Graffletopia

OmniGraffle is fantastic. Its useful, shiny, and it allows me to show people what my thoughts look like visually, even if it scares them a bit. Perha one of the most useful a licatio of OmniGraffle is for plotting out infrastructure of some kind; network ma flow chart company hierarchies. The only i ue with OmniGraffle out of the box is that it comes with a fairly paltry selection of symbols and shapes to use when creating your masterpiece. Is that purple square the Executive VP of Finance, or is it the refrigerator in the break room?

Lucky for those of us too lazy to go looking for images on our own, Patrick Crowley of iCalShare has setup Graffletopia, as site dedicated to OmniGraffle stencils. (A stencil is a collection of reusable images or symbols.) Some of the stencils available are amazingly well done, and include such ecific categories as Cisco network switches and Sun server hardware.

All stencils are provided free of charge, and users are encouraged to submit their own.
