For a good user experience, it is always a good idea to display a "how to" on a  web page that requires an action from a user.

Embedded Help System is a wonderful jQuery plugin for creating visual and animated usage guides on a web interface.

It can be easily added into any existing web page and can display tip boxes that shows + explains the steps of an action. Or, it can perform an animated display of a mouse guiding the user on "things to do".

The plugin gets the settings from a JSON file and can focus on an element for a given period, style it (to emphasize the importance) and more.

There are various demos provided that are worth checking to see the functionality better (click the links on the left bar of the demo page).

Webportio is a website that offers 100+ free graphic resources for Adobe Fireworks (the collection is growing regularly).

Items include buttons, calendars, forms, ribbons, sliders and many other ones. They are very well-categorized so you can find a specific object quickly.

All graphic files are vector-based which makes customizing easier and have a good structure of layers.

Even if you're not a Fireworks user, resources can still be handy as they come in .PNG format.
