BittBox Brushes Spotted in New Amsterdam Opening Credits on FOX

New Amsterdam is a new show on FOX, and I was watching it the other day and noticed that they used some of my Photoshop brushes during the opening credits. I was doubtful at first, but I did a little investigating, and sure enough, they are my brushes. I thought it was pretty cool to see, of all things, one of my Photoshop brushes on TV. The brushes they used are my High-Res Floral set, I released last summer. More after the jump.

Hurry! Help Send David Bracetty to FOWA

Nick La, over at WebDesignerWall recently contacted me with a cool story. A college student by the name of David Bracetty is selling ad spaces on a t-shirt in order to raise funds to go to FOWA (Future of Web Apps) in Miami, Florida. He will be wearing the t-shirt both days in an effort to pay for his trip. I recently purchased a couple spaces for BittBox, but time is running thin. His funds need to be raised by Feb 20th in order to get the shirt printed in time, so I decided to post about to try and help him out. If you have a website, and you can spare a cool $20, please visit David’s Website. I hope we can get you to FOWA David!!! (I remember how broke I was in college, and this is a great cause)

BittBox Brushes in the Wild

On a somewhat regular basis, I get asked to contribute my brush sets to design magazines (mainly in the UK). Here are some BittBox brushes that you can find out there in the wild:

  • Advanced Photoshop #38
  • Photoshop Creative #27
  • Computer Arts Projects #106

(I can’t seem to find a copy of CAP 106, so if anyone has seen it around in the US, please let me know.)
