In the United States, the only shows we had really been exposed to were &#8220;Pokemon&#8221; and &#8220;Sailor Moon.&#8221; That is how it was for several years, until one day the genre exploded. <span id="more-3775"></span></p>
<p>Japanese animation became a hit, and suddenly, we were seeing shows everywhere. &#8220;Cowboy Bebop,&#8221; &#8220;Naruto,&#8221; &#8220;Evangelion,&#8221; &#8220;Lupin III,&#8221; &#8220;Samurai Champloo,&#8221; &#8220;FLCL&#8221; &#8230; it was everywhere. Not just for kids, but for adults, as well.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter" alt="10 anime photoshop tutorials 02   10 Anime Photoshop Tutorials" src="http://i133.photobucket.com/albums/q62/anya678/task-11-10/illustrations/10-anime-photoshop-tutorials-02.jpg" width="550" height="440" title="10 Anime Photoshop Tutorials image" /></p>
<p>For those who loved it, they would soon find themselves seeking out more. This would open the door to a whole new world of titles, both obscure and well known. True anime fans know how addicting the bright landscapes, rich storylines and fun characters can be.</p>
<p>If you find yourself wanting to try your hand at making some anime, your best bet is through Photoshop. It takes some time to get the hang of it, but these excellent tutorials will help get you there.</p>
<h3>1. <a target="_blank" href="http://www.ehow.com/how_8494543_draw-anime-photoshop-cs3-tutorial.html">How to Draw Anime With Photoshop CS3 Tutorial</a></h3>
<p>This is a very easy to follow and basic tutorial that guides you through the creation of forms in only seven steps. Of course, this will only provide you with part of what you need. But it is a good introduction to the subject. It doesn&#8217;t have photos, which is a bit of a disappointment. But the steps are easy enough to follow without them.</p>
<h3>2. <a target="_blank" href="http://www.ehow.com/how_5597490_color-anime-photoshop.html">How to Color an Anime in Photoshop</a></h3>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter" alt="10 anime photoshop tutorials 03   10 Anime Photoshop Tutorials" src="http://i133.photobucket.com/albums/q62/anya678/task-11-10/illustrations/10-anime-photoshop-tutorials-03.jpg" width="550" height="413" title="10 Anime Photoshop Tutorials image" /></p>
<p>Another eHow tutorial, this one is a lot more thorough. It covers coloring, which is a major part of anime art and gives it the depth it needs. This is broken down into base colors, shading, highlights and blending. It will take longer to get this one down, but it is a must-have for your bookmarks. Unfortunately, there are still no pictures, which is why it is good that is explains each step so directly.</p>
<h3>3. <a target="_blank" href="http://ps.psd.co/2011/05/05/anime-fonts-updated/">Anime Fonts</a></h3>
<p>Most anime art has some kind of text, especially if you are looking for a manga style. This page has some great fonts, including Bleack, Harry Potter and Naruto, along with different symbol sets.</p>
<h3>4. <a target="_blank" href="http://tiptechtoe.com/2012/04/how-to-turn-yourself-into-an-anime-character-using-photoshop/">How to Turn Yourself Into an Anime Character Using Photoshop</a></h3>
<p>I love video tutorials, as they are so easy to follow. This one shows you how to turn yourself into an anime character. The video itself is only five minutes long, and the steps are a lot simpler than others I have seen &#8211; mainly, because it is using a picture instead of turning yourself into a character for a costume.</p>
<h3>5. <a target="_blank" href="http://www.tutorialdash.com/tutorial/adobe-photoshop/photo-editing/view/How-to-Make-Real-life-stuff-Anime-style">How to Make Real Life Stuff Anime Style</a></h3>
<p>This is another &#8220;real life&#8221; anime tutorial. The steps are easy, but the effects aren&#8217;t as good as you would hope for. I would use this one for creating initial pictures just to play with for practice. It is fun and still looks cool, even if it doesn&#8217;t really look much like anime.</p>
<h3>6. <a target="_blank" href="http://squex.deviantart.com/art/Anime-eye-Brush-42762714">Anime Eye Brush</a></h3>
<p>Everyone needs to know how to do eyes for anime characters, as that is where a great deal of their style comes from. But the eyes are probably the hardest part of the form. These brushes make it so much simpler, thanks to a DeviantArt user.</p>
<h3>7. <a target="_blank" href="http://www.nanoda.com/tutorial-iv-how-to-use-shadow-and-light-effects-in-anime-style-with-photoshop/">How to Use Shadow and Light Effects in Anime Style With Photoshop</a></h3>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter" alt="10 anime photoshop tutorials 04   10 Anime Photoshop Tutorials" src="http://i133.photobucket.com/albums/q62/anya678/task-11-10/illustrations/10-anime-photoshop-tutorials-04.jpg" width="550" height="354" title="10 Anime Photoshop Tutorials image" /></p>
