Layers magazine has launched their second online design contest. This is a great opportunity to sharpen those design skills and get your name out there. Just go to this link and download the contest image. Then simply use any of the Adobe apps to create a design or animation based on this graphic. This is great chance to flex those creative muscles and have a little fun. The prize is a $300 shopping spree at the Kelby Training site. Very cool stuff. So don’t wait, go download the image and get started.

Use Photoshop’s new 3D tools to create some dazzling background effects.
When I’m done working with an image, I like to sit and admire it (hey, I spent six hours working on it, I should). To do that, I hit the Tab key, then hit the F key three times. This hides all of the panels and toolbars and lets you see the image by itself surrounded by black. To get back to regular mode, press the F key and the Tab key one more time.

I just wanted to tell you that i used your coin tutorial for a project at work and it worked great! I made it a gold coin and my boss loved it. Also, I entered the design contest, boy I hope I win. I created the mayan temple like background from 10 different photos. I even designed a mock layers magazine cover to make it look authentic. Also, I know you’re buddies with RC Concepcion, and I won a layers contest for his DVD on Photoshop & Dreamweaver Integration and it’s just great! I learned alot of useful stuff for when I build clients’ websites.One of these days I hope to be able to join Kelbytraining.com so i can take everyone else’s courses. You’ve got some really cool tutorials. One I’d really like to see though is if you go to Scott’s blog, he has this really nice smooth looking 3d stacked type. I would like to see a tutorial on how to do that. I figure he did it in illustrator’s 3d and then threw it into photoshop to smooth it out, otherwise I dunno. I tried but it didn’t look right. Oh well, keep up the good work Corey!
