Welcome to another installment of Free for all Friday. Let’s get right to it:
Graphics
Clipart at The Bible Revival: Ignore the overall site design and a few other quirks and you will find a fantastic resource for some great historical images and clip art. There’s other stuff available as well, but I think the historical art is the best find.
Communicorps: Graphics and ideas so good you can’t believe they’re free. You’ll find background images, clip art, thematic art, and tons of ideas starters and helps for your graphics and advertising. (HT: transitionpete.org)
Image*After: “Image*After is a large online free photo collection. You can download and use any image or texture from our site and use it in your own work, either personal or commercial.”
The Go MediaZine: A brand new sample set of vector art with music and religious touches. Download them now.
Ministry
Prayer Feeder: Prayer circles come to the 21st Century! Aggregate your prayer requests via RSS, and keep your prayer circle constantly in touch with the latest prayer needs and consistently updated with the latest answers to prayer. Watch your prayer circle grow ever larger. Still in beta. (HT: Tall Skinny Kiwi)
Mac Software
LiveQuartz: Need to do some simple image editing but don’t feel like firing up Photoshop? LiveQuartz is a free and simple image editing utility which I fire up nearly daily for quick and dirty image manipulation.
Pipette: Want to know the HEX number for a certain color? You need Pipette. Use this handy utility to discover the color code to any color on your monitor, an copy the corresponding HEX code to your CSS code, or use it to match colors in Photoshop and Illustrator.
Written Word
Imprimis: “A monthly publication by Hillsdale College, one of the best educational institutions to be found in America. Imprimis, which in Latin means “in the first place,” is Hillsdale’s national speech digest. It publishes presentations delivered at the College’s many seminar and lecture programs. Begun in 1972 with a circulation of 1,000, it now reaches over 1.25 million readers monthly, the largest thing of its kind. Imprimis promotes the principles of individual rights, limited government, free market economics, personal responsibility and strong national defense. It comes at no cost to anyone who wishes to receive it, as part of Hillsdale’s commitment to ‘educating for liberty.’”
Answers in Genesis: I realize that not everyone who comes by this blog is into the whole creation vs. evolution debate, but for those who are, there are some great free resources from Answers in Genesis. Sign-up for both their email newsletters, and their monthly printed Answers Update.
As always, if you know of a freebie that you’ve benefited from and think I should share with the community, drop me a line.
