This month is coming to a close, so today we’ll look at some awesome design resource and interesting bits that we came across and saved for you guys.
Processing.js
Processing.js is the sister project of the popular Processing visual programming language, designed for the web. Processing.js makes your data visualizations, digital art, interactive animations, educational graphs, video games, etc. work using web standards and without any plug-ins. You write code using the Processing language, include it in your web page, and Processing.js does the rest. It’s not magic, but almost.
Isometrics Drawing Tool
This is an interactive tool to create dynamic drawings on isometric dot paper. Draw figures using edges, faces, or cubes. You can shift, rotate, color, decompose, and view in 2?D or 3?D. Start by clicking on the cube along the left side; then, place cubes on the grid where you would like them.
Treehouse

Storify
Storify is the easiest way to find, collect, and share what people are saying all over the web. Join top companies, brands, and agencies as well as millions of users on the best platform for leveraging social media.

Grid Item Animation Layout
As always, Mary Lou and her team is giving us a cool experiment for a responsive, magazine-like website layout with a grid item animation effect that happens when opening the content. The sidebar and grid items animate to a larger content area when clicked so this allows more content to be added. Other demos are included in this awesome effect!
Neon Flames
Draw your own nebula right in your browser! If you haven’t yet been to our Facebook page recently, you wouldn’t have noticed our amazing cover which has been done using Jonas Wagner’s amazing programming skills. A software engineer based in Zurich, Switzerland, Jonas hacks on creative projects and open source stuff to bring us cool playthings like these neon flames. Head over to his site for more jaw-dropping code!
Timehop
Your own time capsule of your life, Timehop shows old photos and updates from Facebook, Twitter, Foursquare, Instagram, Flickr and your camera roll photos from this exact day in history. Timehop helps you celebrate the best moments of the past with your friends!
Scribbler Too
The Scribbler takes simple vector based inputs and creates a drawing based on a number of simple rules. When a new scribble line is created it chooses a few numbers at random that eventually determines what sort of line it will draw. Because there is randomness built into the program, each scribble is unique and produces one heck of an art piece. We’ve even made one for our Facebook page previously.
Flatsies
Save precious time and make your clients happy, Flatsies is a tool for designers to share their concepts with clients in a simple and elegant way. Join Facebook, Twitter, Firefox and Adobe and utilise this ultimate resource that’s built for designers.
