Firefox 3 will be available for download on June 17th, 2008. Firefox is the safest and most customizable browser out there. It also doesn’t break page layouts like a certain other browser that will remain nameless (coughIEcough). Help the Mozilla foundation reach it’s world record by downloading the very latest version on Tuesday the 17th.

It’s a nifty tool that automatically creates pixel perfect thumbnails based on your size specifications. You can either set whether it captures the entire web page or just whats visible “above the fold”. This will definitely come in handy for portfolio thumbnails, etc!

In their own words:

With thumbalizr you can take screenshots of any webpage you want.
Use it for your presentations, documentations, visualisations or your webpage…..

They came to Keenpixel to aid the switch and create a Shopify theme that was similar to their current Yahoo store look and feel. Keenpixel worked with their current logo, colors and design to establish a uniform presence under the Shopify platform.

These articles include a series of color palettes inspired by famous landmarks, popular travel destinations and even astronomical details.

Here are a few of my favorite palettes:

Do you have any favorite color palette sites? Where do you find inspiration for the colors you use?

The folks over at Freelance Switch have released yet another project in the advertising agency Miiingle. Representing such sites as flashden.net, FaveUp and NorthxEast it’s sure to be a popular marketing asset to freelancers.

If nothing else pay them a visit and check out the snazzy orange design. (although I’m kind of leaning toward it being salmon!)

  • - Stay tuned for a redesign of the Brambles Inn & Gardens website. The current design has served the inn well and continues to receive compliments. The inn has undertaken a new marketing initiative however and the redesign will accompany this effort. This initiative will also include an updated business card design as well as 4×9 rack card brochures.
  • - I’m currently working on porting over an existing website design to a Shopify theme for a jewelry artist that specializes in birds, bunnies and other woodland creatures!
  • - Also on the Shopify front, be on the lookout for an online scrapbook store that specializes in coordinated kits.
