Time to do a nice roundup of the tutorials here on PSD Vault! If you have been a good old friend of the site, you might still remember some of those tutorials. However, if you are new here, this post would come in handy when you try to dig up something extra on PSD Vault.

I would also like to announce that PSD Files for each tutorial from PSD Vault are available for just $2 per file, via Paypal, and the Freebie Section will be up very soon.

Some forewords …

It has been a big four months since I launched the site back in Mid November, 2008. The site has grown from 10,000 pageview per month to 10,000 pageview per day on average. Despite the traffic increase, the focus of PSD Vault remains the same: To provide quality Photoshop Tutorial, Resource and inspiration to all levels of designers.

No doubt there is still plenty of room for improvement here and I receive a lot of feedbacks for the tutorial/site design through comments/emails. I will certainly try my best and I thank you for all the constructive comments/feedbacks you have made.

Last but not the least, I would like to say a big THANK YOU to the wonderful site sponsors – thank you so much for the support!!

Ok enough talk, here is 10 tutorials I chose for this roundup, enjoy!

$2 PSD File Download

I would also like to announce that PSD Files for each tutorial from PSD Vault are available for just $2 per file, via Paypal. You should now see a big red $2 button on the right sidebar, click on it and you will be re-directed to Paypal payment page.

Just one thing to remember:

When you buy the PSD files, please specify the name of the tutorial in “Add special instructions to the seller” in the Paypal payment page, so I know which file you’re after.

I will send the PSD File to your Paypal Email within 24 hours once payment is received.  You can Contact Me if you have any further question.

In the future I will make this system fully automated so you will get the download link straight away. Monthly membership here on PSD Vault is also on its way, so please watch out :)

Freebies, Freebies, Freebies

Yes, I will have a freebies section setup very soon, where you can download stock photos and texture for your own design purpose. There will be no restriction for those images and you can use them whenever, wherever, for whatever.

Hope you enjoy this post and those roundups and have a great day!
