@sensualclimber – Most retouching or lightroom work can be done at a basic level by tools you may already have such as iPhoto on Mac and the new tools found in Windows 7. Retouching includes things like, removing blemishes, fixing redeye, changing color balance.
Composition work however requires more robust tools. To remove a background or composite photos in a meaningful way you will need a tool such as Photoshop or The Gimp. The Gimp is free but has a tremendous learning curve and less sophisticated tools. Photoshop is very expensive, has a similiarily high learning curve but far more sophisticated tools that can do magic things such as erase items from a picture fairly simply.

To put videos from your iPhone on your account you have to first transfer them to your computer using iTunes.

StudioVeena.Com is built on one of the most robust edge networks in the world. We have made a sizeable investments both monetarily and in sweat equity for our video platform. When you experience video problems there are several things that could be at issue but I can't help with vague complaints on this forum post I can only help if you contact me and we work through the issues individually.
Thank-you for your understanding.

Speedtest is 100% legit. Many Internet providers use it to benchmark new installs. If you were asked to pay you either clicked an advertisement or have spyware on your machine that hijacks web addresses on your computer and redirects to another site.

There are alot of reasons for lag. Video is a very complex endeavor on the Internet. If you are having problems please contact me directly with you location and the results of the test found at http://www.speedtest.net

@hookedonpole – All lesson purchases that occur in June as dictated by the central timezone which is where we are located.

@GlitterGoddess – There are two aspects to StudioVeena.Com mobile.
1) The website itself. The site automatically transforms into a mobile formatted site to be more easily viewed on a mobile device.
2) Video. This one is tougher, your device has to support h.264 and resizing to its native resolution in order to work properly. All blackberry devices I tested did work, but this support is a function of the phone hardware and not WebOS.
Hopefully this answers your question.

Since its a javascript interaction there are two likely causes:
1) High latency on your internet connection, which is typical of dial-up, satellite and shared internet connections.
2) A malware infection on your computer.

@LopsiJulie – The blogs are for all members paying or not. You start a blog simply by clicking the blogs link and then clicking "Write A Blog"
@PolefitFanatic – Reposting blogs is not an issue for Google unless they are reposted on sites with no reputation or on brand new IP addresses. Content aggregation is a very common practice in the news and blogging industry that has proven benefits to the aggregator and content generator.

Madfelice, where are you located and how do you connect to the internet?
Our lessons are specially encoded for iPhone and iPad devices and will play very well on these devices. However on your iPhone there are other potential issues such as downstream bandwidth from your cellular provider. When the cellular network is congested this can cause difficulties in watching streaming content.
Known causes of underperformance of lessons streams at home are:
1) living in an area where we do not have an edge location such as the African Continent
2) Slow internet, if your downstream speed is less than 1 Mb per second you will have difficulty watching videos, you can test this at http://www.speedtest.net
3) using DNS entries that are not provided by your ISP (this is very common if you have a techie or geek in your house) non-standard DNS entries can disrupt detection of the correct edge location or route your traffic through slower or more convuluted paths -
I know some people have had luck on the PS3. That being said, video delivery is very complex. We have neither verified nor engineered specifically for the PS3. Your platform has to support h.264 and unless it is an Android or Apple device must also support flash.

GhettoBarbie – I sent you an email regarding this, your videos are not recognized as videos by our encoder. A common mistake is to upload a project file rather than the actual video itself.
