A Little Inspiration…
If you’re a designer, illustrator, or even a photographer you may find yourself in a creative rut at some point. Trust me this does happen. I always find it a good idea to go a spend an hour or two at the bookstore. It’s an amazing source for inspiration, especially the news stands. With hundreds of magazines on virtually every subject, there is always a spark of something creative in there. It’s really interesting to see what other designers are doing and it helps to keep up on current design trends, which is always a good idea. The key here is this: In order to produce something you need the ingredients. Fill your creative mind with the right ingredients and it will all come together.

Imageready’s Supercharged Eyedropper
In previous versions of Photoshop, you could only use the Eyedropper tool to sample a color from other open images in Photoshop, but for some reason, ImageReady had a supercharged Eyedropper. If you clicked the mouse button within your image and held it down, you could leave your image window and sample colors from, well… just about anything—including your computer desktop or any other open application. Freaky! Fortunately, Adobe finally added this same power to Photoshop’s Eyedropper tool.
