Special Characters Keyboard Shortcuts
Here in New York, Jennie has been giving us daily tutorials on keyboard shortcuts. Just because Gene and I like to make a bullet by drawing it out or by using dingbats, doesn't mean it is incorrect. However, it IS faster with the shortcuts, so, to enlighten everyone, here is a link to all the keyboard shortcuts for special characters. Make sure to make use of the really important ones like the dagger and the section sign. Enjoy!

Tip Sheet on Special Characters


PS-- There will also be a link to this in the Resource section.

My New Favorite Site
http://justcreativedesign.com/

A couple of really good articles about logo design under Popular Articles. Also some good content in the Web Design category.

Most Overused Ideas in Design
This is the first of a six-part series. Don't let me catch anyone using any of these in their designs.

Marketing Sites
Congrats, guys! Those were a tough group of sites, but I'm impressed with the results. In particular, I love the placement of the leaderboard. Placing it closer to the content while still close to the nav was a great idea. I showed it to someone else in the industry and they mentioned that they quadrupled Google revenue after they did the same thing. So, good move! I'm glad to see it make it into NFM's concepts as well. Oops... looks like they reversed the launch. Maybe my plans to congratulate you jinxed it!
