As a designer and freelance writer, the number of hours I spend on the Internet are staggering. Seriously, it isn’t uncommon for me to spend more than 30 hours a week on the Internet – without factoring in geeky entertainment and pleasure. No, those hours are spent doing research and actual work.
During all that time, the number of absolutely too-cool finds I run across for designers could easily fill an encyclopedia set of books.
Every weekday, I will post the best free tutorials, resources, tips, tricks, and so on for fellow designers. Nothing is off-limits; we’re talking everything from icon sets to fonts, vectors to brushes, textures and patterns and layered PSD files.
