We all love typography and especially the vintage/retro ones. There's something on those artworks that catch our eyes and makes us really crazy about them. Despite the fact that some are quite old and done with rudimentary process the quality of the design is amazing and that's why books are the best way to get inspired by those and especially trying to learn how to do that using modern tools like Illustrator and Photoshop.
The wallpaper of this week is an image I created a few weeks ago while playing in Photoshop trying to create some fluffy icon style clouds. The result was quite nice and I ended up writing a tutorial showing how to do the same.
If you want to learn how to create this design check out the Fluffy Clouds in Photoshop tutorial.

The book of this week is Poke the Box. Written by Seth Godin, Poke the Box is very inspiring and motivating about initiating and shipping. It makes you think about so many things and makes you want to make things happen.
If you're stuck at the starting line, you don't need more time or permission. You don’t need to wait for a boss’s okay or to be told to push the button; you just need to poke.
