Designers Toolbox

July15

I just read a great blog called 50+ tools To Make You a More Efficient & Organized Designer. It names tons of websites, applications, add-ons, etc. that can help you in your design business, many of which we already use and are in fact very helpful.

I found one new source that I think could be very helpful as a reference tool. Designers Toolbox: Design Resources basically lists out all kinds of graphic design standards from typical paper sizes, standard business card size, types of bindings, etc. They also have a web section that describes standard sizes across all platforms. Looks like a pretty handy site to keep in your back pocket.
