Graphic Design Freebies & Resources

If you are a webmaster or trying to be one, LOL here is a good freebie and resource website from Franz Jeitz called fudgegraphics. I gather that some of these freebies are from Franz himself, while some are sourced from other graphic design websites. Yes, there are many.

It’s enough to say that all those graphic and vector freebies offered here on fudgegraphics by Franz himself or other designers are of high quality and wouldn’t disappoint. Like other similar websites and blogs, fudgegraphics offers brushes, vectors, wallpapers, textures, backgrounds, icons, prints, photos, etc, in high resolution.

Check out what is available and check back often because the site is updated regularly with freebies.

Beautiful Digital Scrapbooking Freebies

I know I have already featured way too many websites that offer digital scrapbooking freebies. But what to do when the stuff I come across gets better and better?

This isn’t to say that the old websites that I feature are no longer good. In fact, I believe most webmasters do update their sites fairly regularly too because they are passionate about their craft.

Retrodiva Designs, if you click on the link I have provided, has an awesome range of freebies, I tell you, even though I am not a digital scrapbooker, I feel like downloading them all!

Check them out if you have been looking for digital scrapbooking freebies. These are just so beautiful words fail me! As a reminder, read the terms of use first before downloading and do make sure to provide credit where it is due.

Free Decorative Lettering Sets

While surfing around randomly looking for ideas for my web project, I chanced upon this beautiful freebie site called Renny’s Niche. I tell you, the website address is really not that easy to type out and one could easily misspell and get the wrong site!

What Renny is giving away is sets of decorative lettering or initials that you can use, like for example, to format the first letter of your paragraph much like story books of the old days. Of course, there are also many uses of these decorative lettering and it is up to how creative you are to make the full use of them!

Renny allows us to download these lettering sets in .zip format but remember, these are for private individual use only, not for commercial use. Still, if you were to use them for your web project, I would expect you to provide a link back to Renny’s Niche. What do you think?

Winning Luck

It’s funny that running two freebies and contest blogs, one of the most common questions I get asked is if I myself win anything. Yes, I have won many premiums and lesser prizes; I have also won cash prizes and holiday trips. One thing that I won that proves to be the most useful was the Apply iPhone 2G. Of course, I would love to upgrade it to iPhone 3G but only if I won it.

So far, I haven’t won anything really major and am still waiting for my turn to win a house or at least a car. I believe that when we win, no matter if the prize was just a CD or DVD or cash from hitting the jackpot at the casino, we must have Lady Luck smiling upon us.

I know that many people do not believe in luck but you know, I believe that if the prize is yours, you don’t have to submit numerous entries. One would suffice!

Host Free Games On Your Blog or Website

As a webmaster of various sites and blogs, I try to make my work easier by looking for free content. Of course, I do not copy content from other websites and neither do I have guest bloggers. I try to look for these freebies because I KNOW that other webmasters would find them useful.

Today, I found this games website, 2D Play, which has plenty of free web based games that we could play without having to register with the website or download any file at all. Naturally, we do not even have to provide and credit card details. Just so you know, this website is ad-supported but that is fine with me.

2D Play is different from other games websites in the sense that if you have a blog or website, you can host 2D Play games so that your visitors could play 2D Play games right from your site! How awesome is that?

Pro Player

My friend, Steve, was laid off recently. He joked that he expected it and was not surprised that he got the axe. Those who still have jobs in this bad time are the ones who surprised him! It’s funny that he could make light joke of the situation but then this guy has always been happy go lucky.

Steve told me that since the employment market is so poor right now, he might as well take a break and enjoy it while it lasts before he goes searching for a job. He is confident that he would be able to find something that he likes to do when the economy turns around.

Meanwhile, Steve says he will try his luck in online casinos. He said that he watched a movie recently where the lead character was a professional player and if he could earn some pocket money playing games online, he would forget about looking for a job. He doesn’t even need to turn pro! I wish I was as confident as him!

Hello Kitty Freebies

Gosh, I thought I am too old to love cute stuff anymore and then when I chanced upon this website of Hello Kitty, I fall in love with her all over again! You see, I grew up with Hello Kitty and had plenty of Hello Kitty collectibles as well. I think part of the reason many of us girls love Hello Kitty was because of all the pink!

Today, I chanced upon the website of Sanrio, which owns Hello Kitty and am glad to say that there are some freebies and many activities to play. I know, these were made to cater to children but I think parents could help the children to play as well, right? These would make awesome family activities.

Check out the website of Sanrio. Hello Kitty is so sweet!
