General resources

1001 free fonts

This site offers hundreds of downloadable fonts for Mac or Windows. Even when it's not a good idea to use a strange font to format the text of an HTML file (won't be displayed if the visitor doesn't ahve it installed) they can be really useful to create images and banners. Fonts need to be downloaded and installed.

A site full of pictures that webmasters can use to create new images or to decor a website. Images can be used with the consent of their respective right holders (see more at their legal information page).

Important note: I do accept recommendations to list on this page that you can make trough the contact form, but I'll only list here very qualified resources, where the accessibility has precedence. Don't waste your time trying to recommend an unrelated or poor in content website. I'll pick the sites listed here with the same care I write my own tutorials.
