Please, suggest a good book or tutorial on designing websites in adobe photoshop or illustrator?

Ive watched a couple of tutorials by Justin Seeley on Linda.com they are good but Im looking for deeper knowledge. If somebody is familiar with smashing ebooks give opinion on them, please.

Hi,

I would recommend courses on www.creativelive.com - they are free when you watch live broadcast. The course you may be interested in is https://www.creativelive.com/courses/psd2html but there is much more, just check their catalog.

A have a few books from smashing magazine (very helpfull) but they are not exactly about designing in Photoshop, rather about good designing rules, inspirations, color theory, etc so I don't know if it is what you are looking for.

Can you recommend some Smashing Magazine books in particular that pertain to good designing rules, inspirations, color theory?
