How to Add a Favicon to your Site

Wednesday, April 28, 2010 1 comments
A screenshot of English Wikipedia in Firefox o...Image via Wikipedia












A favicon is a graphic image (icon) associated with a particular Web page and/or Web site. Many recent user agents (such as graphical browsers and newsreaders) display them as a visual reminder of the Web site identity in the address bar or in tabs. The wikipedia includes an article about favicons [FAVICON-WIKIPEDIA].

To add a favicon to your Web site, you'll need both an image and a method for specifying that the image is to be used as a favicon. This document explains the method preferred by W3C for specifying the favicon. There is another common method that is illustrated below, with an explanation of why that method is inconsistent with some principles of Web architecture. Both methods only apply to HTML and XHTML, one of the limitations discussed below.

Visual Paths

Wednesday, April 21, 2010 0 comments


Help the viewer's eye move through your image by paying attention to visual paths.

If we put too much randomly-placed visual information into an image, our audience doesn’t know where to look. The eye wanders about the image, and eventually falls off the edge without being really engaged. What we need to do is guide the viewers’ eye by placing visual paths of interest in our art. Unless you’re specifically aware of, and looking for visual paths you might not even be aware they’re there. But they’re often the hidden reason we “get” some images and not others.

How to Make a Door Paneling Effect in Adobe Illustrator

Friday, April 16, 2010 0 comments
The vector graphics software package Adobe Illustrator does not have a wood grain effect to make door paneling in one step. However, you can use Adobe Illustrator's shape, fill and pencil tools to create your own door paneling effect and use a clipping mask to transfer the effect to other objects. The benefit of creating the door paneling effect in Illustrator is that the object with this effect can be resized and stretched and still retain its sharpness, because it is a vector graphic.

Perspective

Wednesday, April 14, 2010 0 comments














A Different Approach Using Approximation And Relative Scaling

Perspective is the illusion of three-dimensional space created in a two-dimensional image when objects grow consistently smaller as they move away from the viewer towards the horizon. This article will walk you through a method for setting up a calibrated two-point perspective in Illustrator. Our example illustration is a gallery reception where several famous iStock illustrators are displaying their creations. The exercise will teach you the technical side of building accurate perspective in Illustrator, and hopefully inspire designers by showing how useful these source images from the iStock vector collection are for filling your new perspective environment.

Develop A Personal Palette

Wednesday, March 10, 2010 0 comments

Artists and illustrators often talk about a “signature style.” It’s that look, that feel, that je ne sais quois that makes a person’s work instantly recognizable. We could spend all day analyzing styles and what makes them unique, but this articles’s focus is color. Specifically, creating a palette of color to call your own.

Color is very personal, and just as our “palette” for certain tastes is not quite the same as anybody else’s, we all see color differently. As you mature as an illustrator, you become more adept at mixing color and developing a palette all your own. Newbies tend to use “straight out of the tube” color. That is, the colors that come pre-loaded every time you start your drawing software.

Vectors for the Web – Part 1

Wednesday, March 3, 2010 0 comments

Did you know that you can use iStock vector illustrations for Web graphics? “Well sure,” you say, “every vector comes with a hi-res raster file, and I just open that in Photoshop, resize it, and slap it on my Web page.” But using the actual vector may give you even more options and better results. In this first of two articles, we’ll show you why. And how.

Save Time with Templates

Wednesday, February 24, 2010 0 comments

Do you ever find yourself starting a new illustration, then spending 10 minutes changing the document size, color mode, the styles, the swatches et al? Ad nauseam? And by the time you get it all set up, your creative juice is about to run dry. Am I right?

If that is the case, Templates are for you. Spend some time creating a template for yourself, and then when you’re ready to roll, all you need to think about is your idea and the blank canvas in front of you.

Templates not only save you time, but they help maintain consistency in your work. With templates you can create a personal color palette and have it at the ready every time you begin to work. But that’s not all. Templates can store swatches, styles, brushes, actions, graphs — just about anything you use over and over.