<p>Another important part of anime is the shadow and light effects. These are harder to do, thanks to the stark lines of the style. This tutorial breaks it down for you and shows you exactly how to apply both elements.</p>
<h3>8. <a target="_blank" href="http://www.ehow.co.uk/how_8620940_adobe-cs3-manga-anime-tutorials.html">Adobe Photoshop CS3 Manga and Anime Tutorials</a></h3>
<p>There are two tutorials here, one for anime and one for manga. They follow the format of the first tutorial on this list, with a simple set of steps and no pictures. But they explain each process a little better in this one.</p>
<h3>9. <a target="_blank" href="http://www.wonderhowto.com/how-to-draw-manga-body-proportions-288270/">How to Draw Manga Body Proportions</a></h3>
<p>Another video with a great lesson, this 17-minute clip allows you to follow the artist to work on the proper proportions for manga drawing. Anyone who has read manga knows this is a very specific art, so it is a must-watch tutorial.</p>
<h3>10. <a target="_blank" href="http://drawing.wonderhowto.com/how-to/draw-manga-eye-288280/">How to Draw a Manga Eye</a></h3>
<p>Another eye tutorial for manga artists, this one is a nice video. So you take those brushes for later, with this initial tutorial showing you how to get the base down right. Once you have the actual shape down, you can upload the image into Photoshop and use the brushes to fill them in.</p>
<h3>Conclusion</h3>
<p>Anime is a great art style that tells a story with a simple image. If you want to learn how to do it, try these tutorials. They are informative, easy to follow and the perfect introduction.</p>

As the latest and greatest programs continue to emerge or evolve, graphic designers must maintain vast knowledge bases in order to remain relevant to client expectations. Even with a more do-it-yourself culture than ever before, the stage in which designs become physical, printed objects remains fairly ambiguous.<span id="more-3744"></span></p>
<h3>Lithography</h3>
<div id="attachment_3748" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 410px"><img class="size-full wp-image-3748 " alt="   A Graphic Designers Guide to Printing" src="http://rushtips.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/04/374901_10152261381955604_1593543820_n.jpeg" width="400" height="300" title="A Graphic Designers Guide to Printing image" /><p class="wp-caption-text"><a target="_blank" href="http://dribbble.com/shots/797651-Litho-Process" target="_blank"> Litho Process &#8211; By Tina Floerch</a></p></div>
<p>Of all the printing methods available, lithography reigns. Used primarily to produce high-quantity orders of posters, books, maps, newspapers, and packaging, lithography has long been the traditional process for complex printing requirements. Offset lithography in particular uses malleable aluminum, mylar, polyester, or paper plates for printing. Brushed or rough surfaces define most modern plates, which are then coated in a photosensitive emulsion. Once the negative is produced and cured under ultraviolet light, a duplicate of the original image is created, ready to make multiple copies.</p>
<h3>Digital Printing</h3>
<div id="attachment_3750" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 410px"><img class="size-full wp-image-3750" alt="the numbers poster 1 1x   A Graphic Designers Guide to Printing" src="http://rushtips.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/04/the_numbers_poster_1_1x.jpg" width="400" height="300" title="A Graphic Designers Guide to Printing image" /><p class="wp-caption-text"><a target="_blank" href="http://dribbble.com/shots/1033556-The-Numbers-Poster-1" target="_blank"> The Numbers Poster &#8211; By Michael Spitz</a></p></div>
<p>Digital printing is another popular process which allows an assortment of media to have a digital image printed directly to them. Digital printing is commonly associated with desktop publishing where low-quantity print runs are accomplished with laser or inkjet printers. While the cost of this process is higher per page, the financial burdens even out do to lithography’s use of expensive plates. While miniscule, there is undoubtedly a loss in quality that must be accounted for when choosing which process to utilize. Still, benefits such as on-demand print capabilities, quick turnaround, and labour savings are undeniable. Digital printing continues to evolve, having become a true competitor to offset lithography.</p>
<h3>Relief Printing</h3>
<div id="attachment_3749" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 410px"><img class="size-full wp-image-3749" alt="dribble   A Graphic Designers Guide to Printing" src="http://rushtips.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/04/dribble.jpg" width="400" height="300" title="A Graphic Designers Guide to Printing image" /><p class="wp-caption-text"><a target="_blank" href="http://dribbble.com/shots/724010-Reduction-woodcut" target="_blank"> Reduction Woodcut &#8211; By Harry Diaz</a></p></div>
