Huge Post!

BUT don’t forget you’ll not make good design in copying élements from other sites.

Good design is about the structure of the content and not about the design of the buttons…

cheers:)

Personally I get my inspiration from design magazines such as ‘.Net’ (a mag for Web Designers) and interior design mags.
I stay clear of those over-priced mags that just take photos of designers works and then think they can charge you $12.

I’d say there is more inspiration in reality than any magazine or website period.
Get out more, take a look around how nature does things, a few years ago I was inspired for a navigation set-up by the way the paths crossed in my local Woods!
