collectivesunited.com | collecting creative roundups

This is my new pet project called collectivesunited.com and the idea behind it is very simple. I am trying to collect all these really interesting roundups about design, development, photography etc. I decided to give the authors or people who’d like to share something interesting, the option to publish their own roundups (moderated of course). So have a look and if you are an author feel free to submit your roundup!

Inspiration: web design trends in 2009 (and 2010): Where are we heading? Volume 2

Here’s the second part of posts about web design trends that we will see in the end of 2009 and 2010. If you missed the first post have a look there as well. In this post we will check a few examples using text replacement techniques (image based or through javascript), a touch of flash and/or complicated (but non intrusive) backgrounds.

Vacation time for me, free stuff for you: Win a copy of Stylizer for windows and Pixelmator for Mac OS X

Hi everyone, it’s this time of the year again where i have to take a break and recharge my batteries. So before leaving my RSS feed alone for about 15 days i decided to give away 2 small but powerful apps to 2 lucky readers. So here they are then:

Stylizer for Windows users

For our windows friends it’s Stylizer. If you don’t know what this is, well you should give it a try. It’s a CSS editor but not like every other editor. It approaches things in a visual way but with 100% control over your stylesheet. If you manage to spend the first 15 “uncomfortable” minutes and manage (which is really easy) to find your way around, well you don’t go back. It just rocks.

Pixelmator photo editor for Mac users

Yes i do know Photoshop is the industry standard but for Pixelmator’s price, well, i don’t think you will find anything similar to this. Here’s you chance to win a copy of this little gem.

All you have to do is leave a comment (and choose the product that you would like to win) . Yeap that’s it, nothing else. I will pick up the winners on September 1st when i get back to the office. Good luck everyone and see you in 2 weeks!
