KW Media Group, publishers of the Photoshop Elements Techniques newsletter, announced yesterday that they will no longer publish the newsletter. No reason was given (the blurb on the web site simply states “Thank you for your interest in the Photoshop Elements Techniques Newsletter. New subscriptions are not being accepted at this time because the publication is going to be discontinued.“), and current subscribers (according to the announcement in their forum) will be offered “something” as compensation for unfulfilled newsletter subscription mailings. A few guesses as to what this will be are free downloads, back issues, and/or DVDs, but there’s nothing official yet.

They also announced that their web site and forum will remain operational - at least for now.

Needless to say, a lot of new subscribers were less than impressed. Or satisfied. Or consoled.

Anyway, I’m going to offer up a little consolation prize for those who have subscribed to their newsletter, were going to subscribe, or had no intention of subscribing, by making a special coupon code that will knock 33% off everything in the Graffishop.

This is good for the new Handy Actions 3, Handy Actions Lite, Sketchy Paint 3, Glam Photo 3, B&W Lab 3, Fun Foto FX 3 and/or Add-O-Matic for Elements 5.

It really helps if you decide to grab the Bundle Pack of all of them (the PSE 5 version now includes Add-O-Matic, by the way) - since it’s already on sale for 33% off, this additional 33% off coupon makes it only $32.13 each - down from the regular $72! 

How do you use it? Add the stuff you want to your cart, then go to checkout. In the Coupon Code section, just enter

PSE-Technique

in the Discount Coupon section.

I won’t post this in their forum, but maybe one or more of the visitors from there will spread the word around.  This coupon code will stay active until November 15 - so grab yourself an early Holiday gift!
