About

Hi everyone. My name is Jay Hilgert. I’m a Designer, Blogger, Web Enthusiast, and an Apple Geek, This blog is my little corner of the web. I’m from Oklahoma, went to Oklahoma State University, moved to St. Louis for a while, now I operate out of Oklahoma City. My main job description would be a “Freebie Maker” if you had to describe what I spend most of my time doing. I like to give away only the best quality stuff to help designers everywhere. I also like to post workflow tips to help people work faster. These are the posts where everyone can chime in until we find the best way to do a certain task. I enjoy the community of professionals (and non-professionals) we’ve built here and I hope you find something useful while you’re here. Nice to meet you ;)

    Jay,
    Thanks for what you’re doing to further design. It’s obvious you’ve had an influence on what’s being designed out there (at least on my projects). Thanks again!
