      Hello, I'm unable to download the "Creative Self Workbook" it takes me to Behance and I sign in, but can not download the entire book.

      Sorry, it looks like that book was removed from its previous location by Behance; not sure why...

       

      Just updated the original post above with a new location, where it's working again and you should be able to find it now.

       

      Thanks for the heads up!

          Thank you for these wonderful resources. Just one little hiccup, though: I am unable to view or download anything from the second link.

          https://prodesigntools.com/pdf/Creative%20Aid%20Art%202.ai [vector artwork]

          Is there something I need to be able to do that?

          Thanks again!

          Hey Janey,

          Just clicked on the link you reposted, as well as the same one given in the top post of this thread – and the correct file immediately downloaded in both cases.

          So not sure why you're having any difficulty... Try with a different browser and/or computer.

          Glad you like them!

          I tried clicking on the link. A new window opened, as with the other links, but nothing was there. I left it alone a while in case it just hadn't finished loading, but nothing ever showed up. I tried refreshing the new page and this page, but still no luck. I only have access to this one computer (MacBook Pro) and have only used Safari.
