I've collected some links for those who still have a hard time using the pen tool.
All these links will also be added to the first thread (called "Sticky: 214 links: Photoshop/Photography/Drawing/etc...") in the Links forum ( http://www.photoshopgurus.info/forum/viewtopic.php?t=1232 ).

Video Tutorial
http://www.computer-training-software.com/illustrator10.htm *
* Go to the section called "Pen Tool Techniques". The tutorial is for Illustrator only,
but that shouldn't be a problem, since the vector tools in Illustrator & Photoshop alsmost work the same.
And now I don't want to hear any excuses anymore from anybody (including me) for not using the Pen Tool

Yeppers, there's lots of folks around here who can make use of that wonderful collection of links you've amassed. (When do you find the time... how do you do it? [confused] )
