Adobe InDesign CS2 Tip—Find a Whole New World of Precision in Find/Change

After six months of writing Tips of the Day for InDesign, I uncovered another feature that I can’t do without. The Find/Change feature (Edit>Find/Change), which you can find in virtually all layout and word processing applications, is taken to a new level in InDesign. Hidden under the More Options button is a whole new world of precision editing that allows you to include type formatting and Styles in your Find and Change specifications. But my favorite part is that you can perform your Find/Change editing on all open documents at one time—a great way to ensure consistency in an ad campaign or a series of brochures.

Graphic Design Inspiration For The Designer In You. PT1

In the past 10 years in the Graphic Design Field I have had the pleasure in meeting many different types of Designers. Some have continued with success and others have given up and decided that taking orders at Rent-A-Center was their goal in life.

After many years in college they’ve decided that this profession is too hard for them. Too much involved for them! Life is better working 2 jobs and taking crap from people who constantly say “The Customer is always right” is okay for them.
Well my friend(s), if your thinking on quitting after many years of studying in this field and want a regular 9-5 then this article is not for you. [click here to leave]

Gaming is becoming a consumer nightmare.

Recently I was looking at the new Madden 07 for Xbox 360. Well I was quickly informed that I would probably not want to mess with it… and here is the reason why.

EA’s new Privacy Policy anonymously creates an online account to track you, but oh it gets better… with your “anonymous” account you also give up your ip address which can simply be linked to a database of information, that would have search history, purchases and even credit card information. In a nutshell it basically comes down to how important is the game and is it worth your privacy?

I strongly suggest you take the time to write the FTC or at the very least boycott EA until they fix this bull. You can read the complete Slashdot story here.
