Someone posted these links in a resources thread in one of the programming forums I contribute to.

It’s basically a presentation by Yahoo! JavaScript Architect Douglas Crockford – it’s a couple of years old, but it’s all still pretty much accurate.

It’s a must-see for anyone who doesn’t know much about JavaScript, or more importantly, anyone who thinks they know about it and has cast it aside as a “simple scripting language”. ;)

It’s about 2 hours long so it’s a bit of an investment, but it’s been broken up into 4 half-hour-ish videos for your viewing pleasure.

Enjoy:

Part 1, Part 2, Part 3 and Part 4

Creating Transparent favicon in Photoshop

I’ve found a handy little plugin for Photoshop that lets you save files out in the .ICO format – handy for making favicons for your website!

Download the “ICO (Windows Icon) Format” in Mac or Windows format, unzip and copy the “ICOFormat.8bi” file into your “File Formats” plugin folder located in “C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CS3\Plug-Ins\File Formats”. If you have Photoshop open, save your work, close it and start it again.

You should now see “ICO (Windows icon) (*.ICO)” in the “Format” menu when you try to save a file.
