Dear User Group members,
It's beginning to look a lot like a CS4 Christmas. We have quite a few CS4 titles releasing this month, some that are already available, and more to come in December! We've got it all covered, from InDesign to ActionScript to Fireworks.
Find out below about the Aperture Nature Photography Workshops Contest, Moxie "the VQS Bunny", and the upcoming conferences we'll be attending.

HERE'S...MOXIE–THE VISUAL QUICKSTART GUIDE BUNNY
A couple of years ago you helped us name the bunny that appears on our popular Visual QuickStart Guides. Moxie "the VQS Bunny" has continued to grace the covers of a variety of new titles, and now you can see Moxie's first ever action role. Feel free to help Moxie multiply, share the video with your members, your friends, your kids!