<p>A relief printing technique, letterpress printing has a long history in the world of graphic design. Typically a technician builds and arranges movable type onto a press bed, applies ink, and presses paper against it to transmit the ink. The process also encompasses wood engraving, zinc cuts, and blocks of linoleum combined with metal type.</p>
<p>There are a few specialty letterpress shops in operation today. These businesses survive through niche markets such as fine edition book printing or high-end stationary.</p>
<h3>Electrostatic Printing</h3>
<p>Electrostatic printing technology was a pioneering endeavour which led to the development of digital printing for large formats. While competitively priced on a per unit basis with inkjet printing, Electrostatic processes do have some negative aspects such as an extremely high investment cost for equipment. Still the method remains widely used for its incredibly quick printing abilities, complete with outstanding resolution and color reproduction. Electrostatic printing also happens to be the favoured process for fade resistant and lightfast images.</p>
<h3>Thermographic Printing</h3>
<p>Finally, thermographic printing is a method available to designers which actually incorporates two types of printing. Both create images and letters on paper by utilizing heat. The least complicated uses color changing material to coat paper. The change occurs when heat is applied and was most often used in early model fax machines. Thermal ink transfer printing, meanwhile, is more complicated. Heat is applied to a ribbon which then melts print onto a paper sheet. While both methods have been largely left behind, there are some areas like direct-receipt applications which have a need for the service.</p>
<p>Graphic designers should be fairly knowledgeable of all their printing options and must chose a <a target="_blank" href="http://www.just-print.ie/">good quality printing services</a> to get the best end result. No two projects are exactly alike and each should be carefully evaluated to determine the best print solution.</p>

<p><span id="more-3738"></span></p>
<p>The world is changing. Aesthetic tastes are changing. People are more attuned than ever to good design. In fact nearly half of all businesses based in the UK know that a great and innnovative design is imperative in helping them stay at the forefront of their industry. An excellent and well-judged piece of design will not only make your business look legitimate, exciting and original, it can also increase your market share by 6.3%. While the money you spend on design can significantly increase your turnover. Alternatively those businesses that strip back on design are more likely to see a decline in growth.</p>
<p>POW! Add impact to your design, and see impact in growth, it’s as simple as that. Rapidly growing businesses are smart enough to know that design is crucial to success and over three quarters of businesses say they have increased turnover through design. Furthermore you could see your shares outperform key stock-market indices by a massive 200%. Just another benefit for a design-led business.</p>

Most of us are more likely to have heard and read about world famous painters at some point or the other, but something probably most of us haven’t heard much about, is world famous painters who were left-handed! Here are a few such prodigies who used their left hand to create some amazing wonders of art.</p>
<h3>Leonardo Da Vinci</h3>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a target="_blank" href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/edrost88/6158543070/"><img class="aligncenter" alt="6158543070 6bdf38645e   4 Left Handed Painters Who Revolutionized Art" src="http://farm7.staticflickr.com/6070/6158543070_6bdf38645e.jpg" width="360" height="500" title="4 Left Handed Painters Who Revolutionized Art image" /></a></p>
<p>Perhaps the greatest painter in the history of art, the creator of famous masterpieces such as the Vitruvian Man, Mona Lisa and the Last Supper, Leonardo Da Vinci can easily be ticked off as the world’s most famous left-handed painter. Da Vinci is famously known for his unique technique of “mirror writing”, where he would often write from right to left of the page. Also known as the Father of Renaissance, Leonardo Da Vinci’s gamut of influence stretched far beyond the field of art – he also happened to be a mathematician, an architect, an engineer, a botanist, a geologist and what not! That’s what you call pure genius.</p>
<h3>Michelangelo Buonarroti</h3>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a target="_blank" href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/fdctsevilla/3992887090/"><img class="aligncenter" alt="3992887090 6c9963c075   4 Left Handed Painters Who Revolutionized Art" src="http://farm3.staticflickr.com/2634/3992887090_6c9963c075.jpg" width="415" height="500" title="4 Left Handed Painters Who Revolutionized Art image" /></a></p>
