The Twitterverse is an expansive abyss of wonder, delight, amusement, and above all, resources! There are hundreds of web and graphic designers on Twitter that will either point you in the direction of some really neat tutorials (if you’re a Photoshop or Fireworks beginner) or that already have huge resources of their own. 

The first Twitterer that you must follow is Graham Smith. Graham Smith is @imjustcreative on Twitter. His two sites, I’m Just Creative and We Are Just Creative are great resources for logo designers or just graphic designers in general. You will find content that is geared toward getting yourself into the game as well as his interest in promoting other graphic designers.

Nick Pagano of ThinkDesign is probably the next must follow. ThinkDesign is a vast resource of information for web and graphic designers that will allow you to understand and see the world of design from your own desktop. He provides countless resources for people… and get this… they’re usually free! His Twitter is @ThinkDesign.

Another Twitterverse Designer that is a must follow is Stu Greenham, the creator of the (NERD)Press theme for WordPress. @stugreenham is another great resource for people who love to use WordPress, the popular CMS (Content Management System) for bloggers and now, pretty much everyone. Stu has provided information on his (NERD)Press theme at I’m Just Creative.

Matt at Spoonfed Design also requires a follow. His Photoshop and Illustrator tutorials alone make his website a must visit. Following him will unlock several pertinent resources, including other designers that may be able to assist you as well as provide you with additional knowledge about the software that you just gave Adobe an arm and a leg for. (Heh.) Follow him @Spoonfed_Design or visit his website.

@mikeward from Mike Ward Design is also a great resource if you ever have a question. Mike has been around the design industry for a while so he can provide in depth insight on how to create something new, fun, and flashy. He is mostly noted for his “retro” designs, which are catching on again in Web 2.1/3.0 (whichever you prefer to call it). Follow him on Twitter or catch a throwback on his design site. 

That concludes this edition of “Twitterverse Designers You Must Follow”. Stay tuned for new ones on the next edition!
