Illustrator: Load Brush Libraries Faster [CS3]

Posted on May 12th, 2008 by BittBox

This is a very quick Illustrator CS3 tip that will hopefully save you some time in the long run. I’m sure a lot of you, if not all of you, know how to load a Brush Library. There are 3 ways, actually, but my favorite, and quickest way is the Brush Library icon.

Mac/Adobe Developer Wanted:

Posted on May 8th, 2008 by BittBox

Hi everyone. I’m currently seeking a Mac Developer/Programmer that also has experience with Adobe development (specifically, Photoshop) for a very cool project I have in the works. As many of you might know, BittBox is a place for designers to come for freebies, tutorials, and recently, fonts. My ambition isn’t stopping there. I would very much like to develop some software that I’ve wanted/needed forever, and no one seems to be answering the call. So…I’m taking things into my own hands, and trying to stir things up and get something started. Details after the jump…

Workflow: Preview EPS Files in Finder and QuickLook

Posted on May 7th, 2008 by BittBox

Some of you may have noticed that Leopard’s finder doesn’t really like EPS files. Its a huge inconvenience to have to open a file just to see what’s in it, and if you’re at all like me, you have a hard drive full of downloads that need to be browsed once in a while. Never fear, EPSQuickLookPlugin is here to help. It’s a (freeware) plugin for QuickLook, that allows you to view the contents of an EPS file (in Finder and QuickLook) without opening an application. Now that’s gonna save me about 500 hours per year, I’d guestimate.

Compfight Adds “Commercial” Search Filter

Posted on May 5th, 2008 by BittBox

Compfight, the very handy Flickr search tool I posted about previously, has just added a new Creative Commons “Commercial” filter to their search. Previously, you had the option to turn the Creative Commons filter On or Off. Now you can search ‘all’ Creative Commons licensed images, or images for ‘commercial’ use. Compfight is not only a fast way to find flickr images, but with this new feature, no more scrolling to the bottom to see that Non-Commercial icon. Talk about a time saver, thanks Compfight :)
