1) General Interest

Town Hall Meeting: THIS Wednesday Night, 7pm, at the Resource Center
Would you like to see TBCS add more services?  Would you like to be more involved in our club?  Please join us for a chance to voice your opinions, your gripes, your suggestions, etc. about TBCS.

For a lot of us, the TBCS Resource Center has become not only a place to learn, but a place to hang out with other's who are interested in computers.  We have some interesting and innovative things happening at our club.  Here's your chance to make a difference, and socialize with fellow club members also.  Refreshments will be provided.

Note: speaking of those refreshments... I've been trying to recruit someone to help out with refreshments that night without success.  I just want coffee, sodas, & water for beverages. Chips and cookies to eat.  Nothing elaborate.  Will someone please step up and volunteer for this task?  Please send an email to the Club Secretary if you're willing to help out.  Thanks bunches!

We have many ways today to share our photographs.  One that is gaining popularity is creating a slide show with your digital images. An affordable but powerful software program for creating digital slide shows is Photodex’s Proshow Gold. This class will teach all aspects of creating a slide show including: importing images, making minor enhancements, selecting transitions, timing, captions, adding panning and zooming, a soundtrack, and voice over narration.

3) SIG Stuff

Our SIGs (Special Interest Groups) all meet at our Resource Center
(map: http://www.tampa-bay.org/maps.htm).
All of our SIGs are free to our members.

SIGs are a great place to get more personalized attention, and get your questions answered. The following SIGs will meet this week:

Monday, June 25, 7-9pm
Publishing Software SIG. Led by Stacy Lloyd

After our usual Q & A, I plan to explore a little bit of InDesign CS3.  I say a little bit because any Adobe program cannot be covered quickly.  So we will cover what we can cover.
