I have always been fascinated with plaid patterns, so last week I decided to create a set of 50 plaid pattern swatches to give away on my site. Plaid patterns have countless uses for fashion design or textiles, graphic or web design, package design and more. What makes this set so great is that each seamless vector pattern has been converted to a swatch. Swatches are great because of the flexibility that they provide. You can perform a number of transformations on them including scale and rotate without affecting the shape of the object they are applied to. You can find a detailed tutorial on how to install and work with pattern swatches here.

If you are working with Photoshop, Dreamweaver or  Illustrator, it’s very usefull and easery to work with shortcuts. If found shortcuts for…..

• Photoshop CS3
• Photoshop CS2
• Photoshop CS
• Photoshop 7

Shortcuts for Windows and Mac.

I found some useful web styles and swatches for Photoshop, Illustrator, Fireworks and even Gimp on dezinerfolio. These styles and swatches can speed up your designing process.

The Photoshop layer styles contains 131 styles, the Illustrator gradient swatches contains 130 swatches, the fireworks contains 48 styles and the Gimp styles contains 30 styles.
