Tutorial of the Month
This month's tutorial is on creating calendars in Photoshop. The video's on this page use a method of screen grabbing monthly calendars from the Windows Date/Time function for each month and using those to populate a one-page 12-month 11x14 calendar where you can slip in your favorite 11x14 photo into the background.
If you prefer a full sheet for each month, I recommend using Jeffrey's Calendar Builder Photoshop Script. Download the script file to a convenient location such as your desktop and double-click on it. It should launch Photoshop and present you with a dialog box to customize your calendar settings. Here is an example of one that I did. Full instructions are available here.
My personal favorite is the CD Case Calendar from 455 Rocket. I use 3 11x14 sheets instead of 7 8.5x11 sheets for printing.
