I have posted about how to create the neon effect in Photoshop a couple of times, however I still get emails from readers asking me how I did the light effect I use on the Abduzeedo logo. So I decided to simplify the process and show you how to create the this effect in very simple steps using basically Layer Styles and a few brushes.
Step 1
Open Photoshop and create a new document. I'm using 1920x1200 pixels. Fill the background with black.
The wallpaper of this week is an image from Saad Moosajee and it is an illustration that is a part of his new series, nature in technicolor. We also are offering wallpapers for the new iPad with Retina Display.

The book suggestion of this week is very inspiring, especially for those out there fans of LPs. The book is called The Art of the LP: Classic Album Covers 1955-1995 and it has a great variety of cover design styles from punk rock to pop all divided by thematic chapters.