<p>Another phenomenal painter and sculptor from the Italian Renaissance era, Michelangelo Buonarroti also happened to be a left-hander. Arguably one of the greatest artists of all time, Michelangelo’s most influential and famous works include the stunning sculptures of <em>Pieta</em> and <em>David. </em>As far as painting was concerned, interestingly, Michelangelo never considered himself to be a great painter, but still ended up creating his most famous frescos on the ceiling of the <em>Sistine Chapel. </em>This was the same chapel where he would later go on to paint the <em>The Last Judgement</em> on the altar wall.</p>
<h3>Raphael (Raffaello Sanzio)</h3>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a target="_blank" href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/lachlanhardy/4839616878/"><img class="aligncenter" alt="4839616878 342487a5aa   4 Left Handed Painters Who Revolutionized Art" src="http://farm5.staticflickr.com/4086/4839616878_342487a5aa.jpg" width="500" height="375" title="4 Left Handed Painters Who Revolutionized Art image" /></a></p>
<p>After Leonardo Da Vinci and Michelangelo, Raphael is considered to be the third greatest name from the Renaissance in Italy. Along with other incredible works of art, Raphael is known for his numerous <em>Madonna </em>paintings. His work is still remembered and admired for its remarkable clarity, simple and balanced compositions, and the visual freshness of the subjects in his paintings. Though he died an early death, he is still remembered and admired by millions, for his extraordinary masterpieces.</p>
<h3>Rembrandt</h3>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a target="_blank" title="Rembrandt van Rijn by deflam, on Flickr" href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/freeparking/847310583/"><img class="aligncenter" alt="847310583 397a29fb4c   4 Left Handed Painters Who Revolutionized Art" src="http://farm2.staticflickr.com/1159/847310583_397a29fb4c.jpg" width="416" height="500" title="4 Left Handed Painters Who Revolutionized Art image" /></a></p>
<p>Yet another left-handed painter par excellence, Rembrandt was a Dutch painter popularly known for his simple brushstrokes and his remarkable painting style where he showed incomparable mastery in playing with light and shadows. In majority of his paintings, a mystic glow of light is focused around the center  which gradually and subtly fades off into obscure dark corners. He is remembered for his unique portraits, self-portraits and detailed interpretations and drawings of scenes from the Holy Bible.  Rembrandt&#8217;s most noted works include <em>The Night Watch, The Jewish Bried, </em><em><a target="_blank" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dana%C3%AB_(Rembrandt_painting)" target="_blank">Danaë</a> </em>and many more.</p>
<p>It is indeed interesting to know that some of the world’s greatest painters were left-handed. These artists were nothing less than sheer prodigies, who not only left their own mark in the history of art, but continue to influence artists even today.</p>

Creating a trademark of this type is called branding, and one of the most common ways that businesses develop a brand is through the use of logos and other images. These images are created through a process called graphic design. <span id="more-3716"></span></p>
<p><a target="_blank" href="http://uppercase.ie/graphic-design/" target="_blank">Graphic design</a> is a field which encompasses many different types of digital artwork. A graphic designer uses a program that allows them to create and manipulate images in order to create a finished product that can be displayed on the web or in print. These original logos and designs are very valuable to businesses, as they help to create recognizable branding which generates interest and income.</p>
<p>There are many types of graphic design software, some of which are quite expensive; however, other programs are available as freeware, meaning that they are free for the public to use. Some of these free programs offer similar functionality to software that costs upward of a thousand dollars, making the programs more economical choices for designers and businesses.</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-3718" alt="alternative photoshop gimp graphic design   The Best Free Graphic Design Programs" src="http://rushtips.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/04/alternative-photoshop-gimp-graphic-design.png" width="900" height="200" title="The Best Free Graphic Design Programs image" /></p>
<p>One popular freeware graphic design solution is <a target="_blank" href="http://www.gimp.org/" target="_blank">Gimp</a>. Gimp is well known among graphic designers for having comparable functionality to that of some of the most expensive design software. With Gimp, images can be edited, cropped, rotated and filtered. The software allows a designer to convert an image&#8217;s file type to optimize it for use on the web. In addition, the software provides tools that allow a graphic designer to create unique logos and designs that can be used in many settings. Gimp is both free and open source.</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-3719" alt="free graphic design tool   The Best Free Graphic Design Programs" src="http://rushtips.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/04/free-graphic-design-tool.png" width="426" height="85" title="The Best Free Graphic Design Programs image" /></p>
