Things Mac OS X
While this web page has some outdated information, the list of Mac OS X resources is fairly extensive. The categories include browsers, FTP apps, databases, security, GUI and more. I love sites like this because I always seem to come across an app or a bit of information that I didn’t know about.
Shrine of Apple
If you’re an Apple fan (which I assume you are if you’re reading this), then you need to check out Shrine of Apple. It’s a new website that aims to photograph every Apple product ever made, right down to adapters and cables. They’ve got quite a collection already.

Dead simple way to create your own waving flag artwork in Photoshop

Creating your own waving flag has never been easier
I’m not sure how useful this little gem would be to you, but I found it quite cool because it’s so simple. Artbees has made Flag Creator, a layered .psd file, available for download. The file will convert your flat flag artwork into the wavy flag as seen above. This is not a Photoshop Action file, instead you simply double click a specified layer, paste your custom artwork in the resulting window and hit Save. That’s it, your wavy flag is automatically created.
