I have installed a links module (can see it on the left side). But it's empty right now.

I will work on getting the valid links from the old site copied over the next week or so.

BUT

if know of any cool prepress/printing related sites/blogs etc etc - please take a minute and put it in the database.

If you have suggestions for additional categories - please suggest them as well

I have a bunch Cory. I'll keep appending my list as I remember them or find them in my bookmarks, but here's a few for now:

Forums | Typophile
PrintPlanet.com | Learn - Teach - Debate : on the forefront of prepress, print production, post press, personalization printing, print buyer, consulting
Photoshop tutorials: Special effects
Tutorials: Photoshop Tutorials: Special Effects Tutorials
Photoshop Special Effects Tutorials
Illustrator Effects Tutorials - TutorialOutpost

These are mainly designer oriented but as most of everyone knows a simple google search will bring up an array of pages to search on any subject.

I just love putting certain words together and seeing what results come up, such as "color theory" =
Color printing theory - Google Search

One at a time, then go to page two, damn that's work. Easier to just copy paste link into my post

but I'll do it, hell I'm not working or going anywhere

I've a few, I'll start putting them in tonight. How are duplicate links being dealt with, we end up with a dozen for some of the more popular sites?

it will automatically check for dupes, I can also run a script to pull them out

At least we won't end up with 20 in there for planet pdf or something

Cory I think the section for "Vendors" should include the CTP and Proofing as opposed to the "Articles" section. As far as importance wouldn't you want to see the site of interest before seeing an article (which would probably be posted in the "News" forum.

Just a thought

Just put up nearly my entire book mark collection, there's some quite esoteric stuff in there. Wanna Russian / Cyrillic Font? It's there! Wanna know some real obscure pdf gear? It's there! Not to mention some pretty funky stuff from Adobe. You might want to move some across categories, I've pulled some hours today.

I can't find the Ghent Working Group - Matt know anything? Hope the "Dupe Bot" earns it's pennies tonight...

I think I may have goofed, more uploaded tomorrow.

Hi, I'm getting a URL not valid for this

Developer Resources

It's valid, it loads correctly
