    This is great, it’s just what I was looking for. I’m always hoping to find great blogs and resources from others in the design field.

    I have an art/design blog on which I often release freebies, etc., too. The latest post is: http://www.annstorer.com/2008/12/28/flourish-freebie-ornaments/

  • cougar Reply

    I’m a graphic design student at South Dakota State, and I’ve been assigned to create a book cover using only two spot colors. I would like to use a real photo and convert it to a black spot color, and use a bright, light teal, or just another color on top of that but i have no idea how to do that in photoshop or if it even can be done…any help would be AWESOME….(also if you know how to use two spot colors and blending them to create a variety of colors with just the two spot colors that’d be amazing as well) THANKS

  • Steve Constable Reply

    I like the guide to designing with black. If you first master black and simultaneous contrast you can move on to color with a stronger creative toolbox to use. :)

    Hey Jacob! Thanks so much for writing some good articles. I read your blog on a constant basis and always walk away with something useful. I wanted to share my blog where I post free high resolution photographs: http://free-images-etc.rb-d.com/. As a graphic designer, I find it extremely useful to have access to some quality photos when I work on projects, and I hope other creatives will get a kick of this site as well. Enjoy!
