A new contest is just starting over in the Studio forum, with the new Exposure plugin from Alien Skin going to the winner. These contests are attracting some really strong talent, so check it out. And, if you're a vendor that would like to donate a prize for an upcoming contest, contact me.

I posted a really tough new Restoration Challenge, but I think it's a good example of a typical professional restoration job. And remember, Challenges never expire, so feel free to try your hand at any of them.

I was reminded last month that a lot of members haven't read the FAQ (or even know there is one), but you can read it up under the RetouchPRO link on the menubar.

And, as always, please email me thumbnails of images you have that might make good Challenges.
