2 Big Announcements!

In News by Collis
This week brings two big announcements for the site. First, I'm happy to welcome Sean Hodge officially as the site's new editor. And secondly, I'm also pleased to tell you that PSDTUTS now has a sister-site at NETTUTS.com.

Sean Hodge Steps Up as Editor

For the last few weeks, I haven't been posting anything up here at PSDTUTS. In fact, our superstar contributor Sean has been stepping up to the plate and running the show. Now that he's comfortable behind the wheel, I'm happy to officially welcome him as editor.

As I've mentioned before, Sean has not only lots of experience blogging—he's a writer for sites like SmashingMagazine and GoMediaZine—but he's also a talented designer with an excellent eye.

He's also got lots of ideas and enthusiasm for the site and is going to be a great captain here. I'll still be around now and again messing up Sean's publishing schedule and adding features to the site, but most importantly I'll be building lots of new sites. In fact, in the two-and-a-half weeks since Sean has taken over, I've already managed to redesign FlashDen (which will be live later this week), and I've also had the time to build a new TUTS site! So without further ado ...

NETTUTS Soft Launch

Yesterday, I put up the first beginnings of a new tutorial site over at NETTUTS.com. The site is pretty empty at the moment, and this week I'll be filling it up with some seed content and then setting a relaxed posting schedule which we'll ramp up in the coming months (just like we did here at PSDTUTS).

As the name suggests, NETTUTS is going to be home to tutorials about everything to do with the Net, from HTML/CSS to Flash to Ajax to things like Adobe AIR and Amazon S3.

My main aim early on will be to show you how to build designs that we create here on PSDTUTS into HTML. I'm working on a couple of epic tutorials that go from scratch to slick looking Web site.

As with PSDTUTS, we'll be opening up to user contributions and eventually creating a Plus premium membership program (which will link together with PSD+ for discounts).

For the moment, feel free to head over, bookmark the URL, add the RSS to your feed, and leave a comment.

I'll be back later in the week to link up our first big PSD > HTML tutorial as soon as it goes live.

Catch up with me on Twitter!

I'm still going to be popping in now and again on PSDTUTS, but if you're a twitterer, then you can also follow me on Twitter, where I've recently set up at http://twitter.com/collis <-- Can't believe I managed to get 'collis'. Guess it's good having a weird name sometimes! Mostly I just twitter about business, new sites, big articles and ramblings :-) but feel free to say hello!

  1. Oh and in case anyone’s wondering, the “Creatif” web designs that I posted about earlier today (in the new Plus tutorial) are one of the PSD > HTML tutorials that will be appearing on NETTUTS. But I’ve also got a couple others where the PSD bit will be free too here on the site.

    Lots to do! :-)

  2. oh that’s cool !!! i am on my way to look at nettuts. as a webdesigner this stuff will be as useful as psdtuts. BIG BIG Biiiiiiiiig Thanks to all of you ! :D

  3. yeahhhhhh another great site was born!!! congrats collis!!

  4. Wow… I am so happy to hear that. Collis you are helping designers so much.

    Thank you

  5. Thanks a lot Collis!

  6. *adds nettuts.com to favorites*

  7. Talk about perfect timing. I’ve never done web design before, and I’ve just started hacking my way through Expression Web to build my dad’s site. This will be a tremendous help, thank guys.

    Now all we need is an AITUTS and we’ll be in business!

  8. P.S. If anyone would like to see my novice web design skills, the URL is “www.labus.com”. Obviously it’s still in development, and only the Home and Audio/Video pages are up.

  9. yeah!!
    the 2nd greatest news of the week (the first is my birtday ^^ )

  10. Looking forward to the development of NETTUTS. There will be lots of interesting articles and comment on there if this site is anything to go by. Good on you Collis for launching another site that will be valued so much by the design community.

    I also had a feeling as to who the editor might be, but I was wrong. Good on you Sean!

