Strictly in terms of design, what are your top three site picks?
Please do not list your own sites. I know you think they are tops.

If you also can say a couple things that appeal to you about the sites design feel free to do so.

What about sites I simply own but dont run :-p

Anyway, it matters on genre-
pwebtech.com - hosting
yahoo.com - bloody fast loading
ogaming.com [formerly mine, but not this design] - just something about it that I really like.

I do like the color scheme on these forums a lot!

http://visuallyinfected.cjb.net - forums
http://ccs.com - skateboarding
http://paintballgear.com - paintball

2 advanced rocks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

Google- for simplicity
teamxbox.com- very cool design
yahoo- useful

http://www.softwaretipsandtricks.com - Quality

Two I would pick (based on design, not content):

• BBC News - They have got so much high quality content, but still have pages which load fast and look good.
• Anything by Pixelbrick - Although most of their sites are similar, I think they look very impressive (I loved what they did to Hostrocket)

www.google.com <---fast load time
www.webmaster-talk.com <---i like the colors and the layout
www.party931.com <---they just give me the names to trance songs i want to download, so they are cool

really like the 2 Advanced ,

I really like this site aswell
http://www.egomedia.com/ have your speakers on and clikc the classic one , check out there film

I personally think these are the best:

http://www.colarity.com/ (great look)
http://www.google.com/ (very organized, clear, and great placement of ads)
http://www.ashben.net/ (loads fast, organized, looks great)
http://www.protinium.net/
Also, that flash website about horoscopes that asked for a review here. I forgot it's name, but I do remember it began with an "A", lol.

Darn...I bet there's about a hundred websites that I'm forgetting, lol. I just love the look of so many websites, especially a professional look. However, at the same time, I'm also a critical reviewer. So it really depends.

The last two not only have great websites, but they also are web designers. If you like their work, you can have them design a site for you too!

i think it has potential, how bout you?

if u can tell what the site is abt and what it is for..

then we can tell u..

the flash menu is good

2A, Neostream and Fantasy Interfaces...

The FI corp site isn't that stunning yet many of their client sites such as Conspiracy Games and Firestorm PC give you a taste of their real capabilities.

Other noteworthy design sites include Mono Edge, Area Design, WhosWe and dform(one).shiftfunc.
