Tutorial9 - Tutorial Bliss.

Last Week on T9 (6/30/08)

Tyler Bramer shares a wonderful technique for enhancing designs with a splash of color, while Fredrick offers some useful photography tips for avoiding problems in the field.  We’d also like to give a big thanks to our newest sponsor!

Things rolled by pretty quickly this week.  Been pretty busy with some new living arrangements, and seem to be coming down with something, but I didn’t forget about this weeks roundup!  Good news for me is that it’s a relatively short update (not necessarily bad for you, our readers, as Tyler and Fredrick both posted awesome articles over the past few days)!

Also, I wanted to make sure I had a chance to thank our sponsors (including our new one from Media Lab!):

  • W3 Markup - Service for slicing PSD to HTML, CSS, & XHTML.
  • Site Grinder - Photoshop plugin for turning your designs into websites with no coding involved!
  • VPS Media - Xen VPS Hosting for Designers and Developers!


Seriously, without these sponsors, we couldn’t keep all this wonderful content available for free.  Be sure to pay’em a visit!

Well, better get back to Photoshop. I keep letting little things distract me from getting this new tutorial finished. Think you’ll like it. It’s got a pretty spiffy 3D effect that reminds me a lot of… *GASP* Haha, these WALL-E Easter Eggs are awesome!

    Yeah, been that way for a week or so. I think it’s this sickness creeping over me. I’m pushing through it though :)

    Just finished up one of the several tutorials I’m working on. Also got a hefty load of links for this months roundup gathered (lots of user submitted ones this time around, so it ought to be a good one)!
