PSDTUTS is Looking for Another Regular Tutorial Writer

Apr 28th in News by Sean Hodge

Yes, we're looking for another great regular writer. Do you posses the artistic talent to create outstanding Photoshop designs, while having the ability to explain all the steps that got you to that final image? If that sounds like you, then we would like to hear from you.

Author: Sean Hodge

Hi All! Tutorials are awesome. I'm really into writing them, visit AiBURN. I'm from the US, but living on the beach in Venezuela. My studio is Connection Cube. Thats where I get to do graphics, web design, and write for some great companies! I love working on creative projects!

New Regular Tutorial Writer

We're looking for a talented Photoshop Master. The position requires you to be reliable and determined to come up with new ideas every week, which isn't always an easy task. The ideal candidate will be skilled in multiple areas of design and be an excellent communicator who writes well in English.

Regular Weekly Submission Process

This is how the tutorials would be submitted each week. Before the end of each week you would send us a tutorial idea along with a polished image for review. You would also submit the finalized tutorial that was approved the week before.

So each week you submit two things:

  • One Finalized Tutorial Ready to be Published
  • One New Tutorial Idea with an Image for Review

Compensation

By signing on as a regular tutorial writer, you qualify for additional compensation for the tutorials that you write. We pay $200 per tutorial for regular contributers. And if you have what it takes to write Plus tutorials, then we can discuss further compensation.

Application Process

If you would like to be considered for this position, send us your best tutorial. Show us how polished and professional both your final image and writing is. Also, include a link to your portfolio and a brief description of why you're a good fit for the position.

Use our normal tutorial submission form, but in the the section marked, please provide a short paragraph about you, including additional information about your intention to be considered for this position.

Use the instructions on the Write a Tutorial page when formating your tutorials. Also, you can find some helpful advice in the post, Five Important Criteria that Make a Great Photoshop Tutorial.

Feel free to pose questions in the comments, but keep in mind only those that go through the submission process will be considered for this position. Good luck to everybody! And we look forward to adding another member to the PSDTUTS team.


Enjoy this Post?

    Will you guys be still accepting contributions even after regular writers?
    I have some Great ideas, but kind off tied up with other projects right now. But I would love to be contributor for both nettuts and PSDtuts, if you guys are still open.

    Thats alittle too much… Well anyway; I hope to see a creative dude winning this one.


  16. Nate April 28th

    This is totally cool. More content with the same level of quality is going to be a ++ for PSDTUTS. Thanks Sean and Collis, the internet is a better place b/c of you 2.

    Cheers =)

    Note: I know someone personally who is a fantastic designer/teacher with a great deal of experience in web/print/illustration and I have mentioned to him about the opportunity to write tutorials for you guys in exchange for extra cash and notoriety. Drop him an email and see if he would be interested. Here’s a little bit of the work he has done.

    Hi Sean! I´ve tried to contact you via e-mail and I´ve submitted the tutorial via the submittion form - but unfortunatelly didn´t get any answer from you - therefore I´m trying it this way. I´m really interested in this position, please, read my e-mail :-) thank you! Vaclav


  18. TheWriter April 29th

    Ok, I’ll take the $200

    Plus 1ct per visit and $1 per digg

    That would be fair for all, in my opinion.

  21. Andrew D April 29th

    200 dollars is alot of money for this kind of work, expecting some good tutorials.


  22. Sean Hodge April 29th

    @Vaclav

    This position we’re advertising for is in addition with working with you. Your already one of our regular contributors and don’t need to reapply. I’ve sent through another email today. Let me know if you don’t receive something. Otherwise, I look forward to hearing from you.

    And good luck to everybody that applies. Thanks.

  24. Arik April 29th

    Hmm, i’ve been trying to reach the 4 tuts a month mark but I was really afraid I would oversaturate you guys causing you to simply deny my work. I guess I was wrong, I’ll get on it again I guess :p

    Oh and Sean, I’m finishing up that text tut as I am typing :P

  26. Terry April 29th

    FABIOOOOO!!! GET ON IT!!!!!!


  27. Tyler Bramer April 29th

    Are you going to leave this open for submissions for a few weeks? Because I would very much like to write a completely new tutorial from scratch just for this.


  28. Aminur Rahman [aka Tom R] April 29th

    i can’t access the flickr page :-S


  29. Mr Tutorial : New Tutorial Site April 29th

    Intresting that you guys pay so much? Where does you revenue come from for this?


  30. goldenthunder April 29th

    someday lol. good luck to all.


  31. Sean Hodge April 30th

    Hey Everybody,

    We’ve had a few questions about how long this offer will be up? Also, if we are accepting regular tutorials as well?

    We are planning to leave this opportunity up for a few weeks. We are looking to fill a reliable tutorial writer position here at PSDTUTS. Deciding on the right applicant will likely take time.

    Though even if that position is filled we can still discuss other opportunities. We’re looking to build long term relationships with talented Designers.

    We will continue to offer options to write one off tutorials at the $125 price, or write tutorials on occasion at the $125 price. This long term position, which would qualify you for the $200 per tutorial price, is in addition to those opportunities.

    There are plenty of opportunities here for tutorial writers. We are very selective about Plus material, but for the right person there are opportunities here for that as well.

    @Mr Tutorial - Collis has been transparent about revenue on the site. It comes from Plus Memberships and the Ads in the top right of the sidebar.


  32. Tyler Bramer April 30th

    Thanks for the update on the information Sean. Will be submitting my entry once I am happy with the content of the tutorial. I love the feedback on this community and the content that it share.


  33. K3v April 30th

    I’m really interested in this opportunity but at the moment I don’t think I could manage to write a tutorial every week.

    But you’ll still offer options to write on occasion you say Sean, so I think I might give that a try :)


  34. Ali May 1st

    its an excellent part-time job.


  35. Constantin Potorac May 1st

    I just cannot get enough of these great news :)


  36. Sean Hodge May 4th

    @K3v - Yes we still accept tutorials from various authors. Even if you only have time for one great idea and tutorial, we will consider it. We have updated our submission process to allow for sending in concepts with explanations first. Basically, your pitching us your idea first. Payment for those tutorials has been increased to $150.

    @Everybody - We are still accepting applications for a Regular writing position that pays out at $200. We are considering more than one writer as well. For those that don’t have a portfolio, it makes it difficult for us to evaluate your skill. Try putting together a simple portfolio on Behance or a Flickr group with a variety of your work in it before applying.

    Thx

    Hope you find someone!
