Thanks to LifeHacker for this tip.

LogoInstant is a design service that creates a new logo almost every day.

According to their web site, they create logos when they’re bored and share them freely with the rest of the world.

You can use all the logo design accessed from this website as inspirations, using it on your website or your project or even using them for your clients. You don’t have to spend big bucks anymore for designer, because this service is 100% free.

So basically, the logos are completely free for both personal and commercial use. Best of all, they come in a layered Adobe Photoshop source file (PSD) so you can edit the name or make more advanced changes.

So whether you want to use their service as inspiration or if you don’t mind having the same logo as several other companies, check out some of their logo designs.

Good Gravy! How did I ever miss this awesome web site? Free icons? OK, what else is new? Free high quality icons? Hmmm, that sounds better already. How about free high quality icons that you can download in a variety of sizes, even as PNG files with transparent backgrounds?

At any rate, aside from its content, the web site itself has been carefully crafted, featuring a very intuitive and visually appealing collapsible & expandable navigation bar on the left side.

The icons are organized by such categories as Art Icons, Business icons, Computer Icons, Phones, etc. By and large, the site makes heavy use of Google AdWords and seems to belong to somebody who’s not necessarily a native English speaker (so be kind when you encounter typos and obvious misspellings).

Most of the icons in which I was interested were available for download in a number of sizes (such as 32×32, 48×48, 64×64, 128×128 and 256×256) as well as in a PNG and ICO formats. Typically, the free high quality icons that I downloaded were all licensed under the Creative Commons Attribution 3.0 License.

By the way, if you are an icon designer and would like to submit some high quality icons on IconsPedia, you can submit your icons (or at least some of them) on the web site, too.

Here’s a quick and attractive way to spice up any web page or web marketing campaign: QuickRibbon.

This free Web 2.0 web application does thing, and it does it really well: It generates a web page ribbon for you. You know, one of those slanted graphics that shows up in the upper right corner of a web page.

According to the QuickRibbon.com web site:

“QuickRibbon is a completely free Web2.0 tool, a website ribbon generator which lets you create a custom ribbon, insert a link in it and place it in the top right corner of your website.”

“It will take you less than 5 minutes to generate your own website ribbon with this trendy widget and add a stylish Web2.0 look to your page – it’s quick, easy and fun. We recommend using our QuickRibbon tool to attract your site’s visitors attention to new features, announcements, sales, etc. Get rid of the boring banners and make your news stand out with a style.”

I found this extremely useful for a couple of web campaigns, where we needed to draw attention to a new service or a special promotion.

The text, font, size, colors and style can be selected and auto-generated. And when you’ve generated the ribbon, you even get a code snippet that you can insert into your web page to display the ribbon. Additionally, you can add links to your ribbon and specify whether to show them in the same window or in a new window.

How cool is that? Oh, and did I mention that you can also use this tool for BLOGs (WordPress, blogger, etc.), MySpace, and LiveJournal?
