It's an amazing piece of software for a bargain.

Wallpaper of the Week by Percolate

The wallpaper of this week is an amazing image created by Percolate and it's inspired by Google's new Material Design visual language. They sought to create sophistication and depth from a simple set of colors and patterns. The wallpapers also drew from textile design and since we sometimes make T-shirts of our patterns, they had to hold up equally well as fashion as they would a background.

How to keep the full file name when saving for web in Photoshop

When using the “Save for Web” function in Photoshop, a little thing has been annoying many designers for a long time, Photoshop will truncate your file name. This makes it more difficult to save series of images that are numbered at the end of the file name.

However, it is very easy to modify the software’s behavior on this point. For that, when you are in the “Save for Web & Devices” panel, click on the tiny arrow that points down (located on the right hand side of the preset dropdown, see screenshot below).

In this menu, choose the “Edit Output Settings…” item. You will then see a panel that looks like the following image.

Here, under “Saving Files”, just uncheck all the checkboxes in the “Filename compatibility” section. That’s it, you are set and will not have your file names resized against your will.