<p>Another free image editor and creator is <a target="_blank" href="http://inkscape.org/" target="_blank">Inkscape</a>. Inkscape is well known among designers for its capacity to create vector images and logos from preexisting designs as well as its ability to facilitate the design of vector logos from scratch. The free style editing that Inkscape allows can result in the creation of unique branding.</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-3717" alt="adobe graphic design tool   The Best Free Graphic Design Programs" src="http://rushtips.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/04/adobe-graphic-design-tool.png" width="196" height="157" title="The Best Free Graphic Design Programs image" /></p>
<p>Those working in the graphic design industry know that, as a rule, the <a target="_blank" href="http://rushtips.com/go/illustrator" target="_blank">Adobe</a> suite of products is considered to be the industry standard. However, Adobe&#8217;s programs tend to be very expensive. For designers who are looking for some of the image editing functionality of Adobe Photoshop without the extreme price, Adobe&#8217;s web-based <a href="http://www.photoshop.com/tools/expresseditor" target="_blank">Photoshop Express</a> allows simple image editing, filtering and conversion for free without a software download.</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-3720" alt="free graphic design tool draw plus starter edition   The Best Free Graphic Design Programs" src="http://rushtips.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/04/free-graphic-design-tool-draw-plus-starter-edition.png" width="530" height="172" title="The Best Free Graphic Design Programs image" /></p>
<p>Serif&#8217;s Draw Plus Starter Edition is another excellent freeware program which allows for the creation of vector images and logos. In addition to giving designers access to a unique set of tools which mimic analog artwork, Draw Plus is also competitive with graphics tablets, giving finished products made with the program an artistic edge.</p>
<p><img class="size-full wp-image-3721 alignleft" alt="free logo creater   The Best Free Graphic Design Programs" src="http://rushtips.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/04/free-logo-creater.png" width="68" height="74" title="The Best Free Graphic Design Programs image" /></p>
<p>Finally, another excellent freeware graphics solution is <a target="_blank" href="https://www.fatpaint.com/" target="_blank">Fatpaint</a>. Much like the aforementioned programs, Fatpaint does an excellent job of mimicking features offered by more expensive programs. The program specializes in logo design, making it an excellent choice for designers who are working towards the creation of unique branding.</p>
<p>As a business owner, hiring a graphic designer as a part of your marketing efforts is a wise financial strategy. Many designers will work freelance, so paying an additional full time salary is unnecessary. A talented designer can easily generate logos and branding images that will make your business marketable and memorable.</p>
<p>If hiring outside the company is not an option, the vast offerings of free design software combined with the many tutorials available on the web make it possible for a self-motivated and artistic individual within the business to learn graphic design and improve the branding of the business, exponentially expanding marketing success.</p>

In this post we are publishing 34 beautiful and creative logo designs which will show you how to use a female character as a main idea of the logo design. You will also see that many designers tend to use  “feminine” elements like flowers, hearts, dresses, or any other parts of female clothing; images of lips and subtle “romantic” colors such as red and pink in their logos.</p>

You can then reason out that all of the top brands share some similarities in the way that they grew to be successful.<span id="more-3665"></span></p>
<p>There&#8217;s no single reason that these businesses grew to be as successful as they are now. They climbed to the top through smart decisions made on a daily basis. While all of those daily decisions have affected the way that customers view these brands, there is one that stands out above the rest: making the decision to use a certain style of logo.</p>
<p>The one piece of media that gets posted on everything a business does is a logo, and it affects how a customer thinks about a business. That means the decision to purchase from a certain company can be affected solely by the type of logo that a business has decided to use. What makes the logos that the top brands use so powerful? Was it the choice of color, the font or the inclusion of text in a logo that made it so powerful?</p>

