Some posts have been removed recently that were links to group members' blogs or websites or personal work of some sort. There's nothing essentially wrong with self promotion. But, instead of filling up the Art.In.General's bookmarks with links to your site and your work, please use this thread only for any self promotion.
If you maintain a blog that references art and design related sites, please post a link directly to that related site instead of a link to your blog post which links to the site. It's best to provide direct links to information instead of secondary links.

Great Idea. I have a Diigo group I would like to share with everyone. I put all of my typography stuff here. You guys can just cherry pick from it, join, not join, whatever. I hope it will free up space here at Arts in General. If you join and contribute low quality or personal or off topic sites I will warn you once then kick you out. If you join and don't post that is great I don't really care.
I am really forgiving and will bend these rules but to cover any long arguments or hurting anyone's feelings I just want to lay those out at the start.
Another thing about this is if a new member joins with higher standards than mine I win because I learn from posting something and the member saying it is bad and why. But I also risk running getting kicked out of my own group : ) I can always forgive someone who is making mistakes while trying to learn something.
If you are an artist your typography probably sucks, I have been into art a long time and just got into typography in 2008. My typography still sucks but at least I am aware. I see a lot of artist make really horrible decisions in this area along with logos. These are learned skills. I am not a teacher but can share all my resources.
