		<description><![CDATA[When working with an outer space theme, the possibilities are endless -- there are plenty of elements you can incorporate and photo manipulate into your composition. With the popularity and abundance of science fiction movies and books, there's no shortage of inspiration either. In this Photoshop tutorial, we're going to take some different space elements, as well as some earthly landscape elements, and put them all together to create a faded, vintage-like poster.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Postcards from the past have an idealistic view of vacation spots they are trying to promote that you can't seem to find anymore nowadays; perhaps because we no longer send post cards, but rather rely on email. In this graphic design tutorial, we are going to take a popular retro style of having text with different images within each letter and recreate it. We will use Illustrator and Photoshop in concert to come up with an awesome retro postcard.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[In this Photoshop tutorial, you are going to learn how to create some 3D text using only Photoshop. The mood we will strive to incorporate in our piece is dark and grungy. We are going to use consistent lighting, layer styles to create shadows for our type, Photoshop filters, and more. We will finish off our scene by adding a dark textured background that seems to fade out as it approaches the edge of the canvas -- a popular design technique.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[It isn't always necessary to use a 3D program to create 3D text — they're expensive and overkill if you just occasionally use 3D elements. Adobe Illustrator is more than adequate in allowing us to create some 3D objects with some basic shading for our text. In this tutorial, we are going to learn how to make some 3D text using Adobe Illustrator, and also discuss techniques of shading the text to give it a clean, consistent, and stylized look.]]></description>