This is obviously so you don&#8217;t have to redo the design multiple times if you want to change something. Even though you&#8217;ve made a sketch, sometimes you find that you want to add or change something while creating the final design; well, maybe not with the car, but at least with digital designs. <span id="more-3648"></span></p>
<p>There are a number of great <a title="Popular Sketching Tools To Help You Get Started" href="http://rushtips.com/great-tips-of-the-most-essential-sketching-tools" target="_blank">sketch tools</a> that will make your sketch unique. You probably have your own favorite tools &#8211; the ones that just make sense when you start sketching. Some designs are way easier to create if you have the right tools.</p>
<p>I&#8217;m a huge fan of typography; it makes words more interesting, and with a great typography design &#8211; it can leave a completely different impact than it would with a normal font.</p>
<p>I&#8217;ve put together a collection of few awesome typography sketches, so if you&#8217;re up of some inspiration, have at it.</p>

Are you ready for it?<br />
<span id="more-3638"></span></p>
<p>A bunch of website are taking part of the April fools day. I just got an email from Razer, where they introduced a new <a href="http://rushtips.com/go/naga" target="_blank" rel="external nofollow">Naga</a> mouse with a build in phone, made me laugh. I also noticed that there are 41 visistors from the International Space Station on Rushtips.com.</p>
<h2>Introducing Google Nose</h2>
<p>Google is also introducing a new service called <a target="_blank" href="http://www.google.com/landing/nose/" target="_blank">Google Nose</a>. It&#8217;s currently in the Beta stage, but with it you can discover new smells from all over the world. I wonder if this technology is the foundation that will one day bring us a real <a target="_blank" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Smell-O-Vision" target="_blank">Smell-0-Vision</a> TV.</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-large wp-image-3640" alt="google nose beta april fools joke 610x446   Introducing the Google Nose" src="http://rushtips.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/04/google-nose-beta-april-fools-joke-610x446.png" width="610" height="446" title="Introducing the Google Nose image" /></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><iframe src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/VFbYadm_mrw" height="315" width="560" allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0"></iframe></p>
<h2>International Space Station Visitors</h2>
<p>Now, I&#8217;m not sure how many people are on that space station, but I don&#8217;t think 41 of them would visit this website &#8220;out of the blue&#8221;.</p>

If you&#8217;re just starting out with typography, you might get put off by all the different types of styles, and compositions &#8211; don&#8217;t be. Just find a font you like, and try to recreate it.<span id="more-3599"></span></p>
<p>Here are a few typography designs to get you started. Ranging from product design, to posters, to wood carvings. If you want to get better at typography, I suggest you try to recreate one of these designs on paper, or if you have a tablet &#8211; make a digital design.</p>

One thing website experts know is that a slow loading website has a hard time attracting repeat traffic. There are some tried and true tips that amateur web designer or those who are only interested in programming their first blog. To create a website with the greatest potential of driving attention to your site, the best bet is to pay attention to the practices of the professionals.<span id="more-3567"></span></p>
<h3>Code For The Unknown</h3>
<p><img class="size-full wp-image-3586 alignleft" alt="13239069 s   How The Professionals Streamline Webpages" src="http://rushtips.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/03/13239069_s.jpg" width="400" height="263" title="How The Professionals Streamline Webpages image" /></p>
<p>When consumers want the fastest Internet connection, they will get in touch with their local high-speed DSL provider or <a target="_blank" href="http://www.hughesnetinternet.net/contact-hughesnet.html" target="_blank">contact HughesNet Internet services</a>. But not everyone can afford, or wants, the fastest services available. When you design your website, always design it so that it can load on any dial-up or traditionally slow Internet service. Keep your background images to a minimum, utilize standard fonts when possible and avoid utilizing complicated programming language. Some websites will need to be written for high-speed Internet out of necessity. But if you can plan for the slowest possible connection, then that is always best.</p>
