Peak-Design

some useful design site links…

While I continue to build and update this blog, I thought I’d add some design site links here to some sites that I regularly browse for design inspiration news, and occasionally a bit of help with some tricky part of a client build that bugs me. So here they are…

Web Design Ideas – www.webdesignideas.org

this design blog is maintained by Valik Rudd, a fellow web designer. He peruses the internet posting about the latest great designs and trends as well as useful tools and tutorials floating around the net.

Design Meltdown – www.designmeltdown.com

design website by Patrick McNeil, he has categorized hundereds of web designs, and updates them constantly with the latest and greatest websites. So if you ever want to see what the latest batch of minimalist designs look like and track their evolution over the last couple of years, design meltdown is the place to go.

Dafont -www.dafont.com

if you haven’t heard of dafont, it’s the number one design site for free fonts of all shapes and sizes, check it out, and bookmark it.

Stock.xchng -www.sxc.hu

this design site is the free side of istockphoto and is a great resource for all your stock photography needs if your budget is non-existant.

Actionscript.org – www.actionscript.org

as the name suggest this site has all the news, tutorials and forum help an actionscript developer could ever want, from beginners to flash gurus.

Dream in code – www.dreamincode.net

Another fabulous resource for any developer in any language available, a must look at site for any web developer.

well that will do for now, links to these sites and others down the track can be found under the misc heading of the links box.

Peak-Design

Hello there, welcome to peak design blog

Here I will endeavour to keep you up to date with the latest developments at Peak Design, including the latest projects from the print and web world, as well as any sites or news events that tickle my fancy. I’ve just gone through a crash course in wordpress (got to keep up with the times and all), and I’ve been bashing away at making my own theme from scratch. Hope you like it, took me a while to get it all working, and I’m sure it’ll take me a while longer to make it perfect.

So I’ll end this first post by saying keep your eye on this blog, as we will be pushing out updates pretty regularly over the next few weeks, keeping you abreast of all the could possibly concern Peak Design and then some more silly stuff as well.
