I’ve got some great news for you today, right before the weekend starts. As you already know, this Sunday we’ll be celebrating Mother’s Day and we wanted to somehow make it even more special for you. So, through our sister website Designious, we’re launching a 30% discount on all the products.
As a digital artist or designer, receiving feedback or ensuring visibility for your work is crucial. Setting up your own online portfolio is an option, but then there’s the problem of driving traffic to it. So before you get there, you can showcase your work alongside fellow designers on websites created especially with this purpose.
Our sister website Design TNT is back with another collection of brand-new design resources created to save you both time and money. Among these 8 awesome resources you will find a set of 38 vintage borders for Photoshop, vector advertising coupons, a set of vector superheroes, Mother’s Day vector elements, a set of Photoshop photo frames, Photoshop Brushes and more!
If you’re thinking about going freelance, there are a lot of things to consider beside the joy of becoming your own boss. There’s a reason why people at the top of successful businesses get paid as much as they do, and that is responsibility. If you take the time to plan carefully and put into place some of the best practices right from the start, going freelance can be great. Follow these tips and you’ll never have to be up for a nine o’clock meeting again, unless of course, you want to.
While writing last week’s post about spring vector illustrations, I realized that I haven’t talked to you about talented digital artists in a long time. So I looked up Eliane Horie, also known as Libz – a freelance illustrator, concept and visual development artist and animator that I bookmarked a while ago. She is 23, currently living in Brasil, does illustration, animation, VFX and editing and is very passionate about her work.
The hardworking little blob Inky – mascot of our sister website Inky Deals – has put together another one of his famous bundles for you. The biggest one yet! It’s called Inky’s Ultimate Spring Bundle and it contains $2,521 worth of premium design resources at the small price of $59.
Spring is finally here. The sun is warm, the birds are chirping, a gentle wind is blowing through the new green leaves and creativity is in the air. So I thought I’d provide some design inspiration in the form of brightly colored vector illustrations. I also threw some resources in the mix, to help you put your projects together in style and a surprise at the end of the post!
Our friends from Company Folders have launched 3 awesome folder PSD mock-ups that I just had to share with you. They’re the ultimate folder boutique with the largest selection. Each of their hundred plus folders is fully customizable with a variety of stocks, coatings, foils, imprint methods and more. To get an idea of what you can get on their site, download these free PSD mock-ups and take them for a spin.
It’s time to see all the Illustrator and Photoshop wonders that have been created (and taught) this past month. You can always update your design skills, pick up a new trick or two or even end up buying a vector pack or vector illustration along the way. The beauty of design is – in my opinion – that there’s always room to grow. So let’s join hands and grow together by taking a look at the most interesting and popular design tutorials from February 2013.
In Romania, we’re celebrating a unique holiday called Mărţişor today. It celebrates the first day of spring and it’s customary for boys to offer girls flowers and broaches especially created for this occasion – each containing a small red and white bow. Why did I explain all of that to you? Because today in particular, everybody is posting on social media and blogs about this. And I thought it would be interesting to see what usually goes on in a day on the Internet.
