Styling Drop Down Menus with Dreamweaver CS4
She’s at it again- Janine Warner’s taking us on a tour of the Dreamweaver drop down menu. She really is great at giving you the whole picture on things, so it’s nice to see her talking about the styling of the drop down menu here. Make sure you check it out:

“Adobe Dreamweaver CS3 and CS4 include the Spry framework, a set of widgets you can use to create drop-down menus and other advanced features. The Spry menus make adding a drop-down menu in Dreamweaver easy, but editing the styles that control the color, size, and other attributes of a menu can get complicated. This tutorial shows you how to customize a drop-down menu.”

Making an Intro with Moose – On Layers TV
So if you haven’t noticed as of yet, Moose Peterson’s turning into a regular video production powerhouse. Recently he added videos about camera equipment to is blog, and they are worth a watch. Head over to his website and click on either the Moose Cam or MP video categories on the right.

Moose had a very specific idea for his show intro and I thought it would be a good idea to give After Effects a whirl to see if we could get it done quickly. It was so quick, it turned into my tutorial for this week’s Layers TV. Corey’s talking about how to take color for images and turn them into swatches.. definitely a must watch!.