  11. AITUTS, ANYONE?

  12. there’s psdtuts

    now nettuts

    then what? :D aituts, blogtuts, blabla

  13. Excellent idea, now added to the RSS feed

  14. Great idea…
    But then again; when can we expect to start paying for NETTUTS+PLUS..?
    It’s gonna happen for sure, cause money makes the world go round húh :|

  15. Yeah! Great! Love psdtuts.com - pretty sure that I’ll love nettuts.com as well

  16. This is amazing!! Does the plus account work in both?

  17. AWESOME! I’m a web design student and psd tuts was great for learning how to use photoshop, now you’ve got a sight to do web stuff. like LouieP and Bill said, all we need now is AITUTS and we’re set. maybe FLATUTS would be cool too. just sayin’. ;)

  18. Happy birthday Nico!!! :-)

    And thanks all, looking forward to writing some killer tutorials!

  19. Awesome, I was always hoping there would be a site like that! Thanks

  20. awesome news! I can’t wait for Nettuts. I’ve just recently been starting to get into web and css and I know Nettuts will be a great resource.

  21. You are great Collis. Keep it up.

    Great! I hope NETTUTS will get the same quality content psdtuts has!

  23. Looking forward to even more great tutorials over at NETTUTS!

  24. This. Is. Awsome. Thanks guys! Your too nice to us ;)

  25. I’m actually a web guy by default, and visited PSDTuts to up my PS skills. Real excited to see how nettuts.com turns out.

  26. I’d be more willing to pay for the PLUS membership if both sites were packaged together at the current PSDPlus price. I think it’s a bit exhorbitant.

  27. Thanks so much! Appreciate all the effort :)

  28. w00t! This is amazing!!!

    For Ai tuts check aiburn.com which I believe Sean has something to do with too?

  29. Well done lads keep up the great work!

  30. NetTUTS woohoo!

    And welcome, Sean ;)

  31. Nettuts is gonna be huge!

  32. Sean, I noticed AJAX was mentioned. Does the group have plans to include the JQuery javascript framework in the tutorials?

    Thanks!

  33. Can’t wait for Net tuts to be launched! Will be really useful.

  34. Another awesome site but as an interest , if we are member plus or here do we get in nettuts for free ?

  35. DUDE!!! Awesome! If the content on NETTUTS is half as good as what’s on here we’re all in for a treat. Great stuff - congrats!!!!

  36. I’m happy to be taking on the role of Editor here. The PSDTUTS community is great. I’m really excited to help with keeping great content coming into the site on a consistent basis. And contribute to the site growing and flourishing.

    @Simon - Yes, AiBURN is my Vector blog. It has predominantly tutorials about Illustrator.

    @Robin - I’m not sure if JQuery will be covered. I hope so. I use Drupal a lot and the JQuery framework is built into it. So, I’d like to learn more about JQuery. The NETTUTS site is still fresh. We’ll see what Collis has in store for us over there, as the site grows. It sounds like it will be covering a wide array of the web design and development field. I’m real excited about NETTUTS, as I do a lot of web design work.

    Thx.

  37. really nice news to hear about!

  38. (/^_^)/ *immediately subscribe to nettuts* \(^_^\)

  49. This is awesome. But I must ask the same question as Harry:

    “Another awesome site but as an interest , if we are member plus or here do we get in nettuts for free ?”

  50. Yes! Thank you collis! This is great!!!!!!

  51. Somehow I knew Sean was running the show. Congrats Sean! You’ve become quite the blogger lately.

  54. Wow, this is great news! I just found PSDTuts a few months ago, and it’s been fantastic! It’s great to hear that there will be a NETTuts, considering I’ve actually been hoping on it! I have high hopes for that site, and I can’t wait until things starting moving along. I’m a fledgling web designer, and I’ve really enjoyed all of the tutorials here. I’m sure NETTuts will be just as awesome.

    :D
