It was that exact walk through that got me hooked to Abduzeedo.
Happy anniversary and best wishes for the future.

Hope i win those cards, it would be perfect timing for me as im shopping around for vendors here, but Tokyo is WAY too expensive.

Best wishes.

This is by far one of the best design webpages I've ever seen!!! keep the great job!

Wow!

For readers like me who started following your website a while after it started, it's always nice to find links to some old posts!

:)

Wow give them to me!

Cheers!

Congratulations your success is well deserved.

True, the success IS well deserved, and the smoke designs might just well be what describes Abduzeedo best.
Actually it was these great looking and fascinating designs (and the the cool "recipe" to them you could provide) that got me into Aduzeedo in the first place - and I've been abducted since!
Thanks for the great tutorials and marvelous everyday inspirations, now, throughout 2 years!

Congratulations

Congratulations im here everyday to see what fantastic new stuff you have to show me.

Congratulations! You've definitely made far during the past 2 years!

Wow...it's amazing!
Hope to win this abducontest....

Congrats! For me, Abduzeedo is and always will be an inspiration spot. Nice to hear, that its 2 years now.
Pop the bottles!

You have really made it with Abduzeedo. I love this site and I'm checking it out atleast twice a day! Great work. And as "srpsco" said; Your success is well deserved!

This tutorial is so 2007 :P

A while ago I sucsessfully made vector smoke, and it actually looks pretty realistic :) check it out: http://www.graphicriver.net/item/smoke/32040

Happy anniversary!!

Congratz!

Congratulations!

Congrats on the anniversary!
You can leave me out of the card contest, I've already won a t-shirt from you guys and I feel somewhat ashamed that I don't participate more within the community. I visit Abduzeedo every couple of days or so and really enjoy it. Keep up the good work!!

I've been abducted since the middle of my graduation, about the beggining 2007.

In 2008, while spending kind of 6 months out of Brazil (Yes, I'm brazilian... and very proud of Fabio...) I didn't access the ABDUZEEDO all this time. And I remember that, when I came back, after check my e-mails and social profiles, ABDUZEEDO was the first url I accessed ... hehehe

The smoke tutorial was a really new thing... and it goes on nowadays...

Keep on the good work...keep on abducting all of us...

Congratulations from a proud brazilian guy!

i stumbled across your website while playing in digg one day at my boring retail job, your tutorials inspired me to get back in my graphic design and to actually use my degree instead of just letting it sit in the cupboard, 6 years since i graduated and i never put it to use but by following your tuts, seeing the inspiration and building a passion for the craft again has inspired me to freelance and i haven't been happier.
no more world of warcraft for me, i'm busy following trend on abduzeedo.
cheers you rock.

Congratulations, it just only 2 of many years to come ahead.
great initiative that you had. cheers

oldies but goldies, nice!

Congratulations, actually that tutorial brought me here! Really cool! keep on the good work!

Cheers

Wooots nice work doooood gratz ! =D

Good job.

Happy Anniversary!

It´s amazing how the blog has been growing and its content getting each time more interest! Congrats Fabio! Kepp up your amazing work.

Here we go again!

Free cards are always good. And congrats on 2 years!

I remember this tutorial when it came out on Abdu, but i didnt use it i have to admit!

But it gave me the idea of moving this whole smoke concept into photography, and with the help of this tut to tweak the effect just to perfection!

Abduzeedo is seriously become one of the best site to visit when it comes to design in general, all the other site are loosing quality!

Keep it fresh Abduzeedo,

Falou

You doing such a great job out there. I´ve been following your work since last year and I´ll continueing.

That was an awesome tutorial. Thanks

New to your blog but it's one of my favorites and I'm having a hard time understanding how it slipped under my radar for so long. Great site.

I discovered this place from digg. Best site I have come across other than digg.

I've never won ANYTHING in my life, except a free ticket on a scratch-lottery, ONCE.

Let me try this one. I could use some business cards, for personal use.

I just saw a tweet for ANOTHER business card giveaway:

http://www.eyeondesigns.com/?p=552

race you there...

Awesome!
Congrats!

...and it's still a great tutorial.

Crazy to think it all started with the Smoke Tut. I have been following your tuts for a while now and a lot of them have really improved my skills and allowed me to create some really great projects. Keep up the amazing work!

Congratulations with the 2 year anniversary of smoke tutorial.

I first 'discovered' your site in july of 2008 and I got hooked on it ever since. I check out your site / blog everyday (!!) for new inspirations.
It made me get into Graphic Design more than ever. I study Interactive Media and the Graphic Design part gets, unfortunately, not much attention. I have to teach it myself (illustrator, photoshop in general) and I always make the tutorials you post online. I've learned a lot from your tutorials, but I never copy them completely. I always take small parts of it and experiment with each step of the tutorial.

All the best.

The only design site I have Quick Bookmarked!

Hi!

Thank you for this tutorial! I used it in the past for one of my project!

This is one of the posts that helped get me hooked on your site. Congratulations on 2 great years since.
These cards would be a great help now that I'm having to look for work with the newspaper industry tanking.

first of all congrats for all the success and thanks for the awesome hell of tutorials.

Whenever i browse this place i find a search functionality missing......
and it wastes a lot of time browse all the posted pages to find out the effect am looking for...
Please see if you can implement the same

Realmente mandou bem na fumacinha Fabinho. (:

Happy Anniversary! This place is my first stop for inspiration and ideas n photoshop. I stumbled upon this site about 8 months ago and I am so glad I did.

There are a lot of tutorial sites and blogs out there with various photoshop tutorials and scribblings but there is a certain sleek finish to this site that makes it stand out. For me, this is the reason it has been so succesful, quality always shines through in the end!

Woah, has it really been 2 years since I found Abduzeedo!?
I remember, the first time I came on here was when I saw the smoke tutorial on Digg :D

I also hope I win the business cards, haha. UK printers are so over-priced!

<3

Congratulations!

Abduzeedo has fast become my go-to source for daily inspiration. It's hard to believe how far you've come since this first, iconic post.

Cheers.
