Places to go for help and tips

I think I've mentioned these before, but this may be a good time to mention them again.

If you have technical coding questions (like why does this site work in IE but not in Firefox?), try the forum boards at sitepoint.com. The community is very friendly and helpful, and won't turn down a politely worded request for help. Just be sure to be as specific as possible about your problem and what software you are using. Give them the address to the site (if it's live on the web) so they can see for themselves.

A very nice place for help with graphics (especially Photoshop questions) is graphics.com. Imaginative name, I know. They also have a good forum board community, and their "tips" section has some great articles.

I also highly recommend good-tutorials.com if you're looking to create a specific effect, like torn edges or carved wood or whatever. Check their unobtrusive menus on the side for items like "web graphics" and "web layouts." Fun stuff.

Hope you find these resources useful!
