Awesome collection of pixel background patterns. This could come in VERY handy for site designs.
I just discovered that sitepoint makes it possible to turn a job into a contest. I’m definitely going to take advantage of this.
I’m not a huge fan of Flash, but I like the idea of having these transitions available to use in headers and such. Very reasonably priced and they don’t require me to learn Flash, so I’m all about that.
I really like this summary of sites. The images make it easy to scan through them and see the trends.
Good blog and resource for new bloggers. Some free stuff, too.
I like this free font, and I really like that it’s free even for commercial use (because I’d like to use it on designs for business blogs). The font itself is serif, more formal than some, very clean with good detailing.
I’ve seen some advice that I suspect is good: when looking for web design inspiration, look everywhere except web design galleries. 🙂 The point, of course, is to get inspiration from other media, and this site will help me do that.
I’m digging this design studio. I might outsource some work to him.
A seriously rockin’ church site. Not the same target audience as my church, but a lot of good ideas we can use, plus sweet retro design.
