The link is nearly impossible to find, so here it is.

Also, for those of you who would like Photoshop, but can’t afford it (most of humanity I believe,) you could try the Gimp, a freeware graphics program created by the University of Minnesota. It has almost all the functions of Photoshop and none of the cost. You can find it here.

I believe Brendan even pointed out they have a Photoshop appearance plugin so the layout will look the same.

Mack went over a bit of this in his Photoshop workshop, but the methods for using the Photoshop interface for digital art rather than picture editing are quite different. Thus, an introduction to Photoshop for digital coloring. I hope its helpful to those of you who’d like to get a head start on doing this before I give a workshop on it.
