This website has a wonderfully simple layout that reminds of of really classy design in the 90s. I like the centered focal point with the stylish typography and abstract shapes.

This site features an awesome chameleon graphic to convey the idea that the designer is adaptable. I love the artwork, typography and colors used here. Definitely a great site design!

This site features a really clean and professional design and plenty of high quality photography. I really like the navigation area with the pop out hover effects. The lightly textured background is also a nice touch.

An attractive site with plenty of whitespace and a nice wooden background. I like the little arrows and paths drawn over the background as well as the continuing theme in the image slider.

I cannot decide if this site is hideous or beautiful, but it is certainly unique! The out of control illustrations cover every inch of the long homepage and the head of the monster at the top pops off and stays with you as you scroll!

Usually we feature the header of a site but I found the lower content to be much more interesting here. I love the arrangement of the typography and the old style illustrations on the textured background. It definitely gives the site a book feel that I would like to see accomplished in the header.

This site has a wonderfully unique design that plays heavily on the title and uses a ribbon coming out of a blender as a banner for text. I love the color scheme, original concept and slight background animations.

This site features some beautiful typographical artwork that has a cool depth of field illusion. Notice how heavily the designer uses contrast to grab your attention in both the header, main image, and dark inset type.

A fairly simple but attractive portfolio page with a horizontal image slider as the main visual element. Note the repetitive use of the dot pattern and the generous use of whitespace.

This page header is bursting with awesome graphics screened and faded onto the background texture. I like the mixture of city and nature graphics in the same space. This reinforces the coexistence element of the message.

This site utilizes very subtle amounts of texture in the background, large thumbnails, minimalist icons and awesome web type. I particularly like the shadow treatment on the gallery thumbnails as well as the script font used on the active state of the navigation.

This site uses lots of rich textures and beautiful colors to create a really attractive theme. The grunge effects are applied in jsut the right amount and in just the right places and the icons are kept simple to fit in with the overall feel of the page.

I love how simple and attractive this site is. The gray gradient background works perfectly with the inset box at the top. I also really like the integration of the Dribbble feed complete with animated hover effects. Great work!

Panoetic uses a textured backgrounds and lots of random but interesting artwork scattered around the page to achieve and almost scrapbook-ish look. The animating thumbnail hover effect is particularly fun to play with and kept me busy for a solid thirty seconds trying to activate all of them at once.

An interesting site with a darkened photographic background and unique vector work. I love the logo for the site as well as the grungy tye at the top of the page.

A simple but effective portfolio site that makes great use of a Twitter feed. I like the typography displayed here and the muted grayscale color palette.

This friendly looking site features a rich primary color palette and a very web 2.0 feel. The sketches over the photograph make the space more inviting and lighthearted and the use of icons really helps break up the content into manageable chucnks.

A nice looking site with an interesting mixture of structured and organic design. There is an overall theme revolving around a jagged squiggly line graphic that is repeated in different ways throughout the page.

This simple but stunning web page uses high contrast graphics and deep colors to grab your attention. The hot air balloon is a nice touch and I love that big headline with heavily recessed type.

A really great looking portfolio page with super thin typography, a subtle background texture and even a little bit of humor. I love the contrast of the yellow on the black. These two colors always make a bold statement when combined and the result here is a fairly classy theme.
