I can't stay on top of this, so I'm unlocking this thread so everyone can add to it.  If I get time, I'll try and combine everything randomly.

Hi,

Here is a nice selection of free CSS templates.

Great for learning CSS, I just download one template then pull it apart and see what's what.

So tinyMCE finally pissed me off.  They upgraded versions and all the calls are completely different.  Plus they did a bunch of other stuff that generally pissed me off.

So I found this: http://www.spaweditor.com/en/disp.php/en_products/en_spaw/en_spaw_about

Much better IMO and has a lot of the stuff (like a file manager) built in that tinyMCE had as a "plugin".

I stumbled upon a Yahoo developer's Firefox's extension called smush.it!. What this extension does is analyze whatever web page is currently loaded and lists all the images and shows what could use some further compressions. I figured my website's homepage was pretty optimized before hand (as I use 'Save for web' in Photoshop and do my best to optimize my images beforehand). Turns out that smush.it! could shave nearly an additional 7k off of the images!

The screen shot in the link shows what Yahoo's other extension Yslow's stats show for my homepage before and after smush.it image compression, as well as a screenshot over at smush.it!, which displays the images on the page and which can be compressed even further. I ftp'ed those new images (smush.it! provides the newly compressed images as a nice little down loadable zip file) and replaced my current home images (save for one.. I got a .png back instead of a gif.. so I'll update that one soon) and rechecked the stats.. yep.. about 6k was shaved. I cannot tell the difference visually between before and after versions of my homepage. While 6k is not monumental by any stretch, imagine the savings on sites that receive large traffic.

For you firefox users out there, you first need to download and install firebug. Then install smush.it!
A very nice way to squeeze even more optimizations out of your site. :)

Nice going Yahoo! Time for me to check my other pages now!

Cheers,

NRG

A pretty cool pattern generator that allows you upload an image, use a tiling portion based on image segment location and dimensions of your choosing and generate a final tilable graphic that you can use for the backgrounds of your sites.
