10 design tools that’ll make you look awesome

Today’s Tutorial Tuesday is a page of amazing – and little known – resources

Hi everybody. Today, I’ve decided to take a break from video creation and show you a few resources I’ve found (and am starting to use) on my own projects.
I’m not affiliated with any of these people or companies, just using their services.

I thought you’d benefit from them as well.

Take a look – and leave any comments or questions below!

Type Scale
http://type-scale.com

It’s a ‘visual types scaler’ for creating scaled text for your web designs.

 

Animatron
http://www.animatron.com

Is a straightforward and powerful tool for building HTML5 animations and interactive content.

 

The Graphics Creator

Of course! This is a no-brainer.

https://laughingbirdsoftware.com

Create your own high-quality graphics in minutes… literally!

And you can actually use many of the other products listed in this article along with it.

Duo Web Browser
http://plesk.com

 

Adaptive Backgrounds

This one is interesting in that it takes a dominant color from an image on your site, and sets the background to match it.

 

Layers Control
http://madebyvadim.com/layrs/

This is a FREE photoshop extension… a collection of 7 scripts that make tedious jobs easier

 

Origami version 1.4
https://facebook.github.io/origami/

if you’re an app programmer (or want to see how the programmers do it) check this out. It’s a free design “prototyping” toolkit.

 

Social Kit
http://socialkit.madebysource.com/

is a Photoshop plugin for creating cover images, profile pictures, ad banners and more for various social platforms

 

ReadyMag
https://readymag.com/
