Angular
Angular is a responsive WordPress Theme that's perfect for a design portfolio. I love the simplicity of the theme and the clean design throughout. The way the grid responds to different browsers and zoom levels ensures that your portfolio always looks great.

JLern
A rather intriguing site, not due to its content but due to its unique layout. The rigid horizontal layout certainly makes an impression, although seems a little impractical when considering how many different sized screens and browsers people use.

WP Ninja
WP Ninja has a fun ninja theme that is carried out well in illustrations throughout the site. The homepage has a ton of content but it is organized quite well and flows in a logical fashion. Not an easy task but pulled off nicely here.

A nicely illustrated page with bright colors and nice, large graphics. I especially like the stitched treatment in the logo, perfect for the homemade nature of the site.

Cafundo Estudio
This is one crazy site concept. There is a giant rooster head, some Tim Burton-esque 3D typography, apstract tentacle shapes, vertical lines and star bursts. From just reading that description you would picture a hideous site but it actually looks great! Nice work.

Bad Blood
A nice looking site with a light noisy background and sketchy fonts. The jQuery slider is multidimensional and not only slides up and down to change content but can also change the large preview within each section. A great way to fit tons of content right on the homepage.

An attractive site with a textured denim background and a nice script headline. I especially like the multi-colored bar in the header and the ribbon with the Twitter icon.

Its Workable
This site follows the typical corporate web service layout we have seen so much lately, but it pulls it off nicely. I like the colors, large screenshots and simple navigation area. The large sign up button is no doubt a winner for snagging conversions.

Fire Task
A simple coming soon page for a new GTD Mac application. The simplicity here is perfect for the intentions of the page. The developers just want to give you a sneak peak so they avoid distracting you with lots of copy or feature explanations, just a single screenshot set against a dark background.
