CreativeFan Launch

site-news-imageWe interrupt your regularly scheduled Best of the Week series to bring you some breaking news.  CreativeFan, a new network aimed at creatively-oriented people, launched today, and will be updating frequently with tools, resources, inspiration, freebies and more.  It’s a side project of mine that is designed to complement PresidiaCreative (which, as you might have noticed, has moved more towards inspiration and artist features).  CreativeFan will be more focused on guest authors, and there will be associated tutorial sites, all free of course.  If you’re interested in being a guest author, there’s information on the site.

Go and check out CreativeFan, and subscribe early so you get all the awesome posts as they get published.  Here’s the link: http://creativefan.com/

Thanks as always for reading, and both PresidiaCreative and CreativeFan will continue to bring you the best articles on the web!

Best of the Web #30

thumbAs always, since it’s Monday, I’ve gone ahead and rounded up the best posts from the design world from the previous week.  While certainly not the “end-all” of best of the web posts, I think that these posts illustrate the 7-10 posts that I think readers would most enjoy.

This week had some great tutorials, some really awesome inspirational posts (including one roundup of really cool Threadless t-shirts), and of course, some excellent design freebies.  Of course, if you feel like I missed any posts, please let me know in the comments.

Thanks for reading as always, everyone, and if you ever need anything, just drop me an email or comment.

Today we have the best of the week from this past week, so be sure to check out these posts for some awesome resources.

Thanks for reading, and have a great week everyone.
