Okay, every time I see the thread in here called "Sites that look good," I think it's a list of sites people think look good. Since it's not, this thread is.

Post links to sites that you think look good! Feel free to give your reasons, or not. The only rule is that you shouldn't post a site you designed. Even if it's the best site you've ever seen.

I'll cheat and post a link to the CSS Zen Garden, mostly for those who haven't seen it yet. Lots of awesome designs there:

http://www.csszengarden.com/

My current favorite design there:

http://www.csszengarden.com/?cssfile=/182/182.css&page=0

It's my favorite because I'm currently into that whole retro look.

I'll go for:

  • http://www.zeldman.com/ - The Zeldman! nice monochromatic colour scheme, without being boring Smiling
  • http://www.cameronmoll.com/ - Cameron Moll, designer extroadinaire (even if he does write for Sitepoint - yuk!) this is of course home of the much heralded Wicked Worn Look
  • http://www.airbagindustries.com/ - another blog, but more life orientated, instead of hardcore design/development. This is so clean, but damn clever. Have noticed that Zeldman and Moll's blogs feel 'heavier' when scrolling, but this is light and easy on the mouse Wink

Next person!

Just thought of another one!

http://joshuaink.com/ - lovely design, some swearing (so be warned Smiling ), and serious attitude.

He's like the Chris Moyles of Web Design...
