         <description>Photoshop tutorial instructions - Draw a logo having a Fish, water bubbles and water waves.

Let's make a Fish, water bubbles and water waves in a Glass Bowl. In this tutorial I have used the photoshop Tools like pen Tool, Gradient Tool, Elliptical Marquee Tool, Brush Tool. I have also tried to use some new features like transform selection and contract selection.&lt;img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/freewebhowto/~4/lSDtnpXV65M" height="1" width="1"/&gt;</description>

         <title>How to Transformers Logo</title>
         <link>http://freewebhowto.com/publ/12-1-0-528</link>
         <description>Transformers logo can be easily created by you! Have doubts about it? Just read this tutorial and learn how to do it!

This is how it all started for me. I went to the cinema not long ago and watched the "Transformers". What a movie! I was impressed by the effects and decided to create a tutorial - How to Draw the Logotype.

I used the emblem from the official site as a desktop wallpaper for a long time, but after it became boring I decided to create my own logo. Here is how I created an example of Transformers logo. .

Open Photoshop. Create a new document 400x400 px and begin to draw the Transformers logo. The first part is the most tedious - the drawing of the logo itself. I've chosen Decepticons.&lt;img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/freewebhowto/~4/blyO6-Xyl7U" height="1" width="1"/&gt;</description>

         <title>How to design your own font</title>
         <link>http://freewebhowto.com/publ/14-1-0-527</link>
         <description>Before you begin, you're going to need at least the following:

 * Fontographer 4.1 (procedures are similar for earlier versions)
 * Some version of Photoshop (3.0+)
 * Some kind of way to get some images of letters. (That means this might not work if you can't draw. ) 

Note that I can't help you in getting any of these!&lt;img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/freewebhowto/~4/e3aY3Cjktow" height="1" width="1"/&gt;</description>

         <description>&lt;div class="text"&gt;&lt;p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;It can be an interesting experience looking around at websites in
particular industries to identify trends and see how they differ from
those in other industries. In this article, we’ll take a look at the
websites of major motion pictures to see what types of websites are
being created. Movies are a big part of the entertainment industry, and
in recent years their websites have become increasingly critical to
their overall success.&lt;/p&gt;

         <title>More Web Design Trends For 2009</title>
         <link>http://freewebhowto.com/board/6-1-0-90</link>
         <description>&lt;div class="text"&gt;&lt;p&gt;This post presents &lt;strong&gt;design trends for 2009 in terms of layouts, visual approaches and design elements&lt;/strong&gt;.
Please notice that this post showcases trends and developments that
were extensively covered in our previous articles (e.g. handwriting,
retro and vintage etc.) and therefore weren’t covered in this post
(they are all linked in the overview, so feel free to explore these
single posts as well). Did you miss any recent development in this
overview? Let us know in the comments!&lt;/p&gt;

         <title>50 Beautiful And User-Friendly Navigation Menus</title>
         <link>http://freewebhowto.com/board/6-1-0-89</link>
         <description>&lt;div class="teaser_img"&gt;&lt;div class="text"&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;By Matt Cronin&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Usability is an essential goal of any website, and usable navigation
is something every website needs. It determines where users are led and
how they interact with the website. Without usable navigation, content
becomes all but useless. Menus need to be simple enough for the user to
understand, but also contain the elements necessary to guide the user
through the website — with some creativity and good design thrown in.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Below we present over &lt;strong&gt;50 excellent navigation menus&lt;/strong&gt;
— we feature CSS-based design solutions, CSS+JavaScript-based menus and
Flash-designs. However, they all have something in common: they are
user-friendly yet creative and perfectly fit to the style of their
respective websites.&lt;/p&gt;