<p>Coding languages that have traditionally been used for websites are HTML, PHP, JQuery, CSS and JavaScript. Of course every few years, there’s improvements in the language, but the basics never change. For any website that requires the user to input sensitive information, it is recommended that you use MYSQL or another secure language. Most e-commerce sites these days use a Secure Socket Layer and a very secure coding language to ensure their clients information does not accidentally become available to the general public or the next undergraduate hacking genius.</p>
<h3>Watch Your Image Resolution</h3>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-3582" alt="streamline webpages full res low res img   How The Professionals Streamline Webpages" src="http://rushtips.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/03/streamline-webpages-full-res-low-res-img.png" width="640" height="151" title="How The Professionals Streamline Webpages image" /></p>
<p>Website developers will make the mistake of thinking that their sites need to have high-definition images that look crystal clear. Most websites utilize images with lower resolutions because they look great on the Internet and the lower resolution means that the image will load faster. If you want to give the visitor the option of seeing a larger and clearer version of a particular image, then offer the option to click on the image on the site to see the better image. JQuery is probably the best option for accomplishing this goal. You can find hundreds of websites with free plugins, or you just check out <a target="_blank" title="" href="http://jquery.com/">jQuery.com</a>. But, your site will look just fine with standard resolution.</p>
<h3>Avoid Animated Images And Flash</h3>
<p>Some people love the look of animated images all over a website, but those <a target="_blank" title="" href="http://combustionlogic.com/photoshpclass/animgif.htm">animated GIF images</a> take up a lot of room in your hosting account and they slow down your page. Flash movies and introductions are also extremely popular and effective, but they can also slow down your site&#8217;s load time. Animated GIFs and flash presentations should be avoided unless they are absolutely essential. If you make a flash presentation a separate link that users can click on, then your visitors will still be able to see the presentation without slowing down your website. A great substitute for Flash is HTML 5, it’s easier to code and provides a faster load time.</p>
<h3>Monitor Your Page Constantly</h3>
<p>It can happen that your page coding gets corrupted and creates a conflict or error when it tries to load. Some of your internal links may go bad or the image you are linked to suddenly disappears. All of these events are common when it comes to developing websites, and they can also slow your page way down. A good website developer keeps a close eye on his pages and always makes repairs and updates that will keep the site running smoothly.</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-large wp-image-3584" alt="pingdom test load time website1 952x298   How The Professionals Streamline Webpages" src="http://rushtips.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/03/pingdom-test-load-time-website1-952x298.png" width="952" height="298" title="How The Professionals Streamline Webpages image" /></p>
<p>There are a lot of factors that will determine just how fast your website pages will load. If you want to keep the traffic flowing to your website, then you need to make sure that it is always working as efficiently as possible.</p>

But the question you should ask yourself is whether you are using this browser to its complete benefit. Chrome features a full-bodied extension system that is worth exploring and testing. This is one reason Google Chrome now claims to be the most popular browser in the world. Here is a look at 10 Chrome extensions designers must have.<span id="more-3560"></span></p>
<h3>1. <a target="_blank" href="https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/benchwarmer-dribbble-tab/lhdjhhpjicomphhjpehdhjenbaamdpnn" target="_blank">Benchwarmer</a></h3>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-3561" alt="benchwarmer google chrome extension   10 Chrome Extensions Web Designers Must Have" src="http://rushtips.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/03/benchwarmer-google-chrome-extension.png" width="500" height="250" title="10 Chrome Extensions Web Designers Must Have image" /><br />
This is a smart Chrome extension that substitutes the &#8220;New Tab&#8221; screen with 6 shots from dribble, which is an invite-only, premium community of designers sharing what they are working on at present, in the elevated altar of pixel-perfection. After installation, Benchwarmer defaults to the newest top-rated shots, but you can use a gear symbol to customize this view.</p>
<h3>2. <a target="_blank" href="http://www.colorzilla.com/chrome/" target="_blank">ColorZilla</a></h3>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-3563" alt="colorzilla for chrome   10 Chrome Extensions Web Designers Must Have" src="http://rushtips.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/03/colorzilla-for-chrome.png" width="280" height="296" title="10 Chrome Extensions Web Designers Must Have image" /></p>
