looking at all the different online classes and wonder if anybody has actually taken an online photography class they liked
i hear you but i am a sailor and am not in one location long enough to take an in person class. thanks, those are some good links
 
for me I wouldn't take one online, I would rather go to a class, mainly cause you get more in-depth experience, not much one-on-one help in online classes, but some people are different.
 
On line classes in general, lack some important values found in a proper classroom setting. There are some resources that will add value to your photo skills, but actual classes can be more frustrating than anything else.

Interaction with fellow students, on site, on time assistance from instructors and seeing how others interpret the same assignment (ten or twenty other right ways to complete the same assignment).

Many times when you just don't feel like working, the energy of those around you can kick-start your creative energy ... sitting in front of a computer is usually not something photographers want to do. The people who like to do that become digital image retouchers, post production wizards and pre-press techs.
