			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I have a set of free Photoshop brushes for you to download and enjoy. This is Masking Tape, it is a set of 18 brushes that are very high resolution all of them close to 2500 pixels.</p>
<p>I was looking around for a set of masking tape brushes for a recent project and all I could really find was clear tape brushes. So I made my own and I thought that some of you would also find them handy.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Wow it has been awhile since the last freebie. Here are some more layer styles in the &#8220;Clean Series&#8221;. This is the first set of two.</p>
<p>These are designed to help speed up the design process. Clean Brown 1 features 18 layer styles that look great on both light and dark backgrounds.</p>
<div id="attachment_202" class="wp-caption alignnone" style="width: 387px"><img class="size-full wp-image-202" title="clean-brown-1" src="http://www.brianpettydesign.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/02/clean-brown-1.jpg" alt="Clean Brown 1 Photoshop Layer styles" width="377" height="360" /><p class="wp-caption-text">Clean Brown 1 Photoshop Layer styles</p></div>
<p>This time I have also included a Photoshop Swatch file for you in this download that includes all the colors that were used to create the layer styles.</p>
Note: There is a file embedded within this post, please visit this post to download the file.
<p>These layer styles are perfect for navigation buttons for the web as well as many other uses. You are free to use these in commerical or personal projects. However you may NOT sell, claim as your own, redistrubute from your own website, email these files to your friends. Just send them the link to this page and have them download the files themselves.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I try to keep this blog for professional topics like design and marketing&#8230;However today is the start of baseball season. Ever since I was little this has been like a holiday to me. Opening Day means several things to me. First of all, as many of you know, I can&#8217;t stand cold weather. So to me this starts the unofficial start to warmer weather. Second of all, It&#8217;s baseball! I can&#8217;t tell you the hours of my life spent in front of the television living and dying with my team.</p>
<p>So tomorrow back to business&#8230;Today is baseball season!</p>
