5 Great Web Dev Tools
Back when we did the poll on WebHostingShow.com a few weeks back, you told me you wanted more Web development talk on the podcast. Well, not to be one to disappoint - I thought I would start sharing the Web dev love today.
1. Color Scheme Generator 2 - When it comes to selecting colors for your Web site, you want to work with things that look well together. WellStyled.com gives you a generator that will help you match your colors and come up with a basic color theme for your Web site or project.
2. 2 Column Tableless Layout - A lot of folks might say this is the best layout on the Web today to try to create, and this second link from WellStyled.com walks you through, step by step, on getting it created.
3. Great Fonts for Web 2.0 - This list (found at ModernLifeIsRubbish.co.uk) gives you some of the most popular Web 2.0 Web sites out there today and lets you know what font they are using for the Web site’s header images. Might be an interesting place to get some inspiration.
4. AnyBrowser.com - This link gives you your Web site of choice in any resolution you can pretty much think of. Just type your URL into the box, and see how it looks in different sizes.
5. Free Icon Resources (for your site) - MaxPower.ca has put together a great list of icons that are free to use on any Web site out there today. You get links, artists, previews and the type of license it was released under as well.
For more Web development help and talk through the week, be sure to check out Lockergnome’s Web Developers newsletter. It is another side project of mine, and I guess since it is away from my major network of Web sites you could refer to it as my home away from home.
