[Scribus] Short Scribus video tutorials

[Riku Leino]

Hi,

I have created a few video tutorials about common questions which every now 
and then pop up here or the irc channel #scribus at freenode. The videos can 
be found at http://www.saunalahti.fi/rikle/scribus-vids/

This has been an experiment with a really cool desktop recorder called 
recordmydesktop and its frontend called gtk-recordmydesktop. I hope these few 
videos will convince you to create your own Scribus videos (possibly with 
even sound :) I was thinking about spreadding these using youtube or some 
other online video service but the quality with youtube just did not make it 
worth it.

Videos currently available are:
