The Abduzeedo Card Design Contest

August 28, 2008 from abduzeedo's blog

A few months ago we had the first contest here on Abduzeedo, the Icon Contest. It was really cool, we had lots of nice designs and great participation. Now we've decided to start a new contest, a small one, but with more winners. Our idea is to motivate you to practice and try different things.

The new contest will be all about card design. It may be a business card or just a conceptual card, it's up to you, and it's up to you the subject, it's not a card for abduzeedo. Our friends from UPrinting.com will give to the winners the opportunity to have their cards printed, what is really cool. Take a look at some information about the Business cards.

The winner will be able to choose any of UPrinting.com stocks, including the eco-friendly cover stock (13 pt. Cover Uncoated - Recycled) or the the 14 pt. family in Matte, AQ, or UV at any custom size we offer such as square cards, odd sizes like 3x3, 2x2. For more information about the sizes and features visit the the Business Card Printing page on UPrinting.com.

 Beijing 2008 Logo Light Painting in Photoshop
This is not new, I have already shown this effect a few times but as last week I created a wallpaper for CSNGLOBAL, using an image of a guy painting their logo and I have received some emails asking me to write a tutorial, I decided to do that. In this tutorial I will show you how to create a nice light painiting effect for texts and logos. You will be able to design nice wallpapers and images using this technique and even different light effects. Also, celebrating the Olympic Games we will use its logo for the example.

 Book Suggestion: New Skateboard Graphics
Inspiration is everywhere, I believe everyone knows that but each one of us has some preferences or things that inspire more than others, in my case it's skateboard graphics. That's why the book suggestion of this week is about Skateboard Graphics. It's called New Skateboard Graphics. If you remember we ran a giveaway of this book 3 years ago, but I was checking it out again and had to add to our book suggestion list.
