Had a lil fun at the end of my day today working through some tutorials on the tutsplus.com network, and decided to clean up my virtual desktop as countless hours of projects with no filing had caught up with me… nice to have a change. This site rocks most of the time for graphic design tutorials with an emphasis on quality and depth… I learn a lot whenever I dip in (and without tooting my own horn, I am in Photoshop and Illustrator more than I sleep on a daily basis).
