Just wanted to let you know that I started working on a new tumblelog called Behind the Scenes. I was always interested in finding out how certain photographs were created and that inspired me to create this new blog. I believe there are many others out there who are interested in the same thing.
Initially, I plan to write about photographyand DSLR video, more precisely — discovering the details behind the scenes.

If you have some interesting video clips or photos revealing the creation process of a photo, post it to Tumblr or send me an e-mail :)

At the beginning of a web (or application) development project I always create the sketches first. While sketching can be done on a blank paper, it’s much better to use a sketch template. For me that is the best and most productive way to work on and improve my ideas before application development begins (and things get more complicated :-)). This way I won’t pay too much attention to some details that should be taken care of later, but stay focused on general layout and functionality.

Below you will find more than 20 resources that you can use in sketching phase of application development. If you have some additional resources to share, please leave a comment so I can add them to the list.

And, of course, don’t forget to share your wireframes on I ♥ wireframes :-)
