I’ve started doing more web design work lately and as such am in frequent need of decent color palettes for my sites. Unfortunately I’m not keen on developing them myself. I can tell which ones I like and which ones I don’t but creating the palette is difficult for me. Luckily there are people out there that are good at blending colors together so they look good. I did a quick search and came up with a nice site that I really like. Its not spammy and it has tons of palettes to choose from. They are searchable and easily display the hex for each color in the palette so its a simple matter of copy and paste into my css file. Colour Lovers is the site and I suggest you take a look if you’re interested in finding some good color palettes.

I was working on a site design for a project of mine and had a specific font in mind for part of it. I googled around and had some trouble finding a decent site with free fonts until I found DaFont.com. This site has hundreds of free true type fonts you can download. It was painstaking to manually searching through all these fonts for what I was looking for but I eventually found it. At least this site had enough fonts for me to look through to find what I was looking for and they’re all free too.
