A nice collection of FREE - yes FREE!!!- photoshop and illustrator brushes from a very resourceful site Colorburned.

These brushes are very valuable when we do digital manipulation/painting. I mainly use them to add texture to my piece.

I’ll be downloading these cool stuff this afternoon.

Logoinstant.com is a site where you can download stylish web 2.0 looking logos for free.

Not only they give you the image, they also provide the source files in both ai and psd. These people are very generous.

Smashing magazine compiled a nice list of 10 design styles that are popular this year. This list definitely got me thinking about what I could use for my next project. I hope this will inspire you as much it did for me.
