956678A03343302 and the invoice id #14r9cy3erlamh7d6tkz230ywgsckc04s48o8kwg from a screen shot. Please tell me where I can download the course.
Thanks for all the courses,
Victoria
If you’re in need of immediate help send your questions to training@creativetechs.com
I have not yet received the info for today’s lesson.

We’re posting our recordings of each session at http://creativetechs.com/training for folks who miss (or just can’t attend) the live session. We put the video online as soon as possible (usually the next day) after the live class is recorded and leave it up until the next live session is broadcast.
This sounds awesome! Unfortunately I work during the times you’re offering the free webinar!!!! ;0(
Any chance for a later start time. I live in CDT time zone!(Preferably after 5.)
Kimberlee -
Go to http://creativetechs.com/training – class downloads are for sale there. If you have any further questions please email us at training@creativetechs.com.
I am really interested in this course; however, I work at that time and I have already missed 2 classes. What is the small fee for the recorded version and how do I access it?
you can still enroll if you click the link at the top of this article
Oh yikes….
wish i had seen this before…Am I too late to enrol?
Shimada -
You’ll have a chance to catch up. If you register for the class we will send you notices for addresses of where you can purchase class downloads or catch up on previous sessions.
Questions can be emailed directly to training@creativetechs.com
I wish I knew about this before.
The class already started but this sounded like a great learning opportunity.
Esther -
It’s possible that your registration didn’t complete. If you’d like me to check you can email me directly at training@creativetechs.com
Hey I signed up for the photography class and never got an email re: the login or location of the class.
What happened????
K8 -
Craig is working on ways that we can put up the previous week’s class for a limited time so that people who have missed them can catch up. It is one of many, many things he is working on so I can’t promise we’ll have that available before next week’s session.
In the future, if you haven’t gotten an email notification 45 minutes before the class begins email us at training@creativetechs.com and I’ll send you a log in link.
Hi all. David, I guess I’d better chime in here, finally – I never received a link; just notification of acceptance and when the course was scheduled to start. Can I still view the missed first class somehow?
Thanks :`s
