PhotoshopWatercolour paintings are a hugely popular art style that can be incorporated into your design projects, but you don't need to be a master artist to create such imagery when Adobe Photoshop can produce realistic watercolour effects with a cocktail of built-in filters. In today's tutorial I take you through a range of settings that will convert any photograph into a hand-made watercolour style painting.
In this tutorial, Fabio will show you how to create a deconstructed image using a pattern made out of cubes.
Photoshop is a powerful software. It gives you full control on manipulating pixels. It's younger brother, Illustrator, has same quality in handling vector. In this tutorial, we are going to use both software to draw a realistic motorbike helmet from scratch.

Hovering your finger over the big red "launch" button for your new website? Hold off for just a second (or 660 of them, rather).

In today's Whiteboard Friday, Rand covers five big boxes you need to check off before finally setting that site live.
As many of you know, I am a big fan of web performance. But I also don't think that it should or have to compromise design. There is always a good balance in the middle. The other day I was on GitHub's blog and was really digging their font! It was super easy to read. So I dug into the properties with Chrome Devtools and saw that they were using a system font stack. So today I want to show you how to use a system font stack on your WordPress site.
In this article, it takes a look at some of the primary web design photography trends we have seen so far this year.
Custom scrollbars are getting popular, and you might have come across websites that have unique scrollbars, making the sites feel and look different. There are basically a few ways to implement a custom scrollbar. In this tutorial we will be using CSS3, which is the most straightforward way. However, there are jQuery plugins that can help with customizing scrollbar, but I do not like to add more JavaScript to my website. If you are a designer, photographer or you just want your website to have a cool scrollbar, go ahead with the jQuery plugins.
It's easy to just go ahead and update your WordPress website, your theme, and plugin files by yourself. You just hit the "update" button three times and the job is, well… mostly done.You think that.
