Recently we entered a PSDTuts+AETuts = Contest. We made it to the top 20 and voting just came up today; we need your help!

Go to this link and then go down to number 15 (Muah). All you have to do is go down to the bottom of the post, and then select me (Austen Henry #15) and someone else who you think deserves it. The grand prize is the Red Giant Magic Bullet Looks ($400!).

To those who vote, thank you!

Here is our entry:

Hey there! Here is a basic list of what we have done with our website:

1) changed background from cream/blue colored scheme (it was cool for a minute….) to the current one.

2) changed logo from handwritten font to sweet logo (the one on top center).

3) changed the slide show pictures from Welcome, 3D modeling, Editing and FX, and Photography to awesome Welcome, Tutorials, 3D art and Design, and Filmmaking.

4) added new icons and galleries to pages: Adobe Premiere Pro, Gimp, and the new Photoshop tutorials page.

5) the hardest part was the facebook integration into the blog. I have a tutorial coming out with how to do that for WordPress.

6) added comment spam prevention with reCaptcha…what now spammers?!

7) added new widgets to home page and blogs (facebook like box, links, and Welcome widget).

8) made a nicer contact page…go try it!

9) an inturgal part to our video work was to add the lightbox plugin (go try our video links and see what I mean!).

10) changed the font of the navigation menu.

11) I changed the icon (look on your tab…the little picture next to the “Website V5!”.

12) the youtube thumbnails (as well as the facebook profile picture) are changed to the current style, along with the new backgrounds.

13) added a links page to all of our favorite people.

14) built a banner for the videos page linking to our YouTube channel.

15) made the Videos page into the GRS Originals page under media.

16) and lastly, we changed the permalinks to all the pages (its a long story that only google will know :)

Here is the overview:

Hey guys, I know you are all sick of me updating the
tutorials, but I know a lot of you are ready for more tutorials.
Yesterday we purchased Camtasia 7, the software that we are going
to use for our tutorials. So get ready:). We are also working
on a new short film…actually a couple . So connect on Facebook,
Youtube, and Twitter! Thanks, Austen

Hey everyone!

So we are working on our website, trying to redo the design, and connect it to both twitter and Facebook.  So follow us on twitter,  like our page on Facebook,  and subscribe to us on youtube!

Best,

Austen

Hey there! Whoa, what a summer it has been. We have done so many activities it’s crazy. Anyway, in the past couple couple months (you might think we have been doing nothing with GRS…wait, we haven’t been doing anything). But I have been developing some awesome tutorials (which are now coming to Photoshop!). And from now on I will be doing tutorials for both Photoshop AND Gimp…that way no one is left out;)

So keep around and look out for some newer stuff coming out later this week!

Austen
