Hello all,
As you've probably already seen over at twitter, 'Adobe AIR & PHP Development' is in production now and will probably be released online over the weekend.
'GIMP' is next in line. That will be out of review by tomorrow (06/12/09) and sent to production so expect that online next week.
Exchange 2007 is in editing.
Visual Studio 2008 is in editing.
MasterClass! Adobe Flex and Gateway API's should be wrapping up it's recording today or tomorrow.
PHP 5.x was reworked and restarted. That began recording this week and so did Inkscape.
Have a good weekend.

"Adobe AIR & PHP Development" is now 3 days behind schedule.
My apologies for that but we want to make sure the best course possible is released so I have taken to running checks on each edited movie twice to look for technical issues like "flashes" in the video or bad edits.
This is a good thing as we ran into a couple of issues with section two that have been remedied and the course is back on track. I am going through the second check as I write this and hope to send it to production for building tomorrow morning.
The "AIR" title was done by Richard Bates who has just launched a "Flash and PHP Development Center" with articles and tutorials for RIA/PHP developers.
At the same time GIMP is going through review and is planned to go to build next week.
This is an excellent tutorial from James Street, who also just finished recording a CSS2 course and is about to begin an Inkscape course. He has sent me some preliminary work for the Inkscape course that looks fantastic!
VTC work horse Mark Long's MS Exchange 2007 course is in editing now and he has begun recording Visual Studio 2008. Mark has recently signed up a "long term" deal so look for a title from him almost every month for the rest of 2009. Including MS Windows 7 when it comes out.

VTC author Trevor James helps out a viewer with the sometimes daunting world of Drupal 6 Imagefield.
So here's the deal with Imagefield in D6. It works in tandem with Filefield so it's a bit confusing. When you go to that drop down menu to choose "Image" it's not going to be there. So here's what you do:Want to learn more about Drupal? Visit Trevor's tutorial at VTC today.
1) Choose File in the type of data to store drop down
2) A second box will show to the right - choose IMAGE from this box (form element box)
I've added a screen shot to show you.
3) Click SAVE to save your new field
4) The Image settings form will appear next. Choose appropriate settings. Make sure to add the correct image extensions - for some reason it doesn't do this by default. I added: jpg jpeg png gif
Click Save field settings
5) Go to Create Content > your content type and the form will load. You should now see an image browse button - you can browse and upload your image here
6) One trick = make sure to adjust your content field permissions in PERMISSIONS (/admin/user/permissions) for that new image field you added or your anonymous site visitors will not see the uploaded image when you post it. Also make sure that anonymous users can view uploaded files.
