Nike always bring us great websites, at least in some aspect or another. The Nike+ website is no different. It's a beautiful display of gloss, colors, product photos, flash videos and, unfortunately, a slow and overloaded user interface. I really love the use of red.

Gringo's flashfolio is extraordinary. The site takes a cue from OS X's cubespin fx, and also makes use of an orgy of glossy reflection visuals. If this doesn't scare you, I can reveal that this outstanding site also features an entourage of navigational quirks and peculiarities. If you love Flash, you should love this one as well. If you're into portfolio works, there should be more than enough to satisfy your hunger as well.

A beautiful one page layout straight out of São Paulo. The logo graphic/animation is especially striking, and makes you want to cuddle up with this portfolio site. It looks really great, you probably know how I feel about all-encompassing flash solutions like this one. Everything is done inside one huge flash-file instead of turning to html/xhtml, which makes for an inaccessible and slow user experience. Still, it's a refreshing and lovely site worth a closer look, especially for its aesthetic qualities.

Sporting the aesthetics as wefail, and even some of the same kind of humor, the all-Russian Converse site is another Flash success. Even though there's some similarities to several classic productions, RedKeds' production is a fresh breath of inspiration from the east. The music encompasses this perfectly.

Shane Mielke, formerly known as Pixelranger as well as being long time member of the 2advanced crew, is back with a brand new portfolio. I love that he's he's toned down the use of Flash, and instead gone for a simple one-page layout. This perfectly accentuates the many Flash based works.

As much as I'm waiting for the PS3 launch here in Norway in March, I still have to give some credit to Nintendo for the job they've done with the Wii. And I'm not only talking about what they've done with the console itself. Most of all, I'm impressed with how they're marketing this product. From the get-go, they've made Sony's Playstation 3 look like an arrogant, stuck-up moron. I'm not buying a Wii, I'm buying a PS3. But at the same time, I'm loving Nintendo's delicate XHTML/CSS + Flash website. The PS3 website, on the other hand, is different story.

Brazilian graphic designer Marcos Paulo is only 20 years old, but already has an impressive portfolio to show off. He makes use of the classic one-page layout in combination with delicious colors and subtle Flash animation.

My guess is that a lot of you will be surprised by this one, and wonder why it's here. Following the trend of listing Zopa, I also decided to list this corporate boring site here on Styleboost. The reason I'm listing the Lavasoft site, and not some flashy portfolio site, is because this one stands out. It's unusual, glossy and good looking. It seems kind of well structured as well. If you look at other sites in the security, anti-virus and spyware removal business, the Lavasoft site is king. Their latest xhtml/css makeover does wonders for the company, I would imagine. If not, at least the gloss sure is shiny.

Photographer Phillip Toledano's portfolio is sweet. What struck me first about this portfolio is the way it's made use of javascript instead of Flash to implement an unusual form of navigation. I'm not sure it works perfectly, but it's not far from it. I like the concept of free sideways scrolling for photos. What's more, the photos are amazing and there are some sweet wallpapers available.

Ultra slick Flash portfolio featuring some addictive rolling crayons. There's no denying that these folks know what they're doing. The contents function as delicious candy inside this shiny wrapping.
