Fortunately for us there are tons of tutorial and resource sites out there to help us do just that! So I thought I’d make a list of my favorite ones.

I’m sure if you are a designer or developer you’ve heard of Envato - the company behind massively successful sites like FlashDen or PSDTUTS and NETTUTS.

FlashDen - an open marketplace where you can sell and buy Flash components - has been around for about 2 years and they recently launched AudioJungle which is just like FlashDen but for audio. Hey, why stop there?

They are launching a brand new website soon called Theme Forest and it’s in beta right now. Huge thanks to Collis we have 250 beta invites to give away! :) [Click here to read more →]

I Really Need to Find It!!! Resources And Tools For (pretty much) Everything

Posted June 14, 2008 in Graphic Design, Programming, Tools/Resources, Web Design, Writing 18 Rockin' Comments »

I am constantly looking for resources and places to go for fonts, articles, ideas and jobs. I asked Jon if I was the only one and he said no, we’re probably all like that. So I figured I should share some of the sites I have used and abused. These sites are all easy to navigate, and offer a wide range of services and resources. Whether you are in need of a new font or medical insurance that doesn’t cost an arm and a leg, its here.

This list is, of course, far from being complete! Please feel free to add to the list by leaving a comment! :) [Click here to read more →]

Interview With Adrian Diaconescu of Rubiqube - We Talk About Design, Blogging and Freelancing

Posted May 22, 2008 in Inspiration, Programming, Web Design 8 Rockin' Comments »

Hey folks, I recently had the pleasure of interviewing Adrian Diaconescu of Rubiqube. In this interview we talk design, blogging and freelancing. Enjoy! :)

Jon: Hi Adrian, thanks a lot for taking the time for this interview. Can you tell our readers a little about yourself? Where you’re from, what you do?

Adrian: Like I said, Jon, I’m a big fan of Freelance Folder and it’s really an honor for me to be considered for an interview. Thanks!

Since I started freelancing, this has become my “freelancing pick-up line”: My name is Adrian Diaconescu and I’m a freelance (web) designer based in Bucharest, Romania. I do a bit of everything (Flash animation, web programming, design for print), but my strong point is designing for the web. Lately I started to specialize in Wordpress custom theme design.

WordPress Theme Release : Simply Valid

Posted September 22, 2007 in Programming, Web Design 1 Rockin' Comment »

Hi folks, I just released a WordPress theme, and I thought I’d let you know. I’ve talked about using templates to boost productivity before on FreelanceFolder, and I guess if you run a blog you’ll be interested in that.

I’m aware that some of you guyz are not bloggers, but if you ever thought about starting a blog (or if you already have one), go have a look at Simply Valid. ;)

There are 2 versions, light and dark, and each comes with 2 different style-sheets, to put the sidebar either on the left or on the right. [Click here to read more →]
