The Tutorial Index Giants

Good-Tutorials (http://www.good-tutorials.com/)

Good-Tutorials was originally a site dedicated to building the largest Photoshop Tutorial index in the world.* Over the years, it has gradually added more and more tutorial categories, and remains to be one of the largest Tutorial Indexes out there.

Pixel2Life (http://www.pixel2life.com/)

Pixel2Life is probably THE LARGEST Tutorial Index on the planet, currently listing over 40,000 tutorials in various categories.* They’ve always been quick to add new tutorial topics, and have a wonderful community always willing to lend a helping hand to beginners.

Tutorial Outpost (http://tutorialoutpost.com/)

One of our other favorite Tutorial Indexes would have to be Tutorial Outpost.* While they may not be as large or busy as G-T and P2L, they certainly have come to be very well known, and they update on a frequent basis with new tutorials.

User Link Feeds

PSDTUTS User Link Feed (http://psdtuts.com/userlinks/user-link-feed/)

Wait… PSDTUTS?* They’re not a Tutorial Index…* Oh, but they have such a lovely User Link Feed!* Anyone can go and quickly submit a link with a quick blurb, and if it meets up to standards, PSDTUTS will share it with their loyal readers!* Not necessarily all of their links are tutorials, but you’ll definitely come across some top quality articles if you keep an eye on their feed!

VECTORTUTS User Link Feed (http://vectortuts.com/features/user-link-feed/)

Look familiar?* VECTORTUTS is a sister site to PSDTUTS, and has a feed of its own geared towards Vector design (ie: Adobe Illustrator Tutorials (http://www.tutorial9.net/category/illustrator/)).

Digg-like Link Sharing

Design Float (http://www.designfloat.com/)

Design Float is probably the top Digg clone out there for anything Design related.* They don’t simply focus on Tutorials, but the audience there seems to float them up quite often.

Design Bump (http://www.designbump.com/)

Design Bump is quickly growing, and already causing quite a stir in the Design community.* They have a category completely dedicated to Tutorials, making them a wonderful resource for learning.

Pixel Groovy (http://www.pixelgroovy.com/)

Pixel Groovy is a Digg-like clone dedicated entirely to Tutorials.* All of the content is screened by viewers before making it to the front page, allowing only the top tutorials to be featured.

Fresh, New Faces

Photoshop Lady (http://www.photoshoplady.com/)

Photoshop Lady is a collection of the Top Free Photoshop Tutorials from around the web, all in one place.* The site is updated daily, and features some wonderful features, such as the ability to easily save your favorite tutorials to revisit later!* This one is definitely one of our new favorites!

http://www.tutorial9.net/wp-content/uploads/2008/07/think2torials.jpg

Think2torials (http://think2torials.com/)

Think2torials makes things super simple when it comes to submitting new tutorials, and the folks who run the site help you out in the process of creating a thumbnail.* This is an index worth watching!

Growing Fast!

http://www.tutorial9.net/wp-content/uploads/2008/07/tutsbuzz.jpg

Tutsbuzz (http://www.tutsbuzz.com/)

Becoming one of the top tutorial directories out there is a tough job, but Tutsbuzz is one of the few sites out there that seems capable of doing it.* The site is managed by a seemingly very active group, and is constantly updated with new tutorials under several categories.
