In 2007 I wrote a Photoshop tutorial for PSDTUTS that was a user request, actually it was a request from not one but quite a few readers, they wanted to know how to create the MSNBC header effect. Back in those days it was a brand new design with a very colorful background image on the header. Now in 2010, they have a new website design and I was invited to help them with the background image.
The wallpaper of this week is a really beautiful photo of a bear with a bokeh effect from Javelines, a digital artist from Russia. I hope you like it. And if you want to feature your wallpaper just send it to us via email to abduzeedo@abduzeedo.com or via twitter at http://twitter.com/abduzeedo.

The book of this week is not a design book per se but it's an incredible book. I have just finished it and I got so much valuable information that can be applied in my day to day job as designer. The book is called Why We Buy: The Science of Shopping--Updated and Revised for the Internet, the Global Consumer, and Beyond by Paco Underhill.
