    Thought you’d like to know, the link from Logo Design Love goes to Ads of the World.

    Where the images eating too much bandwidth?

    David Airey’s last blog post..70 of the best logo design resources

  • Jacob Cass Reply

    Sorry David you are correct. Something went strangely wrong when I copied this post from Dreamweaver, you will notice all of the title texts are completely muddled up.

    Some links also went weird, and words went back to front… ie. Web Designer Wall went to Web Wall Designer. And ‘Showcase Point’ went to ‘Showcase Not’ – No idea what happened, there has never been a problem before. I have fixed it up now.

    Yes the images were chewing right into the bandwidth. 3.5mb per visit.

  • David Airey Reply

    No worries at all. Interesting that you draft your posts in Dreamweaver.

    David Airey’s last blog post..70 of the best logo design resources

  • Jacob Cass Reply

    I find it a lot quicker, especially for adding pictures and you have more control over the layout and more functions as well. For smaller posts I use the WordPress built in one.

  • Jim Reply

    I’m truly hurt. You didn’t mention my site (thegraphicmac.com) ;-)

    And how about CreativeBits.org and Adsoftheworld.com – both excellent resources as well.

  • Jacob Cass Reply

    Your site seems to be down Jim. Ads of the world was mentioned. I will add CreativeBits.Org – Thanks!

  • Brian Yerkes Reply

    Jacob / David,

    I use Dreamweaver also for most of my posts, if they include several images, special formatting etc. It is much easier and you can also have more control over uploading images and graphics…gives you complete freedom to put images in different directories etc…

    I actually use Dreamweaver when editing my entire blog…the style sheets etc. I also find this to be much more efficient.

    Nice list but I would also like to ask you to consider http://www.csszengarden.com/

    I have found some real cool design concepts based on CSS there.

    I believe CSS forms an integral part of a design’s skillset.

    Amongst others i like spunk united, computer arts and freelanceswitch. Real great sites!

  • smokeless cigarettes Reply

    While trying to quit smoking, I have discovered the electronic cigarette. The e-cigs uses a nicotine fluid that consists of just nicotine. Virtually no poisons in the least. They have actually changed my life. No more inhaling toxic substances feels excellent to me!

  • Britta Meinershagen Reply

    All I can think about is tobacco. I know i don’t plan to light up and if somebody offered a hit right this minute, I’d have to decline. I am in a pretty bad mental condition and have been having trouble getting to sleep yet I do know I must absolutely be strong. The e cigs may also be helpful in the end.
