For me, selecting the right color theme and combination is almost equal to everything when in comes to web design. Most of the time I am inspired by the colors of the photographs that I use while making the initial design. Let’s say I am to make a website about Flowers and Plants; I would dive right into SXC.hu and find the best photo I could on the subject matter.  Run Photoshop and use the Eyedropper Tool to grab the colors. That is why when I found Colourlovers.com I instanly fell in love with it. They have some beautiful color combinations that I could never crank out from using the Eyedropper tool in Photoshop.

My officemate gave me this link: http://www.deviantart.com/view/32168056/

A place to keep post production materials for use of reference, an inactive job file. This morgue file contains free high resolution digital stock photography for either corporate or public use.

The term “morgue file” is popular in the newspaper business to describe the file that holds past issues flats. Although the term has been used by illustrators, comic book artist, designers and teachers as well. The purpose of this site is to provide free image reference material for use in all creative pursuits. This is the world wide web’s morguefile.

Another free stock photo site. I think photos are licensed under Creative Commons — so it’s all good!

I just go the first issue of the SXC Newsletter. Real nice. First, they introduced thesaint, a web designer from South Africa. I have downloaded some of his photos and they are really good.

Here is what they said about him: thesaint (a.k.a Matthew Bowden) is a web designer from Johannesburg, Gauteng, South Africa who loves snapping pictures of just about anything with his Canon EOS 20D. His images on sxc.hu receive more downloads and comments than just about any other members’. Best of all, his images have no restictions, so help yourself!

Seldom that I find something on the internet that is free and legal at the same time. It is so rare that I find stuff like these (I use them on my websites) that I could not wait to post it here. Thank God for Creative Commons and Sourceforge :)  Thank you creator of http://projects.sublink.ca/sweetie/

Another new look. Still in table-less CSS. We are still fixing some bugs on the site. I think the bugs are bearable. I will find time within this week to fix the bugs. There are bugs in the comment page, but you will be still able to add comment. I have tested the new CSS layout in Firefox(mostly) and in Internet Explorer. In Opera, it should be viewable.

In the meantime I hope you find the new design easy on the eyes. If you have questions or suggestions, email me at wenbertdelrosario@yahoo.com
