Website of the week – Inspiration for webdesigner #1

wonkastudio — Tue, 16 Mar 2010 20:24:30 +0000

I’m really proud today to start this new serie of posts on 2expertsdesign.com. Let me explain to you the concept : Every week I will publish here a selection of 7 really nice webdesigns to fuel your inspiration and your creativity.

These posts will be perfect for webdesigners who want to find new incredible webdesigns, improve their inspiration, or to create a really nice library of webdesigns (if you save the pictures on your computer).

I would like to do a really simple post, it’s why the post will be composed of just the webdesign like that :

Title

Picture

How the design is cool

And the url to visit this incredible website

It’s easy The last information you must know is that these posts are written and proposed by our partner One inspiration per day a nice CSS gallery. Every website you can find on these posts, you will find them on Oneinspirationperday.com too.

So, now the first webdesign inspiration

Mr and friends

On this website I like particulary the menu on the top, the slide up is really a good idea! And I already love the big font used on the left! To finish, don’t miss the portfolio because the galery is really nice (page OUR WORK The creative edge).

Haafe

Usualy I love the simple website (Kiss) then it’s normal I love it, with just one page you cannot do any mistake “your enjoy my products? Buy them”. And of course I adore the vintage cartoon illustration.

Powery Base

Mix the wood with an iPhone and you get this website, really nice wood effect on the top page, and I especially love the little gallery on the middle right and the little stamp overhead the iphone illustation.

Moshi Monster

I love all on this webdesign, because when I open it I imagine to enter in a magical and incredible world! The animeted background on the homepage is really nice, and when you click on a link you can view a CSS version already fine and beautiful. A really good job.

The farmer and the chef

The feeling on this website is really fine and logical because each graphic element is drawed using the same style. The wood style is everywhere but what for a good job!

Club Juicy

I cannot say that it is an incredible webdesign, but I love the background with these guys holding the page, and the vintage logo too!

Media Loot

One of websites as I love them! Clean and corporate, If you want to know what I love on this website … almost everything. The menu and the header are clean and beautiful especially the logotype and the green button. I also find that the blue used on this website is really nice, and the footer, did you have the design of these lists? Certainly my best one of this selection.

Thank you very much to you to read my post, if you enjoy these inspirations, don’t forget to visit my website One inspiration per day!

+40 best icons packs that webdesigners should have

wonkastudio — Sun, 07 Mar 2010 10:59:05 +0000

When you create a new template you have to think about lot of things : the colours, the pictures, the texts, the links etc. For each of them, I think there is one thing particularly complex and difficult to do, I mean the creation and use of icons in webdesign.

In fact, you must take time to find the best icons (especially on a website like www.iconarchive.com) and it’s really expensive! Secondary, sometimes you cannot find a good icon to illustrate an action, and the last thing you have to do, is to design it… you know that some websites can use, at least, 10 different icons (as an administration dashboard) it’s take lot of time and it’s really hard!

If you are a webdesigner you have certainly understood what I tried to explain to you! And you should know that every week, several websites publish great and useful icons packs.

Then, why do you continue loosing precious time, creating new icons for each of your all new web designs projects? Start to work with the different graphic elements, it’s quick easy and mostly FREE!

For your next project Look at this selection of the best perfect icons packs I found on the Web. If you know other download icons links, please post them into the comments.
