The second level explains that best resources where designers can steal are from themselves. They can tap into loads of their past designs that were never used or completed, or from their designs that have already been successful in order to reinvent a new design. This kind of stealing is quite helpful in molding their own distinctive design style to use as a selling point for clients. The third level involves stealing from discreet sources. Albert Einstein is noted for quoting, “The secret to creativity is knowing how to hide your sources.” For designers easiest way to do this is to use sources already hidden. Even great artists can’t be accused of stealing if their rare jewels of inspiration are from lost, bypassed, forgotten ideas which they have successfully incorporated with their own distinctive style. To graphic designers, they have to really research and rummage for necessary unused and forgotten ideas applicable for their design.

One must be careful in copying from well-known sources, though. It is best to copy inspiration and not exact output. To fully summarize, all graphid designers out there, there’s no problem in copying, even Picasso, in one of his quotes told about necessity of copying. However, it is best to be careful in what you copy and how you copy it. -30-

This brings us to yet another factor that makes Content Management Systems so helpful. Because more people have access to updating and maintaining website, information is generally much more accurate and recent. Updating older pages manually in order to keep them relevant to changing information cannot only be frustrating, but also repetitive and time consuming. In today’s competitive online market, up-to-date information is crucial to your business’s credibility and success.

Content Management System un-complicates this task by making global (site-wide) changes through alteration of a single file. Because all of site’s information is stored in a central location, when that information is altered, every page on that site which contains that specific info is updated immediately. Just like that! This allows editors or website’s author to write, edit, and publish information to website without having to submit all of material to Webmaster. No inconsistencies, less proofreading—less work altogether.

Another tremendous advantage to using a Content Management System is link maintenance. Many times, even Webmasters make mistake of deleting or moving content that is linked to multiple areas within a site. When this occurs, links that are not removed then become broken links because file to which they refer is either deleted or in another location and reference is invalid. When a person using a Content Management System deletes or updates location of a file, each of links relative to that file are automatically updated, therefore eliminating any risk of orphaned links and that nasty little ‘page not found’ experience for site’s visitors.

Overall, it is quite obvious that implementation of a Content Management System is ideal for a wide variety of websites. From news sites to corporate sites— all way to small business sites and personal web pages, using a Content Management System combines convenience of ease of use along with professionalism of clean web design and up-to-date material.
