We sorta had one of these in this forum before, in that we had one linking to tutorials, but I thought it would also be a good idea to link to Graphics Software as well And seeing as how we don't have one in the forum again yet, and how I'm bored out of my mind, I thought I'd start one

This is an attempt to create a list of links to graphics/art tutorials and software and thus provide a useful resource for visitors to this forum. The key to the success of this thread is USER PARTICIPATION. If you find a useful tutorial or piece of software -- post a link to it in this thread!

Here's some tutorials for webdesign:

PageResource.com
W3Schools
Web Page Design for Designers
Web Pages That Suck
Webmonkey

And since this is related to webdesign, I thought some font pages would help, where people can download lots of different fonts. Fonts are a very vital part of webdesign:

1001 Fonts.com
Fonts Unlimited

Hoped this helped. Enjoy!

MSPAINT.EXE
Microsoft Paint
Comes with nearly every Windows

tutorial:
if ya paste a pic larger than the current pic, it asks you to resize. doesn't ask if it came w/ XP. (bug??)
and...well, unless you don't know what a mouse, keyboard and pixel are, you shouldn't need a tutorial. XD. very simple, paint is. but very effective.

Is there a good program that can do what Alias Sketchbook Pro does, and that's for the Mac?
Alias Sketchbook Pro refuses to work on my computer. It crashes whenever I load it, and I've tried downloading from a few different places already.
I'd like to be able to pull off this sort of sketchy thing without having to scan a drawing.

OpenOffice has a image maker thing. It looks a bit like PhotoShop. I don't know how good it is, but at first glance it looked decent.

BlueRobot, it's mostly a place with a few layouts for websites, but I learned a lot from their code. Mind you most of it... I ignored to make my layout on here.
A List Apart, I always found this to be really informative and helpful.

I'm not familiar with any alternatives off the top of my head, besides Painter. I'll see what I can find though.

Does Painter work on your machine? It's pretty resource intensive and just about kills my iBook, but I've done art in it before...

da font - No tutorials, not software (per say), but they DO have a nice selection of fonts for download, and depending on what you're doing, fonts are helpful.

My favorite feature, though, is that while browsing the fonts, there's a place where you can type in some text, and each font will have a sample using your text below it's name. Very handy, IMO.

I never tried painter until now. I wasn't able to register an account from their site until I said I was from Antartica. Odd.

It doesn't kill my Mac.. it is a tad laggy, but not so bad. My computer is pretty slow, so I'm surprised, especially after reading your post.
This is fun, a lot better than that other painting program I used. I'm going to mess around with it more.
