CS1015 USER INTERFACE DESIGN

TEXT BOOK

I can't find any Rapidshare links so i give you this link:

http://uploading.com/files/WBEYL8ZA/The_Essential_Guide_to_User_Interface_Design.rar.html

And here is the tricky part, all my friends are reporting me that this free upload site is always bugging them saying:

"THE DAILY TRAFFIC LIMIT FOR YOUR COUNTRY IS CONSUMED. IT'S TIME TO BUY A PREMIUM ACCOUNT! (or you can try again tomorrow)"

So here is what you can do if this happens to you also. Then just click the link given below:

http://anonymouse.org/cgi-bin/anon-www.cgi/http://uploading.com/files/WBEYL8ZA/The_Essential_Guide_to_User_Interface_Design.rar.html

Then there you will find the Download file option just click that and please patiently wait for 90 seconds as the site will make all the free users to wait. Then ones waited for the specified seconds you will find a new option that says free download. Please don't click that orelse you will have to wait another 90seconds again and this will go on in a infinite loop.

so what you have to do is when the FREE DOWNLOAD button appears just right click on it then use "copy link location"(firefox) or "copy shortcut" (IE)then goto the address bar of your browser and clear everything in there and right click in there and paste. Now hit the enter button and your file will be ready to download if you have did everything as i said.

Any doubts or problems please feel free to mail me at kannan.csea@gmail.com
