  5. I love clean and simple designs. Works well with strong content, both graphical and textual. Doesn’t really work without these elements though. The collection portrait this well, a good set to showcase.

    Wow, great sites. I recently noticed dumbnudge.com, a webcomic site. While the comic looks bad, I really liked the simple webdesign.

  17. Wow, thanks for putting this together, it will come in very handy as reference work and inspiration.

    I am a big fan of good minimal design and typography like that used on the Mark Boulton piece.

    That said, I’m at a loss for words as to how cool the character design is for the work on Srburns – absolutely top notch illustration.
