Default Here is a valuable tip for newbies and veterans

Let me make a suggestion to all my scrolling friends/compadre. If you have not been following Sheila Landry's scrolling how to videos. I urge you newbie and veteran alike to do so.

They are very well done, 10 so far. It never hurts to see someone elses technique and she does a very good job of explaining every step.

So head on over and take her scrolling class. It is free! Time well spent! Sheila I've been scrolling for a long time back in the 80's and I have picked up a couple of tips as well.

That's great Mike. I didn't know about these classes for some reason. I love learning new stuff. My technique can always use some help.

Cheers Mike, we're never too old to learn new tricks. I've been on Sheila's site a lot and have had some patterns from her but never realised she had video turorials. I will certainly take a look.

Great tip Mike! - these are excellently produced videos and writeups and are worth their weight in gold for newcomers to scrolling as well as maybe giving alternative techniques to the more experieced scroller. Well worth a view.
