The Web & Graphics Design Thread

Since the open source thread worked out so well, I thought we should have a thread for everyone to post their favourite web and graphic design stuff. I'm just getting into learning HTML/XHTML/CSS and Javascript with a view towards doing it full time in a few years. I've been collecting interesting sites and tutorials on web design as well as photoshop/illustrator type stuff. I'd like to see what others can come up with: new tutorials, links to video tutorials, interesting websites that showcase what people are doing, cheat sheet sites, whatever. I'll start the ball rolling with one of my favourite sites right now:

Founded in September 2006, Smashing Magazine delivers useful and innovative information for designers and web-developers. Our aim is to inform our readers about the latest trends and techniques in web-development - clearly, precisely and regularly. We don’t try to convince you with the quantity, but with the quality of the information we present. That’s what makes us different. In fact, we smash you with the information which will make your life easier. Really.

Why Smashing Magazine? Well, why not? We smash our readers with information which might be useful for them, even although they haven’t realized it yet.

I'm trying to resurrect this thread along with my other thread about internet artwork the Tilted Artwork forum. Here's another great link to a webzine with excellent articles and tutorials:

I do a fair bit of javascript work - most of the time I just use google if I'm unsure. For example, yesterday I needed a script to check that a field had a "time" entered in a certain format.

A google like:
javascript validate time - Google Search

returns a lot of useful hits and you'll usually find a lot of js code that can be used from there.

I like B&A Mag. When I get a blank head collhomepages.com does the trick.
