Hey, it’s time once more for me to pass along a list of resources I’ve noticed recently that I think you should see.
- You need to move artwork from InDesign to Illustrator, or Photoshop to InDesign, or… you need to read this article by Sandee!
- It’s fun to see how people design things. Here’s a tutorial on designing a book cover, especially in picking colors for type on a busy background.

- Want a little tablet-publishing inspiration? Check out the DPS Showcase Gallery (and if you have some great work of your own, submit it!)
- Check out this new offering from stockindesign: Flyermania. Create Unlimited Flyers for free in Adobe InDesign.
