As a final reminder of how completely awesome the Utah Open Source Conference is and why you should attend, we present a final video from UTOSC 2008: Glenda Rhodes presenting on GIMP for Photographers. This video is now available at OpenSourceTV.TV as a in-line Flash video and also as Ogg Theora and Xvid AVI downloads.

Glenda Rhodes

This presentation discusses using GIMP as an alternative to Photoshop for editing digital photos. Basic GIMP techniques (black/white, sepia, cropping) and some advanced techniques (layer masks for selective coloring, head-swapping, background blurring) are covered.

The Utah Open Source Conference 2009 is just around the corner, October 8-10, 2009 is not too far away!!  It’s time to submit your presentations. UTOSC 2008 received over 90 submissions, and we ended up with over 50 presentations.  The odds are good that if your presentation is a good open source topic, it will get selected.

The Call for Papers for UTOSC 2009 is officially open! Paper submission deadline is August 15, 2009 at Midnight, just under 2 months prior to UTOSC 2009, October 8-10 2009.

Don’t let the rain ruin your fun.  Come to the InterLUG BBQ anyway.  We’ll still be there cooking burgers and giving away drinks, bring your fruit salad and get on over to Scera Park.

Where:  Scera Park, Red Pavilion.  This is on the east side of the park. (map)

When:  Saturday (Today), June 20, 2009 - 12pm - 2pm
