UI Utopia

Apr 6

Christina Wodtker the person behind the site eleganthack.com and the founder of the online magazine boxesandarrows.com has created a 'blog' style site dedicated to Widgets and UI element design.

The site details many important design techniques used in web design, from the simplicity of alert feedback to pagination and link styles.

I think Christina is using this blog to document website styles that she feels are worth remembering, (very much like an artists scrapbook) and im blogging it here for my future reference too.

Wonderful work of Carl de Keyzer

Apr 26

Carl de Keyzer has a wonderful portfolio of images at his site (created by Group94), The flash driven portfolio contains well over 1000 images and is presented with an introduction screen that is one of the very few intros that ive actually wanted to see again as opposed to hitting the skip button.

The portfolio is so vast I wont even attempt to mention its content here, go and see for yourself at carldekeyzer.com
