Public Domain Graphics
Realm Graphics
Finally a place that incorporates everything from background graphics to icons, buttons, and bars. It includes both sophisticated and fun graphics in a very well laid out format. A new section has been added for design templates. Just download the set and put in your own information. Currently he only has three sets available but hopefully we'll see more in the future. If you see the boxes with numbers in them (1,2,3...), click on them to find even more graphics.

Leo's Icon Archive
Thousands of cute icons and bars with varied subjects. Also some wonderful alphabet initials for decorative caps.

Icon Bazaar
Large resource of icons and various graphics. If you love flowers, this is the best I've seen (check out the roses - gorgeous!).

The Clip Art Connection
This has links to all sorts of clip art pages. You can pretty much find any clip art you need.


Hexidecimal Colors
Dougie's Color Picker and Hex Color Chart
This chart displays the colors next to their hex code and indicates which ones are dithering and non-dithering. Some style guides indicate that you should limit yourself to the 216 non-dithering colors as they will look good on 256 color monitors as well as the million color monitors. This particular page lets you choose your background and text/link colors and view what it would look like.

Browser Safe Color Palette
This takes a while to download (234K), but it is a graphic of the 216 browser-safe colors by author Lynda Weinman. If you design webpages much, this is great to have bookmarked. I use it almost every day to determine the colors I want to use.
