  • Favorite sites, blogs, etc. for inspiration and keeping"up to date"?

    #1
    Just curious what graphic design sites/blogs/etc. you guys like to look at on a regular basis for inspiration and to keep up to date on things. I have some of my own, but I am always looking for something more, and something new. Thanks!!

    I have searched for layout and design sources before, but usually find myself copying the style instead of taking inspiration from it. My main source of inspiration and keeping in touch is this forum. I read what this community of professionals posts and is capable of and it makes me want to do my job better.

    I also look at a lot of decorating blogs for color ideas and to help me step out of my comfortable little design bubble.

      I actually don't have any at the moment, but if you'd care to mention some of your own, I'd be interested in taking a look at them.

                  More I like: Behance.net, beastpieces.com, ohsobeautifulpaper.com, a few others I can't think of now, but I also like to look over sites' blog rolls of those I find interesting.

                      The drunk shuffle comment made me chuckle - I see that.
                      What does this sentence mean "In that space above the type, in lovely contrast to all that empty space below. "

                      Just wondering if there are others out there who have the same problems as me. Sometimes when a client comes to me for a design, I'll send them my CB to fill out, after that there are times when I never...

                      If you go to page 1 while viewing under latest activity you can see the new postings directly under the original post. It's all a bit backwards right now.

                      Not fun enough. It sorta says drunk shuffle. Or wonky bowling pins. I imagine it more like a kids' hand painting but with feet stamps. Just shit everywhere. In that space above the type, in lovely contrast...
