Being a web designer is not easy. Not only do we need to have a good

understanding about visual design, typography, information architecture,

psychology and a plethora of other disciplines; in our work, we need to

take care of so many details, so that our job becomes more and more

time-consuming, requiring dozens of tools, attention span and an

effective workflow for beautiful, timely and functional results.

And

this is where small time-savers become handy. Be it a handy checklist,

batch installer, dummy image generator or converter from Excel

spreadsheet to HTML — all these things can save us a couple of minutes

every day, making our work easier and more efficient. And this is why we

keep collecting them for Smashing Magazine’s readers. Whether you like

lists or not: this one will probably help you find those little nuggets

out there that will help you avoid headaches and stress. Below we

present useful time-savers for web designers.
