Graphics Designer Collection (2010/ENG)

1. PHOTOSHOP TUTORiALS:
Ever wish you had Photoshop skills? Well.. i do. How did i learn? I did tons and tons of 'Signature Tutorials'. I kept doing them. Not many people are aware of the sophistication those little 'Sigs'
require and take to make. They are jam-packed with unknown, useful, exotic techniques, tips, and a well oiled work flow.

What's great about these tutorials is they are picture illustrated. Authors take the time to show you step-by-step with 'Before' and 'After' screenshots. These are great for beginners or enthusiasts who are looking to sharpen their skills.

3. SUiTCASE FUSiON 3 (Font Manager):
You never want to install fonts directly onto your system. It will affect Photoshop, Illustrator, and the overall performance of your computer. This is why i use Suitcase among many other reasons !

Quick Highlights:
- Easy to install fonts: just locate the directory and Suitcase will search each folder/file, nstall fonts, while ignoring non-font files.
- Font Doctor: this will help repair corrupted fonts
- Preview: you can see what the fonts look like.
- Auto-Activation: Suitcase will automatically activate fonts that are needed by your system.
- Performance: this will greatly avoid performance problems for your
PC.
- Online Font Store: you can buy/rent fonts from the online store.
NOTE: I include activation instructions and the tools required.

4. DESiGN ELEMENTS:
I handpicked a variety of design material/elements that i think is vital to get started and enough to last. It's a mixture of the best elements. These are items i personally use and find useful.

NOTE: No duplicates! Unlike other people who do this to increase the size of their pack. It's a pet-peeve of mine. I have downloaded 2GB Design Packs, and half of it are duplicates that the uploader hides in Sub-Directories and renames them so people don't know. Shame on those people!
The most frequent offender i have come across is: 'GADVAD' ! Stay away from his uploads.. he is a shameless "Collector's Account" whore, constantly trying to rip people off !

5. PHOTOSHOP PLUGiNS:
Plugins are vital for Graphics Designers. Plugins save designers tons of time. Essentially plugins are shortcuts that do a variety of Effects, Designs, and Enhancements that usually would take hours.
These are also handpicked from my collection that i use frequently. Many people instal plugins just to install them. But too many plugins will cause Photoshop poor performance. I am very selective.
