Personally, when coding, I prefer to use a dark theme. It’s less harsh on my eyes. Unfortunately, there simply aren’t many available for Netbeans. After an hour or so of searching, I was able to find exactly one theme — which was mostly specific to Ruby. So, I took it upon myself to convert the popular Twilight theme to Netbeans/PHP!


Netbeans Twilight Theme!

Installation Instructions

To add this theme, simply open “Preferences” (”Options” on PC) and click “Import” at the bottom. Then browse for your zip file — do not unzip — and click “okay!” That’s it.

Example

* Note - At this point in time, I’ve only coded for HTML, PHP, and JavaScript. As I’m still “debugging”, so to speak, I’ll continue to update the downloadable source code. If you notice any quirks/inconsistencies in the coloring, please feel free to let me know, via the comments. … And if you like this theme, please send a link to your NetBeans buddies!

“Here’s my jQuery lightbox clone, I did it because those available are either not close enough to the real lightbox (lacking animations, not supporting galleries, etc ,etc) or were just not suiting my need.”

The Woork Handbook is a free eBook about CSS, HTML, Ajax, web programming, Mootools, Scriptaculous and other topics about web design.

This book is a miscellanea of articles I wrote on my blog in the past year. During the period form January to December 2008 “Woork” has been visited from over 4 millions visitors and I received a lot of requests to distribute a printable version of its contents. In the past days I worked hard to prepare a first version of this handbook and distribute it for free.

When creating tutorials for NETTUTS and ThemeForest, I always end up using arrows to point to key areas in my images. Unfortunately, by default, Photoshop only supplies a few boring arrows. If you enjoy the hand-drawn look (which I do!), the folks over at ThinkDesignBlog.com are offering 120 adorable arrows to use in your projects. You’ll be seeing a bunch of these icons in future tutorials. :)

“This vector-pack includes 120+ hand-drawn arrows and other elements. I even snuck in some hand-drawn RSS logos, and social marketing icons. I’m a big fan of the whole ‘hand drawn’ stuff, and an avid “doodler”, so I figured I’d put something together.”

Do you hate having to pull out the calculator every time you want to convert pixels to ems? Sometimes, it’s quicker to simply use pixels because we simply don’t have the time to figure out the correct value. Luckily, an online service called pxtoem.com makes it laughably simple, and more importantly quick, to convert pixels to ems. All that you need to know is your base font size.

Boban created a wonderful “featured content” jQuery plugin. You’ve seen this effect many, many times. Now you can easily implement the functionality into your own web apps.
