As a web designer you now have a much larger library of web enabled fonts available to you. You’re no longer limited to the standard web safe fonts. The newer and easier methods of implementation have made these web font libraries an ideal choice for any web designer to give website that creative edge. As these services improve and evolve we’ll start to see older methods of font embedding like SiFr, which works on Flash replacement, phase out.

In doing some research for some design work here in the Sydney office, I’ve come across an amazing collection of 1960′s imagery in the form of photos, and artwork.

Have a look at this collection and let us know what you think. They had some strange ideas back in the 60′s.

I’ve seen a few videos of what the new Photoshop can do. It will be a while before we’ll be upgrading to CS5 but just look at the box!

If you haven’t seen some of the new features, its worth checking out these YouTube videos that I’ve come across over the past few weeks.

Be amazed by what contentAware is capable of. It will put image retouchers out of work and put an end to the top 10 worse photoshopping blog posts.

Not quite, Andrew Eddie is just coming to town for a few days. While he is here we’ll be running a workshop geared towards designers, Joomla implementers and template developers alike.

If you’re in Adelaide and haven’t attended one of Andrew’s workshops before then it would be a fantastic opportunity to meet and learn from one of Joomla’s best.

Also, don’t forget that Andrew will also be attending the Joomla! User Group Adelaide meeting right after as well.
