I'm really excited about this giveaway - it's for
photo-editing software from Magix...
You can find out more about it by clicking the link, but I can tell you now: it looks pretty impressive. I was sent a copy to review, and I was a little worried it might go over my head. I'm not the most technical of people. I think perhaps I'm much better with a very low-tech pencil and paper!
I needn't have worried. The learning curve is quite a gentle one (although I'll admit I'm still on the nursery slopes!) and there are hints on the page as you are using it - they're quite subtle and not at all intrusive, so look out for them as you may miss them to begin with.
If you do find the learning curve a little bit too steep for your liking, you'll find tutorials in the
Magix online magazine as well as their
You-Tube channel, so there's no need to feel like something is confusing or insurmountable. There's even a forum to ask questions (you'll discover it during the download process). As a former teacher, I really like the fact they've made allowances for different learning styles and preferences in the presentation of their information.

Photo editing software is useful for pretty much anyone, but especially useful if you sell your crafts online: we all know how important a good image is when buying and selling... it's what your customer uses when deciding to buy. You can use Magix photo-editing software for videos, too - which are a great way of increasing views to your blog or website (Google does love a good video!).
Magix also run competitions on their
Facebook page so it might be worth popping over there for a like!
