One of the most popular tutorials I have writen is the Sparkling Hot Girl in Photoshop. It was a very straightforward technique on how to create some nice light effects mixed with a hot girl. Everything over a dark background. Since then I have received emails asking me how to create light effects over white or light backgrounds. So I decided to try some ideas and create an image mixing a photo of a girl with some light effects.
The wallpaper of this week is an image created by Sabine Ten Lohuis, a freelancer designer and illustrator currently based inRotterdam, Netherlands. She graduated from the visual arts academy Willem de Kooning in 2009 with a degree in illustration and a minor in painting. But she also has a great interest for animation and graphic design.

The holiday season is here and it’s time to get together with our family and friends, celebrate and get ready for the new year that is about to start. As we see sites with gift guides all over the web we decided to post the Abduzeedo 2011 Gift Guide because it’s always nice to start a new year extremely motivated. So in this first post I will list some books.
