Resource Exploration






 Resource Exploration - Cutting Edge Resources


Back when I was in high school, the computer and its word processing programs were cutting edge.  Fast forward to my senior year in college – the internet was invented – cutting edge.  Today cutting edge is so far away from my norm that I am astounded by what is out there.  My cutting-edge is just being able to see what is going on in the world with the click of a button.  These are my most used sites from a designer and learning standpoint.  The final four are places I go for inspiration and to check out the current landscape in design.


Basic resources I have used on the internet are:


www.MrWallpaper.com – free use of high resolution files for backgrounds

www.u-tube.com  – can learn anything by video

http://www.ehow.com/ - learning by reading

www.Lynda.com   – classes on line $25 per month


As for more cutting edge design I like these four sites.  I go to them for inspiration.


Thefwa is an award site and a job listing site based out of Britian.  Its presentation is brilliant.


The Cuttingedge –designs has some really great vision.


The hiero is a flash website company that seems to know what is going on.


Design Fix is a site for showcasing websites.
