Channel Y

Rating 3.00 out of 5

Amazing site to listen to tracks one.  Amazing videos, amazing songs. Hours of fun ahead…no more need to search the tube or vimeo for the golden music video, the yChannel does it for you.

yesyesyall.org

From yesyesyall:

You know, it started as us just talking. We had the music in common. It became a glue that we looked forward to daily talking about. We felt a need to share these conversations with more people and out of that spawned YYY. For us, by us, and everyone else.

We established yesyesyall with an intent to promote and push the artist first and foremost. We want to help support them and you in the best way possible and if anything try to help artists and listeners in these times of change. Think of MTV on a TV and you have YYY in an atmosphere.

Positivity first and foremost. It’s in the name. Yes, for us, don’t stop. Our intent is for this to be a testament to those who push the limits of perception. To be a source of inspiration and creativity. To build a community one click, nod, dap, ass shake at a time.

Photoshop CS5 Preview

Rating 3.00 out of 5

A little sneak preview for the new (and very much improved) Photoshop. And it could save trees too!

One of the biggest requests we get of Photoshop is to make adding, removing, moving or repairing items faster and more seamless. From retouching to completely reimagining an image, heres an early glimpse of what could happen in the future when you press the delete key. How might you use this new capability in your workflow?

Rating 4.00 out of 5

from cyberdesignz.com

  1. Know the purpose and goals of a website before starting to design, perhaps the audience.
  2. Plan the website layout according to the client’s perspective and interaction.
  3. Choose colors and color combination very carefully, go for browser safe colors.
  4. Keep the font style and size consistent throughout the website, maintain typography.
  5. Keep navigation and menu structure simple and clear, properly organized with sub-menus if any.
  6. Websites main header is the first impression, so make it stand out. Speak a bit louder.
  7. Divide content into sections and paragraphs using headings and bullets. This increases the content’s readability and impression.
  8. Use interesting images that compliment the website and integrate with its whole theme. Induce call to action.
  9. Each page of the website should have appropriate title and Meta tags to help rank well in search engines.
  10. Search box option is a must to help user find relevant information on the website.

Can you see the button

Rating 3.00 out of 5
A new tool by Google tries to help you to optimize your design.

How many times have you come to a website, where you want to buy, order, download or just find something, but you don’t see it right away. A sign of designers using their wonderful large (read humungous)  screens, not thinking of netbook users, or just regular 15″ screen users. Simple, yet terribly useful tool to check out how your design will work in the real world.
