Bitfoundry
A gorgeous site for a web design studio. I love the use of typography and dramatic, and large, slogan. The slogan works really well to draw people in, as does the slider of recent projects.

Bjarke Clauson-Kaas
A well structured and intuitive portfolio site for a web designer. I like the use of colour and motion that the arrow elements give the site. The gallery is simple but functional, with colour fading in as you scroll over an entry.

Above the Fold
A brilliant site for a book on design! Admittedly it would look bad if the site for a book by a web designer was shoddy, but this is a delight. I love the static header and consistent use of colours and design elements.

Pixel Stadium
A clean and well though out site for a web designer. The use of a large focal header works well to draw in the attention of any potential clients. I particularly like the use of typeface throughout.

An awesome site for professional windsurfer Sean O'Brien. I love the graphic design ideas and how it all fits in a single window with no scrolling! The simple drop down navigation bar is a nice touch, as is the detailing on the logo!

An excellent portfolio site that immediately draws you in! The use of a gallery as the central focus works and brings colour and life to the site. I particularly like the little details that make all the difference. Details such as the arrows that guide you in and the ripped effect of the gallery items.

Boque
A brilliant layout for a photography site that uses a relatively dark brown palette which draws attention to the photographs. I particularly like the space given to the header.

Cheeky Monkey
This site features some really great graphical elements. The excellently illustrated monkey character stands in front of a jQuery chalkboard with smooth transitions. This is a really nice looking page that has been kept fairly simple with content and messaging, which made room for some eye-catching artwork.

An interesting looking site with lots of bright colors and crazy graphics. I actually like the lower parts of the page best. The content is organized in unique but attractive ways.

Help Scout
A really nice looking coming soon page with fun illustrations, bright colors and a subtle depth of field illusion. It is a nice touch that the water bottle is an indicator of how complete the site is at this point.

A beautiful dark theme that makes great use of color and transparency to create different levels. I like the hint of a bokeh background and the rounded corners on the image gallery.
