Chicago, IL - May 20, 2010 -
InDesignSecrets, producers of the popular InDesignSecrets Live! Conference and
Seminar series, today announces immediate availability of two new InDesign
eBooks. The InDesignSecrets Guide to
Graphic Effects, by Mike Rankin; and InDesignSecrets Top
40 Tips, an
edited collection of the most popular and useful blog posts on the
InDesignSecrets website, are available for purchase at: http://www.indesignsecrets.com/ebooks.
Anne-Marie Concepcion,
co-founder of InDesignSecrets, says, "We are thrilled to offer our newest,
must-have eBooks! These particular eBooks are unique in that they are comprised
of the best-kept secrets and are truly a wonderful guide and reference for
InDesign users of all levels. Many people would pay dearly to receive the
insider tips found in these affordable publications." The InDesignSecrets Guide to Graphic Effects ($9.95) This
new eBook was created as a result of overwhelmingly positive feedback for
InDesign expert Mike Rankin's Eye Candy series of posts on the InDesignSecrets site. The series features tips about
useful and fun graphic effects - such as stickers, holes, drips, and "shiny
things" - using only InDesign tools and techniques.
In
the 150-page PDF eBook, Rankin reprises and refines techniques from the Eye Candy series; and adds new,
never-before-published effects such as interlocking objects, creating chrome,
putting text inside text, wood carvings, and special effect photo frames, like
Polaroid and matte.
A free sample chapter from the eBook is available for viewing
at: http://indesignsecrets.com/downloads/IDS_GraphicFX_SampleChapter.pdf. This six-page PDF educates
users on how to create crisply-folded banners and ribbon curl artwork
using basic InDesign tools like gradients and groups.
InDesignSecrets Top 40 Tips ($9.95) InDesignSecrets Top 40 Tips is a
collaboration of the entire InDesignSecrets veteran team, and was produced by site
contributor James Fritz. The 104-page eBook is a combination of the team's 40 top
blog posts, written by members of the team or contributing editors. The
posts included in this eBook were identified as the most useful in helping
users navigate the InDesign program, including one of the most-accessed blog
posts, "Rebuilding InDesign's Preferences". Included posts were updated with
new screen shots, and many of the most useful reader comments are included in
sidebars. Each tip includes a link to the original blog for easy access to all
original comments.

Graphic Effects ($9.95) or InDesignSecrets