<p>When ColorZilla was launched for Firefox, it was among the initial browser-based color pickers obtainable. The certified port for Chrome is equally useful and comprises an eye dropper, gradient generator and color picker, alongside extra advanced color tools.</p>
<h3>3. <a target="_blank" href="https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/whatfont/jabopobgcpjmedljpbcaablpmlmfcogm" target="_blank">WhatFont</a></h3>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-3564" alt="whatfont chrome extension   10 Chrome Extensions Web Designers Must Have" src="http://rushtips.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/03/whatfont-chrome-extension.png" width="500" height="400" title="10 Chrome Extensions Web Designers Must Have image" /></p>
<p>WhatFont identifies the fonts utilized on a certain webpage and offers in-depth details, like the font family and size, along with weight, line height and color. Besides the web secure fonts, it senses the services utilized to serve the font and sustains Google Web Fonts and Typekit. With this extension, you do not need to right-click to view source.</p>
<h3>4. <a target="_blank" href="https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/screen-capture-by-google/cpngackimfmofbokmjmljamhdncknpmg" target="_blank">Screen Capture</a></h3>
<p>This is an authorized Google extension that quickly captures noticeable sections of pages, noticeable objects, whole pages and drawn assortments as PNG files. Every photograph can be amended and interpreted, and highlighting, arrows and redacting, lines and addition of text are completely supported.</p>
<h3>5. <a target="_blank" href="http://evernote.com/webclipper/" target="_blank">Evernote Web Clipper</a></h3>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-3565" alt="hero webclipper chrome   10 Chrome Extensions Web Designers Must Have" src="http://rushtips.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/03/hero_webclipper-chrome.png" width="462" height="324" title="10 Chrome Extensions Web Designers Must Have image" /></p>
<p>As you spend most of your time with a web browser, cataloging and storing information effortlessly becomes important. Google Chrome&#8217;s Evernote Web Clipper is essential in web design as it makes it fast and simple to store almost anything you get online in your account in Evernote which includes selected text, links, PDFs, images, articles and even whole webpages.</p>
<h3>6. <a target="_blank" href="https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/pixlr-editor/piokfbnfppkeffcnnfakeoakbpppdedk" target="_blank">Pixlr Editor</a></h3>
<p>This is a completely featured photograph editor obtainable straight in your browser. It has sharing interface similar to Adobe Photoshop, learning arc is low and full of abilities you would just usually get in an app in desktop. The fast, thoughtfully organized, intuitive interface means fast edits are easy.</p>
<h3>7. <a target="_blank" href="https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/measureit/pokhcahijjfkdccinalifdifljglhclm?hl=en" target="_blank">Measurelt</a></h3>
<p>With this extension, draw out the ruler that shows the arrangement and actual pixel height and width dimensions of any chosen aspect on a webpage. Measurelt is an especially helpful tool in website designing and developing. To use it, just click the ruler and drag it out to find the dimensions of an element quickly and easily.</p>
<h3>8. <a target="_blank" href="https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/palette-for-chrome/oolpphfmdmjbojolagcbgdemojhcnlod" target="_blank">Palette</a></h3>
<p>Colors take up a vital role in web design, and creating the perfect palette can be challenging. However, this particular task can be much more efficient if you have an extension like Palette within your reach.</p>
<h3>9. <a target="_blank" href="https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/yet-another-lorem-ipsum-g/jffcmkkfbampimhpimhofhhkanhflfce" target="_blank">Yet Another Lorem Ipsum Generator</a></h3>
<p>Dummy text could be helpful when testing typography or content. If you do not use alternatives, you should attempt Yet Another Lorem Ipsum Generator. This extension will generate text, dates, titles and dummy web addresses and email, with the alternatives available through the toolbar button.</p>
<h3>10. <a target="_blank" href="https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/pendule/gbkffbkamcejhkcaocmkdeiiccpmjfdi" target="_blank">Pendule</a></h3>
<p>Pendule harmonizes the fitted developer tools of Google Chrome and makes it easy to edit websites like viewing CSS, reloading CSS, viewing JavaScript, and disabling styles among others. This extension itself is quick and responsive, unobtrusive, featuring a widespread toolset.</p>
