I was wondering how useful can they be but what I like about them is the graphic and the idea that is behind them.
I will show here some of the button that I found surfing on the net.
Also check this tutorial in NetTuts to build these buttons with paypal.
I was always wondering how in the other sites’ contests they could choose a random comment number.
The solution is this site: random.org where you can choose any number of random picks between 1 and 1 billion. Cool isn’t it?
In a while I’ll use it to give a gift to some lucky readers but for the moment I’m not telling more…
I just found a new job!!
Check this funny website: Year of Creativity.

Come on guys!! Everybody loves Flickr!!
So thanx to the guys at Mentalaxis for the huge list of more than 100 free tools for Flickr.

I was inspired for this piece by a tutorial of Nik Ainley in Digital Art Magazine and You can find there the source image.
My piece is quite different because it’s about smoke and not water but take a look at the tutorial because the results is very cool.
I also managed to make my signature with the smoke.
From this month I will start to write a monthly post about resources that you can find on the Net.
What do you think about this idea? Could it be useful for you guys? You can find also other resources under the freebies category.
