One of the biggest problems caused by this recession would be not only it causes cutting off a lot of jobs, but also taking away the opportunities of getting a new job!

In this competitive situation, (and if you are looking for a job right now) a resume would be the most important part of applying a job. This will represent you a lot at the first place as the employers cannot see your face and need to decide with your resume for the further process if they are going to have an interview. Especailly if you are applying for a web designer position, the creativness would be the most imporatnt part you must consider when you make your resume. But personally I would recommend you don’t overdo it. Making a simple, but creative resume would be the best approach.

Today I’m going to share 42 creative resumes with you guys and hope it could help you a lot if you are especailly preparing a resume right now

Before we get started, here’s a video you can get started with the basic layout of what and how you can write in your resume.

With this in mind, design your resume to show off your creativeness.

Here are links for how to make a good resume (for everyone)

In this vein, we have developed the Showcase section and focused on helping you find out many beautiful websites out there. I surely believe you will find a lot of awesome websites on Fish in the River – Showcase section.

However, we come up with another idea that we would like to share with you guys the other 46 Web Gallery websites on where you can find both Flash and CSS based websites beautifully-designed.

Before we get started, here’s today’s video as usual. The video is about 3D site visualization. I think this is a quite cool idea and maybe in the near future, web design standard would become something like this? Have a watch and get inspired!

So how you can get there? Just follow this address http://showcase.fishintheriver.com/ or click the link in the top menu bar;

and enjoy the hundreds of showcases.

FR – Showcase is not only sharing hand-picked well-designed websites, but also providing other features like Popular and Top 100 links.

What is “Popular”?

You can view the “This Week Popular Websites” here. The popular websites are decided by the number views each week. So every week you will see new popular websites.

What is “Top 100″?

Top 100 is the list of the most popular and be-loved websites in FR – Showcase. It is decided by a formula calculated by several factors like number of views and ratings. So even if a website has full rating score, but with a low visit number (comparing to other websites), the website would hardly hit the Top 10.

Another good thing about Top 100 is that the site owners can get the FR – Ranking score and display it on their own websites. To get the code, just click the “Get Code” link;

and follow the instruction.

“Top 100″ is updated every week, so don’t forget to visit Top 100 page to find out which website got in Top 10 each week!

Please let us know if you have any better ideas or suggestions to plug into FR – Showcase. Also if you found any bugs, please let us know by contacting us here or submitting here or here below.

Hope you enjoy it and get inspired by FR – Showcase!

Michael Jackson, the King of Pop, left us last Thursday (Jun 25, 2009). He was 50.
I feel so sorrow, it’s not only because we lost the King of Pop, but also we lost him too early.

Besides many rumors and scandals, he is one of the most widely beloved entertainers and profoundly influential artists of all-time (from Michael Jackson’s official website), surely he will be always remembered in our memories.

Many graphic designers and artists did their incredible works to remember him and I found a lot of awesome graphics in DeviantART. Today I’m going to list 50 Michael Jackson Graphics in this post. I hoped to see him in a concert once in my life, but there’s no more chances…

R.I.P. Michael we will always remember you as the King of Pop.

Taking good photos of wild animals is one of the most difficult and dangerous types of photography. We actually need to go to the wild park or any wild area in which we can’t be guaranteed 100% safty and wait for the moment to take a good photo. That’s why many wild life photos are loved by a lot of people and quite valuable to see.

Here you can see “Best Wild Animal Photos of 2008 Announced” from National Geographic.

Below are 50 stunning wild animal photos and linked to the each source. Please explore more good photos in the photographers page and leave your comments for them. Also you know any good wild animal photos, please leave the link in the comment to this post.

Do you like a raining day? Have you tried listening to the sound of rain on a tin roof? I love to listen to the sound of the drops hitting the roof. It sounds so soft and calm. I also like to see the street in the raining day. Many people are hurry to go to their work holding their umbrellas in the morning. Some people looks unhappy, but many couples get closer in the same umblella.

Below you will see 50 stunning raining day in the city. There are two parts, photos in colors and in Black&White. Listen to the raining sound
