We’re going to be just steps from the Arlington Street Green Line T stop and the Boston Common – not too shabby!

TheBestDesigns.com: This one is my personal favorite – it’s updated (almost) daily with fresh new designs.  Features a solid mix of Flash, CSS, and UI design.

SiteInspire.net: A good variety of designs mostly focusing on clean, simple CSS layouts.

The CSS Awards: A gallery of Flash-heavy sites – this collection really takes high-end development to a new level.

Creattica: Probably the most extensive gallery of impressive design work.  This site combines CSS, Flash, Photoshop, 3D, business cards, advertisements, and more.  My 829 Studios designs for Wilderness House and Choice Camps are featured in the CSS gallery.

CSSRemix.com: A great collection of CSS and graphics work, but not updated as frequently as the others.
