Adrian, our Audiotuts+ legend, is our only locally based Tuts+ editor – though I use the word ‘local’ loosely, since Adrian lives in a much sunnier and more tropical part of Australia than we do! He’s a writer and musician with a passion for everything open source. Adrian also has six kids, one of which works for Envato – though he refuses to let us say who ;)

About the Book

“A no-holds-barred manual for being a graphic designer . . . a refreshing take on the populated design book genre, sure to help even the most seasoned professional.” –Step Inside Design, November/December 2005

“A sort of career manual guide for young graphic designers who want to earn a living by doing expressive and meaningful work but want to avoid becoming a hired drone working on soulless projects.” –Lurzers International Archive, December 2005/January 2006

“More than seduction by color. The text easily appeals to all of lifes types who might crack its binding: the student crowd who have spent four years learning how to learn; those weighing the decision to go in-house or freelance; the seasoned designer who wants to set up his or her own studio… “ — Lisa Ryers –San Francisco Bay Guardian, January, 2006
