I came across Abduzeedo while searching for ways to get inspired. And was I ever. I have to say that I have kept up with several of the Tutorial that just blew me away. One of them being the Old to Young Case study. This one seemed pretty advanced and I was up for the challenge. Mind you, I have seen more of the other tutorials that have blown my mind. Have to say that The Old to Young tutorial is a favorite, my rendition can be found here http://on.fb.me/qIMbqV
Id love to get this book, whether I win it or buy it. We all like to win things right!
Thanks Fabio for the great inspiration to us designers!
Abduzeedo inspired me in many ways from getting me into using photoshop, illustrator etc. and also explore my imaginations more widely, Abduzeedo inspired me with colors, shapes and many more which helped me to try my own way of creating a work. Though I’m still quite new to Adobe with photoshop and so on it’s thanks to Abduzeedo with their tutorials that greatly helped me in understanding how to use the software. Thank you alot
Its just I wish i was better at photoshop, illustrator etc so that one day i can create such awesome works shown on Abduzeedo.
Abduzeedo changed my perspective on design related inspirations. Their tutorials and references made it easier for students like me to create an output of our imagination. Thank you for making Abduzeedo. Keep on being a tool of inspiration.
I find it funny that most articles get roughly, on average two pages of comments.
Now, give something away for free – and all the scum come out the woodwork in an attempt to get something for nothing.
You should pick FIVE random people who have to PAY for the book!
Lets see how many comments you get then.
Slackers.
I’m still working on my inspiration and honing in on what I do best. This book would be a great guide.
….then just visit Abduzeedo’s blog
Problem solved Toni
Love Abduzeedo! Have been following him and the TutsNetwork for sometime not only for great tips and tricks but for constant design inspiration. I aspire to be as talented as Abduzeedo!
I want to thank abduzeedo for the creative inspirations, I am a rookie in terms of still not that skilled at Photoshop, and sometimes its difficult to find the next interesting thing to do. For me personally it has always been, if I see something which I find interesting, I have to find out how to do it. Abduzeedo has given me exactly this thirst for knowledge, by giving me things that have blown my mind away.
I enjoy some of his tutorials a lot, like the recent Captain America and also the older “Light Painted Men” one.
For my final examen, as a photographer and picture manipulator. I came across and inspirational on abduzeedo which inspired me so much that i wanted to do someting lige that for my self. I did it, the tacher and sensor loved it and got top grades…
so in a way abduzeedo helped me pass my finals in the best possible way…

(i’m sorry if I did this post twice)
abduzeedo had gave a lot of things to learn, especially about photoshop and illustrator. it inspire me a lot to create an outstanding design.
the tutorial there was easy to follow, and always give me something new.
Abduzeedo was ,is and will be a “river of inspiration ” . there are no words to describe how how Abduzeedo inspired me… it sure convinced me that we live in a world where art has no limits and imagination is one step away from “reality” …
sorry for my bad english
I love Abduzeedo!!! I find great tricks and tutorial. And is a great desing inspiration. I would like to be like him.
My daily inspiration!
Abduzeedo has been one of my top sites for inspiration and tutorials (other than the Tuts Network of course) for years now. Their iPhone app is very useful for inspiration on the go as well! Their tutorials are easy to follow and inspiration is always top-notch.
I’ve had Abdu in my Reader since 2007 and it’s really been a formative tool to me as a designer. Countless tutorials and daily inspirations have molded most of us, myself included, so I think I speak for everyone in saying “Thank you, Fabio and the rest of the team!”. \m/
Well, you see, Abduzeedo has been on my laptop screen since i found the website (like a year ago), it has been inspiring me since then, I love the website and believe that I’ll still use it in future proyects.
.
That’s one of the websites that says “go on!, being a graphic designer would be awesome!”.
So thank you Abduzeedo, for being there every time
Abduzeedo inspired me to look around with a new set of eyes, (maybe i just found my fourth and fifth eye) to see and imagine the world with colours and shapes i could never think about.
Hello .
I
I like logos and Web Design … Abduzeedo I find a lot of logos sorted by specific categories.
Abduzeedo inspired me when I started with Photoshop, like 5 years ago. At that time, I was 11 years old.
Back then I mainly used abduzeedo for those ‘ surrealistic cool photoshop effects’ like glowing lines or glowing smoke, etcetera. Those tutorials really helped me out, because for me it was really cool to create those effects when I was younger.
In the present I still use Abduzeedo, but different. Now I mainly use Abduzeedo for inspiration. Both webdesign inspiration and print inspiration.
Thanks abduzeedo for helping me out the last 5 years!
Im practically a new reader, and I’m so excited for the things I allready learn thanks to abduzeedo.
And I’m happy to learn everyday a new thing that abduzeedo post.
The tuts are easier to learn and very very useful.
I can’t thank enough to the abduzeedo team for posting all these tutorials, share is the very first thing of what Internet is about, and that’s what abduzeedo do, share to the comunity the knowledge and helping others (including me) getting better skills.
Thanks abduzeedo! keep the good work and sharing!
i find pretty much everything inspiring at abduzeedo. I just love the tutorials!
I discovered Abuzeedo accidentally when I was searching for a way to improve my personal logo design. I enjoy looking through the designs through the entire site whenever I hit a roadblock.
Between PSDtuts and Abduzeedo, I found far more techniques that would help me progress in my design career than I ever did in my college courses. He seems to be able to take many popular current effects and create fantastic tutorials for them for the average user to learn how to recreate. Fantastic sites
I went to a college that focused heavily on concept design rather than the immense technical aspects related with production art. Abduzeedo and PSDtuts really helped me become a well rounded designer that can attract the attention of small design agencies (the best to work for in my opinion). They also helped speed up my production speed and production methods. They are a huge help and I can only hope that I can innovate in a way that Abduzeedo has. I now have the confidence to be far more ambitious and creative with my concept production.
Abduzeedo I used them when I have to design for the latest techniques and practices they put on their website.
Big fan of Daily Inspiration. It reminds me of all the talent that’s out there… some very creative people. I’d love to have this book as a resource, probably should get it even if I don’t win a copy.
