Two for One! Design Magic
Alright! I never had a childhood dream to become a magician, but the internet has changed many things in my life. Here is the wonderfulness that is Vector Magic. And boy, is it a doozy.
Using Vector Magic
Say your client send you this little, ugly, pixelated gif of their logo, and expect you to plaster it all over thier website and print collateral... in all different sizes. Now, instead of hounding them day and night until you can explain the difference between a .gif and an .eps, or any other format for that matter... you can make it yourself!
The results are pretty amazing, and produce a 100% editable vector .eps in mere seconds! Photographs? Sure! Want to make it edgy with maybe only three colors to spruce up your myspace persona? No problem! Its... Vector Magic!
Vector Magic Resources
And now for another secret from the vaults of my graphic design inspiration. This site has single handedly introduced me to more online design sites, portfolios, and random stuff than any other site. Its constantly amassing new content, so there is never a dull moment. Read, scroll, refresh! *Bam! something new and pretty to look at.
One cool resource Vector introduced me to is 
link, providing a collection of photographs to help spark some new ideas.
I would highly recommend this resource to any designer looking for a quick and easy fix, or some help getting those creative juices working.
