Design news from the interweb

There are some cool new tools for designers and web developers on the way. The biggest is probably the release of Adobe’s Creative Suite 5 — the next versions of everything we use in our creative work. Here’s a link to an article previewing a very cool new Photoshop tool for image editing. It contains a video demonstrating the effect and it really is flat out amazing. The video starts out slow, but the good stuff starts about halfway through:

Also, here’s a link to a new script-based image gallery. Previously, this sort of thing required Flash development. But javascripting and jquery have made a lot of these things easier to create and faster to load. First, here’s a link describing the gallery, followed by a link to the gallery itself. Again, amazing stuff, and the creative staff at Haley Marketing can’t wait to start using them.
