How-To’s Day - 2005-01-04

How-To’s Day is a regular feature of the Design Weblog in which we give you five highly useful how-to tutorials—four from around the Web, and one created specifically for you by yours truly. [This week, due to technical difficulties (fighting a nasty computer virus across my entire network for three days) there is not a tutorial written by yours truly. —Editor] How-To’s Day is the first, third, and, if there is one, fifth Tuesday of every month.

Sometimes the How-To’s Day tutorials are hardcore design techniques, other times they’re cunning production procedures, time-saving shortcuts, and, once in a while, just plain old fun and funky how-to’s.

Got an idea for a How-To’s Day tutorial? Know of a cool tutorial elsewhere on the web? Let me know.

Have you written a killer tutorial? Send it my way; it may appear in a future How-To’s Day.
