Stash the files somewhere convenient and memorable, so that
when I direct you to open one during an exercise, it won’t be
hard to find. I’m going to suggest you make a Lesson Files-
PsCS5 1on1 folder on your desktop into which you drag those
separate folders for each lesson. If you follow this suggestion,
the instructions I’ve supplied at the beginning of each exercise
will lead you right where you need to go.
- Decide whether you want to watch the videos at the site or
offline. At the outset of each book-based lesson, I’ll ask you
to play the companion video lesson. These video lessons in-
troduce key concepts that make more sense when first seen
in action. On the companion site, click the Watch button
next to the video you want, and it will play in a spiffy online
player (see Figure 3), which doesn’t require that you download
the movies or acquire a separate piece of software for playing
them. I think it’s a fairly nice experience, actually.
But if you have an unreliable Internet connection or you’d just
rather have the freedom of keeping the videos where you can
always get to them, click the Download button next to each les-
son to save them to your hard drive (and remember you’ll need
QuickTime to watch them if you choose that route).

The video lessons were crafted by the talented
folks at lynda.com. These high-quality videos are
not excerpts from other training materials but
created expressly to complement the lessons in
