I just finished designing some postcards to promote my design company, Epik Creative. I’m going to get them printed and mail them out, but I thought I would extend the postcard offer of 10% off your first project to readers of my blog. If you know of anyone else who needs graphic or web design and could benefit, please feel free to share!

Love it or hate it, the “Web 2.0″ look is everywhere these days, and if you are in the design or web line of work, you may find yourself wanting to (or having no choice to) create them at some point. I’ve collected a few tutorials that I think are worthwhile and fairly quick and easy on making Web 2.0-style buttons and shapes. I tried to stay away from Illustrator ones that inlcude a lot of transparencies – they gum up your file and can make it a nightmare to work with. So, without further ado:
Quick and easy with a nice result that can easily have other graphics added to the button area.
Another simple Illustrator tutorial, this time for rectangular buttons or shapes.
A similar effect as the above tutorial, but with a slightly different look, and this time for Photoshop.
A slightly more complex tutorial for Photoshop, but with a great result.
A really quick-to-make square button for Photoshop.
Hope these are useful to you!
