Editor's Corner: Proud Papa -- er, Mama

A few days ago, we rolled out another issue of InDesign Magazine, with a cover story on nine simple yet effective ways to use color in your print projects. There are 10 more excellent articles in the issue, on everything from transparency to type. There's even an interactive puzzle with a prize worth $150.



I'm pretty proud of the magazine, so I would love to share it with those of you who are InDesign users. You can't go wrong, especially with this Creativeprose-only discount: the current issue, all 24 previous issues, and the magazine for the next two years -- all for $54. Just go to www.indesignmag.com/purchase.php, choose the 2-year option from the Selected Item menu, and enter the promotional code "CP0819".
