As an avid cook, I love to try new recipes, and as a passionate designer I enjoy trying new styles and techniques. My love of cooking has inspired me to correlate the two very different disciplines, cooking and web design. Cooking takes patience and skills, as well as practice time where you may get things wrong, but you can learn from your mistakes and improve your skillset for the future. Web design is much the same way. Many cooking principles can be applied to web design to offer inspiration and guidance when creating a new site. Today we’ll look at several cooking ideas and see how they can apply to the web as well.

You may be thinking, “It’s way too early to start thinking about the holidays!” But October is actually the perfect time to start planning. As many of you know sending out a holiday card is a great way to show your clients appreciation for their business. It’s also a great way to remind them about your services, and hopefully spark some interest in doing more business with you. If you’re creating a custom card (which creates a great extra special touch), you have to get them designed, printed, get your list together, and then stuff all your envelopes. That’s why you want to start early, so you’re all set to enjoy the holidays by the end of November!

At Snoack Studios we love to bring our clients and readers ideas and resources on the newest technology and tools out there. Yogile is one of those great new services we’d like to tell you about because we think it’s pretty neat. You’ve likely all heard (and maybe used) some of the photo sharing services available on the web. This one is different, because it’s free, it’s easy to collaborate and share, it’s simple to use and it isn’t loaded with tons of stuff you don’t need.
Check it out at yogile.com.

It’s my birthday (shameless self promotion)! For a special birthday post (and not intended to be a gift request!), I thought I would compile a list of fun and functional gifts for the designer in your life. Most of these are just for fun but worthy of sporting around town or displaying in your office. Enjoy! read more
Teamwork: When we all work together, we all win together.
Who doesn’t love these awesome motivational posters in classrooms and business offices that decorate the walls in an effort to promote positive energy? They usually have some fun photography shot with people holding hands or animals working together and then a large word like “Teamwork.” Then underneath that you find a priceless quote about working together. Although they may be cheesy and the center point of a lot of ridicule, I think we can find some wisdom and business lessons from these motivational posters. read more
