This is the interactive ad agency digitas’s website. I really like the concept behind it; using different boxes that only give you a vague picture of what it could be about so you have to find out for yourself. It’s very creative, and I’ve noticed that most ad agency’s have cool, creative websites to showcase what they are all about. This one is probably my favorite. Check it out here.

As I was looking for a non-profit for my web design project, I stumbled on this website: 40+ Inspirational Non-Profit Website Designs. Perfect. This website stood out to me because it has a beautiful use of color. It’s very simple and communicates their point efficiently. It also provides the call to action in different places with several ways to get other information as well.
I just wanted to share my favorite website…not only do I love the clothes on the website, but I also love the way it is all laid out. Every couple of days or so, the website is updated and I think it is all put together very well. All of the pictures represent the clothing well and are all great pictures. Hopefully this helps for those doing a website with fashion and clothing.
As I am trying to get ideas for my website I have been trying to seek out what looks good versus what does not. I found this website where it shows good versus bad examples of websites. Take a look and hopefully it will help you too.

For those who want to use a dark background with text on top, this is a great discussion of which fonts are most readable in that type of situation. I definitely needed some guidance on what fonts are legible in white on black for my magazine, and I think this could be helpful for the web design project as well. The discussion thread can be found here.
