Far too young for such skills, Booby Bobby Andersen, is one hot-shot pixel-perfect interface and icon designer. You've probably seen a lot of his crisp work already. This guy's talent has been acknowledged by some major companies who've made use of his services. This is one designer I'd love to hire for a project in the future.
(Styleboost is finally back after a little too long summer hiatus. Thanks to those of you who have sent me angry emails for not adding any new inspirational links this summer.)

After a period in hiatus, MacThemes is back with a brand new 2.0. The new site is similar but different. There has been given more attention to details, the bugs are gone and it seems to run quite a bit faster as well (if my memory serves me right, the speed change is quite significant). I love the new ruler over the top navigation. Beautiful transparency. This site is also a great source of inspiration through the themes listed there.

Orion Advisor Services is an operational service bureau for the Registered Investment Advisor. What does this mean? I have no idea. But the site sure looks glossy. And it features some great javascript fx.

Mint has a fresh new look. This is a double-deserved post on Styleboost. It's here because the promo site is a masterpiece. It's also here because the Mint application itself is one of the most beautiful "sites" (that's kind of what it is, after all) anyone has ever built. This marks a majorly important moment in the relatively short life of what we know as Mint. Shaun Inman does it again. Once again he makes me want to send him more of my hard earned cash. P.S. His personal site is also redesigned.

Details, details, details. This one is so glossy and graphics filled that you would think that I'd hate it. But the attention to details just makes this one jump out and kick you in the face. The graphics are great, the illustrations go hand-in-glove with the rest of the design, and the now classic web 2.0 they've pulled out of their hat just left me amazed. Especially after understanding what kind of company this is.

Even though this site really isn't cutting edge as far as web development goes, it sure is cutting edge in the illustration and graphic details department. The quality of the work is truly outstanding. I cannot put into words how much I'm impressed with the graphic details and the textures. This is only surpassed by the unbelievably cool illustrations.

Another sweet, sweet site design by Daniel Burka. This one is closely related to his work with Kevin Rose and Digg. Hopefully he will continue applying his unique style and graphics to new websites in the future. I especially love the way the navigation is laid out vertically, wrapping the green arrow around and behind the list - still keeping it slightly visible.

I really, really like the way Dan is presenting his works. The wrapping is delicate with great attention paid to the details. The subtle use of Flash makes the site feel dynamic and the color scheme gives attention to his work. This is a great example of how CSS and XHTML can be used without feeling too static and information-driven.

9 rules member Neil Patel write about anything related to online marketing, search engine optimization, and buzz marketing. I've found some good reads on there, and I'm sure to check out some more as soon as I have time. What strikes me most about his site, though, is how unbelievable pretty it is. The graphical details, the layout and the colors are just perfect.

Although Tick is still in beta, I've had a chance to try this new web app out for a short while. What first struck me with this site is how beautiful it is. Highly inspired by 37 signals' trademark design style, Tick takes this to another level with an increased attention to details. The second thing that struck me with Tick is that the service they're providing is just what I'm looking for.
