Zen Garden Gone Stale?
Has the Zen Garden lost it's punch? I haven't seen anything new there is a long, long, long time.
I go there hoping for some good new eye candy and get disappointed every time!

I haven't been there for ages! Always used to go there for the same reason as you Roo. Maybe Dave Shea has just been too busy to add any new sites, maybe he's just not recieving any good ones anymore. There are now a pile of other sites out there that do almost the same thing as the Zen Garden.
What I want to know is how these sites get any traffic, and why people are still building more 'yay for CSS' sites when there are clearly far too many around already! We get the idea: CSS is good for design, let's move on!
It is a shame to hear that the Zen Garden hasn't been updated though, it's so good when I'm lacking inspiration!

I know, it seems like there is a new CSS gallery site up every week! It's kind of rediculous.
Zen garden was originally a proof of concept - to show what CSS can do (although most of those designs rely heavily on background images). Maybe they feel that they don't need to prove that anymore since you can use actual sites as examples instead.
According to the RSS feed the last update was back in February!
