Best of the Web #50
Dec 28, 2009 Best of the Web
Good morning everyone, I hope your holiday season is going well and that you’re all looking forward to ringing in a new year of opportunities and challenges. It’s Monday, and it’s also a special day since PresidiaCreative has reached its 50th edition of Best of the Web.
As usual, this post contains the best posts from the previous week in the design web. There were a ton of photography roundups, from waterscapes to fireworks, random collections and some masterfully timed photographs. There were also some cool roundups of CG art, one by Paul from ForCG.com, and the other by myself for CreativeFan.com.
Hope you have a great start the week!

Today, we have 20 tutorials that will get you started with Adobe Fireworks and will help you to create professional effects. So if you have thought about trying out Fireworks but didn’t know where to start, check out these tutorials.

Web Picks #14
Mar 2, 2009 Best of the Web
This past week wasn’t all that impressive in the design world, to be honest. It seems like some of the big design blogs might be slowing, and many of the smaller design blogs who occasionally make big contributions haven’t been as active lately. Regardless, PresidiaCreative is still blogging regularly, so let’s get to it.
It’s time for Web Picks #13, a collection of the best of the web tutorials, inspiration and resources from the previous week. This week features a great new tutorial by Constantin Potorac on PSDTUTS, a very high-end layout tutorial from PSDFAN, and some great roundups.
Don’t miss out on future content, as there are several big posts that you will want to see (one coming tomorrow, hint hint). Hope you all have a great start to your week!

Mobile Phone Ads – Tutorials and Inspiration
Dec 18, 2008 Photoshop
Ever since the advent of mobile phones, a different advertising style has emerged to accompany them. Because of the smaller size of mobile phones, it is possible to do significant artwork to accompany the phone. The screen also adds an additional area for a design.
Today, we’re going to look at the best tutorials out there for creating a mobile phone from scratch, and then adding other effects to help make it into a product advertisement.
Lastly, we’re going to feature some eye-catching inspiration to help give you something to aim for. Hopefully you enjoy it, and if you have anything you want to see, leave a comment and let us know.
