50+ Free Wood, Concrete & Paper Textures for Designers

// October 10th, 2008 // 3 Comments » // Blogging, Design, Design Resources, Graphic Design, Graphics, webdesign

Here you’ll find over 50 links to Wood, paper and concrete textures. I love when designers use the wood and paper texture in their designs. I was thinking cardboard might look cool too. Like a will work for food sign? Haha! There are some really great free textures available on Flickr.com and Deviantart.com and if your looking for more textures you also might want to check out some of the Digital Scrapbooking website which I recently discovered to be a great resource for designers. You have to kinda search for the free downloads though because most of them charge for their stuff. If your a graphic designer I would definitely look into this niche market as a way to make some extra money or possibly a living. There are a lot of bored women online it seems that are willing to buy the graphics they need to make a digital scrapbook.

Click the “Read More” Link for the rest of the Textures…and for some links to free scrapbooking pages that I personally found to offer the most free content.

The Amazing Agregado Lifestream Theme for Wordpress

// September 29th, 2008 // 5 Comments » // Design, Design Resources, Featured, Free Website Templates, I recommend, Wordpress, Wordpress Themes, webdesign

Announcing the Beautiful Agregado Lifestream Theme. This is the best theme I’ve seen so far and I’ve tested out..I’d have to say close to 100 Wordpress themes over the past year. This theme has a lot of really unique features and qualities that I haven’t see in any of the other themes that I think people will really dig. I almost wish I could keep it a secret. haha!

But I can’t.. so here it is…

Download The Agregado Lifestream Theme | View the Demo

Designed by Darren Hoyt and Matt Dawson of Category4, commissioned by the folks at Smashing Magazine. It features a built-in lifestream module and contact form with custom control panel options.

Lifestream gives you the ability to stream your social networking feeds such as Twitter, Flickr and Delicious in your sidebar. You can view my website’s main page for an example of how that works.

Built into the Agregado admin interface you can add your Flickr, Twitter, Delicious, Magnolia, Pownce, Last.fm, Facebook and Goodread usernames for the Lifestream sidebar.
It also gives you room to add up to 4 other rss feeds to the Lifestream.

I’ve added my FriendsFeed RSS feed because that includes my digg, youtube and others that don’t seem to have an RSS address well at least that I could find. Since you can only add an RSS feed address to the Lifestream. Unless I’m missing something.. let me know.
Anyway, the theme has a lot of good stuff. So, download it and test it out yourself. I’m currently using it and I plan on customizing it a bit but it really was perfect out of the box. I must give mad props to the designers. They did an amazing job with this theme.

Speak up and give me some comment love. I swear I get up to a thousand hits a day on this website but I’ll be lucky to get one comment a week. haha! That’s pretty pathetic I know. I must be pretty damn boring. No one wants to talk to me.
Show the girl some love will ya? I feel a little desperate here.. begging for comments and all but geez. I love to interact but that’s pretty hard all by myself. Well..actually I take that back…..

FlockStar!

// August 17th, 2008 // Comments Off // Applications, Browsers, For Geeks, Freeware, Geeks, I recommend, Ibdreamy, Social Network, Update, Useful, web tools

Flock is so bad ass..It seems I find a new feature on Flock everyday that makes me go “WOW that’s cool”.

_ For example I took this screen shot with Flocks built in screenshot tool that allows you to select clips and snap away.

_ It has a built in Blog editor so I can post to my blog using my browser

_A drag and drop web clipboard manager

_Media bar that streams media from sites like Flickr, Digg, Youtube, your Facebook friends

_A sidebar with all your updated feeds and social networking sites

_side bar listing all your accounts and services that you can click on an automatically be logged into

So if you haven’t tried it yet..dammit try it! I still use Firefox and I probably always will but I love me some Flock now and then.. it’s like my secret little drug…well maybe not that dramatic no..but it’s damn good? I love their My world page it shows me all my updates from my social networking sites. It’s nifty. (see screenshot)
