…yummy Photoshop

Yup, you got it, more o’ the good stuff.  Found some more useful tutorials today.  This one’s basically a crash course in the application, but I figured it’s a good addition to my growing list of resources.  Can’t hurt to revisit your basics every once in a while.  I’m exhausted at the moment, had a tuna burrito, then a lamb burger, then pizza and apparently it’s taking more energy to metabolize than I’d anticipated.  But that’s fine by me.  Sleep never hurt anybody .

Anyway…here’s the link, and here’s another random resource in case you were interested in that last building-custom-themes-for-WordPress video series I posted about.  Enjoy .

Holy Photoshop!

I’ve been watching Adobe’s screencasts the past few days (one on web-based DVDs and one this morning on the Lightroom 2/Photoshop CS4 combo) and have found through them a bunch of new resources for this type of work. Coolness! So from this morning, Julieanne Kost was the host and her website is chock-full of Photoshop and Lightroom tips, with links to her videos on Adobe TV as well and a separate Photoshop Tip of the Day blog, as well as an additional resources page with links to other useful sites on the net.

Also, I’ve gotten hooked on the TutsPlus network of site (PSDTuts, NetTuts, AudioTuts, VectorTuts, AETuts) with their wealth of knowledge and tips and whatnot from all kinds of people.  Lastly, I’ve been watching ThemeForest’s tutorial series on making custom themes for WordPress (no promises, but possibly in the future of blog of blake).

Mozilla Ubiquity

Ubiquity is a term I associate with the internet, however, after watching this video, I’m beginning to think it may become more manageable in the next few years.  Check it out.

I’ve been watching this artist for a while and just decided to post about this one piece I found today.  It’s a pretty cool style, and though it might not be overwhelmingly good to some, I think it’s pretty sweet.  So yea, here’s the latest, title “Romeo E.”  Check their gallery out here.

John Brickels

“Buildings, Claymobiles, Robots and Machines” is this guy’s slogan, and he certainly delivers.  I remember seeing his clay houses for sale in the window of Vermont Artisans when I lived near Brattleboro, and just was telling a friend about these houses and found his website.  He’s got some kickass stuff, so I decided to show it off here.  Check it out, it’s pretty sweet.
