     One of the best tutorials I had ever seen. She has comprehensive guides on Human and Animal Anatomy, Emotion Charts, Color Theory and some unique ones like Arabesque. She's provides really nice references and worth the look.

    Incredible palette maker. 
    Move a few sliders, change hue, saturation and value, and voilà~
    You won yourself a nice palette of 4/8/16 colors.

    Dynamic stick figures based on motion captures. Helpful for understanding movements in human walk or jog cycles.  BMLWalker is probably the most interesting as it lets you see the influence of parameters like gender, weight, stiffness, happiness. BMLRunner is a jog cycle adjusted by gender. BMLScramble is interesting for its motion capture nodes of a cat... and pigeon.

    A beautiful program for icon making, editing, changing, extracting, searching, and exploring. It is fast, small, and easy to use.

    • It allows you to edit transparent or opaque icons.
    • The palette can be Monochrome(1 bit), 16 colors(4 bits), 256 colors(8 bits), true colors(24 bits), or true colors + alpha channel(32 bits).
    • Supports any size of icon.
    • Includes four enhanced icon tools, namely Icon Changer , Icon Searcher , Icon Extractor , and Icon Explorer .
    • Import from or Export to graphic files BMP, JPG, and GIF.
    • Beautiful and intuitive user interface.
    • Windows 95, 98, Millennium, 2000, XP, and NT are supported.
    • 1.56 megabyte file size. It will fit compressed on a 3½ inch floppy disk.
    • Includes nifty effects, including sharpening, softening, embossing, and inverting.
    • Includes enhanced icon tools:
      • Icon Explorer — Explore any icons available on your computer like a file explorer.
      • Icon Changer — Change icons of EXE, OCX, DLL, SCR, ...
      • Icon Searcher — Search icons from ICO, EXE, OCX, DLL, SCR, ...
      • Icon Extractor — Extract icons from ICO, EXE, OCX, DLL, SCR, ...

    I personally highly recommend this program. I have used it mostly to alter existing icons and make folder icons, and it has served me very well. A 15-day trial version can be downloaded for free, and the full version is just $29.95! Well worth the money.
