Just a bunch of free, useful tools available to make web design a little bit easier:

---

TinyPNG – www.tinypng.org

Advanced lossy compression for PNG images that preserves full alpha transparency. Great tool for compressing single or multiple (up to 20 at once) png images.

FindMyFacebookID.com – www.findmyfacebookid.com

As simple as it gets – just enter the profile url and boom, there’s your numeric ID.

Good Guy Gareth James of SEO Doctor, www.seo-doctor.co.uk, pointed out to us that the Facebook ID Finder above is a phishing SCAM site. When you enter your Facebook page into their form, a sneaky program is initiated that copies your entire profile, images and all, and creates a duplicate fake profile that’s used to spam people (and other nefarious deeds). But, Gareth offers a legitimate Facebook ID finder at: www.seo-doctor.co.uk/seo-tools/find-my-facebook-page-id.html
