I love pull quotes
I read a lot, and yet the text that often grabs me when I first glance at a page is not the headline, but the pull quote. This is a small blurb pulled out of the body copy and made to stand out in some way. I have gone through magazine articles reading only the pull quotes. But many web designers don’t use them. And they are a great way to add visual interest to a page that is otherwise dry and boring text. Plus, like headlines, pull quotes stand out and bring a reader through an article. By creating effective and dynamic pull quotes you can help your readers along and keep them interested in your site. This article explores how to style pull quotes in more exciting ways. And none of the methods use cutting edge CSS! So why not consider using a pull quote in your next web article?

Web Design Software Pick of the Week: CSS Type Set
It’s easier to view your typography and make changes to it as you watch, and the CSS Type Set helps you do that. You can set one of 10 font families, your font size (in pixels or ems), the font color, alignments, and other font styles. Then, what’s useful is you can change the letter spacing, word spacgin, and line height with sliders. You slide them back and forth to see how your font looks. I wish there were more font families to choose from, but the 10 they have are fairly common on the web, so at least you would know that most people could see the font you chose. This is a useful tool for quickly getting a sense of how your word-, letter-, and line-spacing affects your text.
In order to be a good designer, you need to understand unity
Unity in design is the proximity of elements to one another. The closer two elements are, the more related they are, and the farther apart they are, the less related they are. But even if you understand that in writing, it’s much easier to see it through examples. This 5-part article will show you how to see unity in simple lists or blocks of text, unity with headlines, and a website banner before and after the principle of unity was applied to it.

Do you use helvetica?
Jacci, the Desktop Publishing Guide on About.com posted an interesting blog entry yesterday: What’s a Good Alternative to Helvetica? No Not Arial. Helvetica is so ubiquitous, and it’s virtual twin, Arial, isn’t far behind. I admit, a lot of my default font stacks are “geneva, arial, helvetica”. I tell myself as I throw that in there that I’m going to look at the typography as soon as the layout and other major design decisions are made. And yet, there that font stack is in my designs years later! Are you guilty of lazy typography in your web pages? What’s your favorite font stack?
