Win 5 copies of Keynotopia UI Templates

This week, we are giving away 5 copies of Keynotopia’s Super Bundle ($149 value), which contains over 7,000 user interface components (wireframe and high fidelity) and hundreds of royalty free icons for both Keynote and PowerPoint.

Thousands of designers are already using Keynotopia templates to create winning client proposals, deliver killer product demos, and finish projects on time and on budget, now you can be one too!

Recently a design agency landed a multimillion dollar contract with a demo that they created using Keynotopia in less than 1 hour. Pretty cool, uh?

In addition to what’s currently included in the bundle, you will receive all future updates and new templates for free. Read on for more information on how to get your hands on one of these!

So what is Keynotopia?

Keynotopia is the largest collection of wireframe and pixel-perfect vector UI components for mocking-up and designing apps using Apple Keynote or Microsoft PowerPoint. All components are designed from scratch in Keynote and PowerPoint, and are fully editable and customizable without needing any design tools.

To create an app prototype, simply copy and paste UI components from a Keynotopia template onto your slides to create interface screens. Then add hyperlinks to make the interface clickable, and export it as an interactive PDF and test it on your favorite device without writing any code.  You can also export the prototype screens as PNGs for final production in Photoshop/Fireworks, or paste them directly into your favorite design tool.

Book Suggestion Illusive 2: Contemporary Illustration and Its Context

The book suggestion of this week is Illusive 2: Contemporary Illustration and Its Context. This book is really inspiring, there were some amazing illustrations and you can spend ours checking them out. Another amazing thing about this book is that you can always go back and there will always be something new.

In Illusive we identified the main trends in contemporary illustration and introduced many young illustrators. Since then, the demand for illustration has continued to grow – and with it the range of application and the forms of expression in this medium. This positive development is confirmed by the exciting work of international illustrators that we have seen since publishing Illusive; it was thus a logical step to present the best of these new works in Illusive 2.

Illusive 2 is a survey of current illustration from around the world; unlike other titles on this subject, all of the work was selected for inclusion based solely on its artistic merit. The book reveals a trend toward Neo-Realism that is demonstrated by the willingness of today’s magazines to use illustration in almost the same way as photography. In general, the illustrations featured in Illusive 2 have become more differentiated and complex – the spontaneous-looking scribbles of years past have given way to elaborate, multi-layered collages. The variety of styles and new design approaches is impressive.
