Back in July I wrote a tutorial showing how to create the effect I use on Abduzeedo's logo, a very subtle light effect, sort of neon style. The tutorial is the Shining Neon Text Effect in Adobe Photoshop if you want to check it out. Also I decided to mix it a bit with the animation features that we have now in Photoshop.
The wallpaper of this week is an image created by Alex Beltechi for the 5th Anniversary of Abduzeedo. Alex Beltechi is an artist and designer based in the city of Oradea, Romania. Although a student at a Visual Arts University, he also teaches the tools of his trade through various blogs and magazines.
Alex frequently experiments with a wide range of tools and techniques, more recently culminating in illustrated typography. If he's not found scribbling design schemes, you may find him pestering the world with his amateur photography or slamming piano keys furiously.
