Batman is one of everyone’s favorite super heroes from comic books, cartoons, and the big screen. Just as his custom, Batmobile, and villains have changed over the course of various remakes, so has his logo. As designers, we always stress the importance of a recognizable brand and logo. It is interesting that as you watch the video of the transforming Batman logo, you realize that the entire time you are been able to identify it.

This site provides short tutorials to learn graphic or web design skills. This is a great resource for not only the newcomer who is learning the ins-and-outs of the robust Adobe product lines, but also for anyone looking to touch up on how to use these products if you have been away from them for a long time.

The tutorials are very short, anywhere from 5-20 mins. They also range in terms of experience. Some are very introductory level, while others provide an advanced knowledge of graphic design. It is strongly recommended that you follow along by mimicking the tutorial (dual monitors works best.) This will help you to get more hands on with product and increase your skills.

Your graphic and web design skills will be improved in no time, and oh, did I mention that all the tutorials are FREE!
