For those of us that experience frequent creative blocks, it’s nice to have a handy little bag of links to get our juices flowing. Whenever I reach an impasse, I find myself returning to a select group of websites to see what others have been creating. Collectively, these places have provided the inspiration (as well as the means) for many of my proudest design-related accomplishments!

If you don’t already browse these websites, you are unwittingly forgoing some of the best inspirational material on the web.

Smashing Magazine – is a web “magazine” with tons of useful/inspirational links.
CSS Container – a monthly list of beautifully-implemented websites.
Inspiration Up – another dynamic compilation of gorgeous web design.
I Love Typography – the name says it all… if you like typography, check it out!
BittBox – this site has cool news regarding design and design techniques.
Deziner Folio – some inspirational examples of 2D and 3D design, as well as tutorials, etc.