         <title>Looking Back On 2008 With Top Web Designers</title>
         <link>http://freewebhowto.com/board/8-1-0-87</link>
         <description>&lt;div class="teaser_img"&gt;&lt;img alt="Looking Back On 2008 With Top Web Designers - Tutorial - FreeWebHowTo.com"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="text"&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;By Steven Snell&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The &lt;strong&gt;start of a new year&lt;/strong&gt; is often a time of
reflection on the past year, both personally and professionally, as
well as a time to look forward to the year ahead. With that in mind, we
thought it would be interesting to do a New Year’s group interview with
a number of top designers and developers. We put together a big list of
questions and posed two in particular to each of the participants.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;We think you’ll enjoy the insight this panel provides into 2008 and
2009. There’s a wide variety of topics covered, including favorite
resources, trend predictions, business lessons learned, upcoming events
for 2009 and more. Let’s take a look at a &lt;strong&gt;large group interview with top web designers&lt;/strong&gt; that takes a look back on 2008 and presents some predictions for the year 2009.&lt;/p&gt;

         <title>Web Design Trends For 2009</title>
         <link>http://freewebhowto.com/board/6-1-0-86</link>
         <description>&lt;div class="teaser_img"&gt;&lt;img alt="Web Design Trends For 2009 - Tutorial - FreeWebHowTo.com"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="text"&gt;&lt;p&gt;We Web designers are a fickle lot. We love to experiment with
things. We love to observe how people interact with our work. And we
love to try out unusual design approaches that might possibly go
mainstream and become a classic approach. As a result, new design
approaches come up, and as more and more designers notice them and make
use of them, new trends emerge.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Over the last months, we’ve analyzed numerous Web designs, observing
emerging trends and weighing the merits of numerous design decisions
and coding solutions. In this post, we present &lt;strong&gt;Web design trends for 2009&lt;/strong&gt;:
recent developments, new design elements and new graphic approaches. We
also discuss situations in which these trends can be used and present
some beautiful examples. Did you miss any recent development in this
overview? Let us know in the comments!&lt;/p&gt;

         <title>Favicon Episode 7</title>
         <link>http://freewebhowto.com/board/6-1-0-85</link>
         <description>&lt;div class="text"&gt;&lt;p&gt;Every now and again we showcase &lt;strong&gt;beautiful favicons&lt;/strong&gt;
— tiny pieces of art you’ll usually find in your browser’s address bar
or when searching through your bookmarks. Favicons are important as
they provide visual indicators to visitors and help them to easily
associate the content with a bookmark in their browser. Besides,
favicons are just nice to look at and there are way too many sites
which don’t make use of them. We like to change things. Which is why
here is the 7th episode of the favicons series.&lt;/p&gt;

         <title>Creative Favicons: When Small Is Beautiful</title>
         <link>http://freewebhowto.com/board/6-1-0-84</link>
         <description>&lt;div class="text"&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;We love creative favicons.&lt;/strong&gt; Their beauty lies in the
approach a designer has chosen to put something really unique inside of
the 16×16px box. Designing favicons, it’s necessary to work with
miniature images, and every extra pixel can be the wrong one. A good
favicon is original, beautiful and - in best case - fits to the
logotype and color schemes used in the web-site. Creating them is a
challenge not every designer is able to cope with. It’s hard, but not
impossible. In fact, many &lt;strong&gt;creative solutions&lt;/strong&gt; are possible, but it’s damn hard to come up with some of them once you need them.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;

         <title>Favicons Episode 5: The Delicate Beauties</title>
         <link>http://freewebhowto.com/board/6-1-0-82</link>
         <description>&lt;div class="text"&gt;&lt;p&gt;The New Year’s Eve is a tricky time for designers. Some of us
eagerly analyze deadlines, define milestones and refine the time
schedule for the upcoming year. The other ones discover the need to
update footers and copyright statements on their web-sites (by the way,
have you actually replaced “2007″ with “2008″ in your footer?). Still,
even on the January 1&lt;sup&gt;st&lt;/sup&gt; passionate designers continue to &lt;strong&gt;strive for inspiration&lt;/strong&gt; in order to come up with fresh ideas for the ongoing projects.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;If the latter is your case, is there really a better way to find the inspiration rather than in &lt;strong&gt;a fine gallery of excellent favicons&lt;/strong&gt;
- our not that secret and very lively passion? We’ve written a lot
about favicons in the previous articles. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Please notice that the favicons weren’t chosen simply because of
their beauty; it’s been important to us that the favicon perfectly fits
to the overall site design. All favicons are linked to the sites where
they are used — you can click on them to get more insights into how
favicon design can be related to the layout design.&lt;/p&gt;
