New Type York is a website dedicated to the use of typography in New York City. The site itself has a nice, clean design, making it easy to browse the photos of signage around the city. Featured type includes vintage neon signs, hand-lettered grocery store specials, and the often talked about subway lettering. The photoblog is curated by James Patrick Gibson, a designer based in New York City. You can keep up with the latest posts via Twitter.

I talked to James, and he told me future plans for the site include a redesign, user submissions, faster performance, and possibly geo-tagging the photos so we know exactly where the signs are in the big city.

To celebrate the 20th anniversary of Photoshop, Adobe has created a new website dedicated to the software. A nice timeline atop the page takes you through Photoshop's history, from Thomas and John Knoll's development of "Display" (that would later become the industry standard image editing software Photoshop) to CS4 and mobile apps. Digging deeper into the site, there's a reunion video, and of course an opportunity to download trial versions and read about new Photoshop features.

As we come to the end of the winter games, I thought I'd share a beautiful gallery of design I came across through Twitter. The Olympic inspired images range from the cover of Billboard magazine to concept work by artists. I was especially impressed by the print by Jamie Blakesley and the retro posters by Chris Page. Have a look at the gallery on DesignrFix and please share any of your own favorite Olympic or sports design in the comments.

After a great response to the opportunity to share your logo designs on the site, I've added a new community-generated directory of graphic designers. This directory will be a great way to share your work with other readers, as well as for others to search for freelancers and design firms. I've also seen some of the logo submissions already showing up in Google results, a nice bonus for sharing your designs. Add yourself or your design firm to the directory and enjoy browsing the work of others as they come in. Thank you for your submissions!
