Recently, DesignM.ag acquired all the intellectual property rights to ZenTextures.com. As part of this acquisition we have decided to put the entire Zen Collection in your hands for only $29.

If you're a freelance designer, eventually a client will ask you to do something stupid. Something that you know won't work.
I'm not talking about moral issues here, but rather about practical design issues. The client has asked you to design something that simply won't be effective. (I would hope that you already know what to do about moral issues.)

Developing and programming with databases is a huge step onto a large plateau of information. Nobody starts out with MySQL and masters the software in a week. Not only do you need to learn setting up DBs and tables, but also the SQL language itself.
This rough road was very difficult to traverse maybe 5 or 10 years ago. But there is much more information online today which is generally very helpful. Thus I have scoured through Google and put together 28 of my personal favorite MySQL tutorials for newbies. You can learn all the basics of setting up a database and connecting into your own application. But additionally if you have any questions or comments on the gallery, feel free to share with us in the discussion below.

Not all startups will require a large team to get a product online and scale quickly. There are examples of single technical founders or even a team of 2-3 people building the initial frameworks for rapidly advancing Internet startups. You will see this type of startup more commonly in mobile app stores where the barrier to entry and profit margins are very high. But even websites and other startups can thrive in an environment with very few team members.
In this article I'd like to delve into the concept of a startup and how to adjust the mindset of your team. It will require dedication from every person and long hours are commonplace in startup environments. But success is all about how you work and your willingness to change what isn't working. The efficiency of your team will depend on everybody's ability to communicate and share ideas with each other.

Did you know WordPress powers 14.7% of the top million websites in the world? WordPress is now considered a state-of-the-art website platform - and, best of all, it’s free to use. It’s so great that 22 out of every 100 new, active domains in the US are running WordPress. And, it’s only going to keep growing as web designers learn WordPress allows you to build sites faster and easier. Plus, now clients are specifically asking for content management systems, like WordPress. As the word spreads, so will the demand. That’s why it’s so important to get started now and be at the front of this trend.
Website designers are very common and 2012 has seen an enormous increase with more students entering the field. Popular niches often focus around business and high finance - however digital media and especially video games are on the rise. Because of these trends you'll see more people launching video game blogs and social networks.
I want to devote this gallery towards 33 interesting video game website layouts. These do include some blogs, along with fansites and dedicated strategy guides. Designers can work together building some incredible products for the web. I hope this gallery can offer a bit of inspiration in the way of gaming in our new digital era.
