One thing businesses have come to count on is change. It’s going to happen, and when it comes to social media marketing, it can be hard to keep up. As of last Friday, Facebook has rolled out their mandatory new timeline for brand pages, and undoubtedly a flurry of attention to what will go in the cover photo has ensued in the past week.

The creation of CSS changed web design forever (as if that doesn’t go without saying). With the advancement of CSS3, it will change how we do things once again by restructuring the way in which we implement images and animations during web development.

In a fast paced environment, every second counts. Besides a well organized file, what better way to speed up your work flow than to employ a few time saving principals, in the form of key commands in Photoshop! What may save you 5 seconds per action, will add up to hours of time saving. Think of a key command like a coupon, it takes a little off, but a lot of little cuts can really add up.

Historically speaking, changes to the norm aren’t always well received, if they are too “different” or “out there”. Usually, there are a few people ahead of the curve that spread the word of change to the masses, and often times are met with resistance or at times backlash. Take D Bnonn Tennant’s article for Smashing Magazine “16 Pixels: For Body Copy. Anything Less is a Costly Mistake”. Eliciting over 400 comments, this surely was one hot topic for debate amongst web designers. Many praised his article while others flat out argued against his concept, and of course some took the opportunity to expand upon his point a bit, adding pertinent points or debating details of his argument.
