When I created the very first version of Abduzeedo I did a simple logo because I didn't have much time back in 2006, I wanted the blog up and running as faster as possible. However after a few months I decided that it would be cool to have a nice and unique logo, but without using any symbol. That's why I chose to create a font instead of using an existing one and with Adobe Illustrator new anchor point features this task is much easier.
The wallpaper of this week is a beautiful illustration created by Chris Haines, a designer and illustrator from Perth, Western Australia. We have already featured Chris a few times on Abduzeedo, but he has just updated his portfolio with some new and really cool works and sent us this wallpaper :)

The book suggestion of this week is about typography and it's a great source of inspiration. The book is called New Vintage Type: Classic Fonts for the Digital Age and we have used it for reference in many tutorials here on Abduzeedo.
