HUGE Adobe Shortcuts charts in infographic
Well, if you use a lot of shortcuts, this will amaze you. Most of the time people hone their activities down to less than a dozen movements. And, if you use an action less than once a week, then you don’t need the shortcut. But this is a HUGE piece of work.

Tobias Saul lettering, typography, illustration excellence
Most people have no idea how difficult this kind of lettering is. Not only do you start with talent, it takes a strong sense of balance and contrast. Further, it takes a thorough knowledge of typography and the actual letterforms themselves. A good designer can instantly recognize the difference between a superb lettering artist and an amateur. Tobias is, of course, the former!
Tobias Saul is a 24 year old hand lettering artist. For his unique letterings he combines traditional craftsmanship with digital techniques. Check out his portfolio and do check the Google link See Tobias’ site : www.tobiassaul.de Here’s a collection of his works via Google
A great logo Hewlett-Packard isn’t using?
It came across my desk that Hewlett-Packard is launching some new products and has this awesome logo. HP says it’ll be using this logo solely on its premium laptops. Kirk McElhearn writes :
I can see why designers may like this logo, but if I didn’t know it was HP, and saw it in the wild, I wouldn’t know what it’s supposed to be. I wonder about the logic of using a logo that is so unrecognizable.
