Photoshop Latino - Spanish Language Photoshop Blog
November 11, 2008
Our good friend Enrique who runs The Photoshop Roadmap has launched a Spanish version of his site, Photoshop Latino. Here's the whole story from Enrique, and to give you a taste of the real thing, you can read all about Photoshop Latino in Spanish as well just below. Felicitaciones Enrique! And we wish you good luck with your new site.
Do You Speak Photoshop in Spanish?
To make it short, I have just launched a new site. Photoshop Latino is a Photoshop tutorials and resources blog in Spanish. Period. Now, the long version of this story...
The Photoshop Roadmap was born in year 1999 as a directory of Photoshop sites and tutorials. Over the time, the websites directory was removed and I focused only in tutorials and resources, such as plugins, brushes and other downloads, all related to Photoshop and design.
Two years ago, I decided to start writing my own tutorials. My goal was to teach somewhat advanced effects but with an approach to beginners. That involved writing very extensive tutorials such as Creating a Colorful Print and Play Puzzle, Creating a wet and muddy rocks texture, or even my latest tutorial Papercraft text effect.
Later, I created very successful Photoshop tutorials lists such as The best 80 Text Effects of the web, 100 awesome high resolution Photoshop Brushes or 100 Photo Effects photoshop tutorials, to mention a few.
It was inevitable then, to consider launching a site in my native language, Spanish. Some good friends of mine insisted that it was time to do it. And since I had a nice amount of tutorials already written, I said, why not? So, I´m very pleased to anounce the launch of Photoshop Latino, my Spanish version of the Photoshop Roadmap Blog.
There are a lot of great Photoshop sites in Spanish such as Diego Mattei blog by my friend Diego Mattei from Argentina, Blog Vecindad Gráfica by Adan Avelar Islas from México or Photoshop Extremo by a group of artists from Latin America and Spain. And those are only a few. There are a lot more. So this will be a great challenge. So, can you speak Photoshop in Spanish? If so, then come around to Photoshop Latino and I´m sure you will have a good time!
Qué es Photoshop Latino
Resulta imposible definir el destino de un blog en el primer post. De todas maneras el nombre de éste sitio ya condiciona su contenido de manera implacable. Se trata de escribir sobre Photoshop, en castellano.
Sin embargo, sería conveniente aclarar que, inicialmente, la razón que me llevó a publicar éste blog es muy simple y sencilla: traducir los artículos y guías que he estado escribiendo en Inglés para mi Blog del sitio Photoshop Roadmap.
Esta tarea, a primera vista muy sencilla, viene acompañada de varios problemas inherentes a nuestro idioma. Mi intención es escribir en un Castellano neutro que puedan entender todos los de habla hispana y sin localismos (argentinismos en mi caso).
Con respecto a la traducción de los artículos o guías que fueron escritas originalmente en Inglés, mantendré las capturas de pantallas originales. Esto significa que las mismas tendrán los comandos de Photoshop en Inglés. En el texto de los artículos intentaré escribir cada comando en Inglés y Castellano.
Para facilitar más las cosas, al comienzo de cada artículo, colocaré un link a este PDF con la traducción de los comandos de Photoshop en Inglés y Castellano. Espero también la colaboración de ustedes, los lectores, para indicarme errores cuya corrección pueda ayudar a la mejor comprensión del artículo, o simplemente a solucionar problemas ortográficos.
Por ahora no tengo mucho más que agregar excepto que mi nombre es Enrique Flouret y vivo en la Ciudad de Buenos Aires, en Argentina.

Plugins for Photoshop allow you to either do something that you cannot do with the features included in Photoshop or they allow you to do something easier, faster or better than you could do in Photoshop without the plug-in. Whether it is color correction, resizing, masking or creating an effect, you can find a Photoshop plug-in that can help you be more efficient with your time.
Did You Know You Could Create An Entire Website In Photoshop?
SiteGrinder Photoshop Plugin - Create Websites Instantly
There often seems to be a strict division of labor within the world of web design and development. Creative professionals tend to stick to the Photoshop domain, while those well-versed in scripting are left to the task of implementing their work. Indeed, the two realms are quite different from each other, to which any of us even vaguely familiar with either can easily attest.
Essentially, Photoshop is a no-holds-barred design studio, offering the artist a seemingly endless array of creative options. On the other hand, HTML, CSS, Java and the like follow strict rules of engagement, requiring the developer to take any number of esoteric concerns into consideration in order to ensure that designs are properly displayed on the web.
Turn Photoshop Into A Complete Web Design Tool
SiteGrinder seeks to bridge this gap between design and development. Basically, this program turns Photoshop into an easy-to-use and fully functional web design tool. With SiteGrinder, designers will now have the freedom to totally let their creativity loose and then, without skipping a beat, transfer their designs to the web. Bringing esthetic concerns together with more practical considerations, this program is an amazingly powerful tool that would make a fantastic addition to any web designer's bag of tricks.
Generate Your Web Pages Directly From Photoshop
By generating web pages directly from Photoshop, you'll be able to spend much more time on the creative end of the spectrum, since you'll know right off the bat how well particular designs will translate to the web. No more going back to the Photoshop drawing board after getting a phone call from your development team, telling you that what you had envisioned doesn't have a chance of being displayed on the web. You can immediately visually and interactively test your designs, which permits you to then make changes to either esthetics or functions while it's still relatively early on in the design process.
Pricing and Availability
Mac OS X and Windows versions of the SiteGrinder unlockable demo are available now via download. SiteGrinder can be ordered from Media Lab's online store.
