Interview – Taffy Clifford

Today’s installment of the NAPP Interview Series is, in my opinion, one of the coolest yet because it comes from a person that we don’t get to see or hear from normally. Taffy Clifford is an Associate Designer for Photoshop User Magazine, and Layers Magazine. She designs a lot of the really cool layout art [...]
