I’m always amazed at all the cool places in Arizona. That really hit home when I read a recent piece by Scott Bourne titled 13 Places Every Landscape Photographer Should See Before They Die. He lists his thirteen best and four of them are here in Arizona. I...

When I saw the name of today’s fonts, I immediately thought back to a Saturday Night Live sketch from the early years. The good news is the Land Shark fonts won’t be ringing your doorbell and trying to eat you. What you will find is eight different weights...
A few months back I told you about Caslon Antique. Today is a very similar font family named Casablanca Antique. One of the main differences between the two is Casablanca Antique comes in Light, Regular, Medium, Bold and Heavy versions. If you are a fan of antique...
We’ve just added another collection to Textures Unleashed. This collection has a total of 118 unique seamless textures in the categories of Floor & Wall, Ancient Civilization and Bricks. Remember each of these textures is seamless so they can be tiled to any...

Typically when I talk about a font, I make sure you can download it. The Leg Hair Font is an exception to that rule as it isn’t a computer-based font. I’ll give credit to the person behind the font as it is really creative. All I can suggest you do is read...
A large part of my day involves having either a CorelDRAW or Corel PHOTO-PAINT file open. Rarely do I run either program full screen as I have all kinds of software running at the same time. That means I’m almost always zoomed in tight enough that I’m...
