Free webdesign resources

Posted under Web Newbies, Webmaster Tips on August 17

To get designing using photoshop you will need some resources to help you. I will quickly run through some different resources which will help you:


Tutorials

Great for people new to designing to get the basics. Also good for some new tricks which people use. Websites I recommend are www.good-tutorials.com and www.pixel2life.com.

Stock Photos/Images

Everyone needs good photos from time to time to use on their designs. Some good free ones which I use are: www.sxc.hu and www.deviantart.com.

Free Photoshop Brushes/Shapes/Patterns

These really do come in use when you are designing. You can download a variety of patterns/ brushes and custom shapes for photoshop. The place which I use for this is deviantart.com. You must check the details about each that you download as they are designed by users of the websites and sometimes require link backs.

Free Renders

Renders are images which have been cut so they have no background. Often people use renders of celebrities or characters from computer games. They really do come in use if you know how to use them. A nice site for free renders is www.planetrenders.net. There are also many more so just search around if you can’t find a render which you like from there.
