Last week I decided to come up with a new variation of the Abduzeedo symbol, as I have been doing this every year pretty much since the beginning of the blog. So for this year my ideas was to create something more minimalistic with a sort of vintage style. I also wanted to reduce the light effects, make them very subtle.
So in this tutorial/case study I will show you how I created the Abduzeedo 2011 symbol.
The wallpaper of this week is a design I created inspired by the Heroes series. I did the image because I wanted to try to create the eclipse effect of the opening titles of that show using only Photoshop. Of course in the end I had to add some little textures to make it looks a bit older, with that vintage feel.
Check out the tutorial: Very Easy Heroes Eclipse in Photoshop.
The book suggestion of the week is about Jeff Bezos and the history of Amazon.com. One Click: Jeff Bezos and the Rise of Amazon.com is a really good book, very inspiring and motivating especially about believing on what you are doing and focus on the long term when doing things.
