Bryan Veloso is back again with yet another complete makeover of his world renowned Avalonstar. Once more he manages to blow my mind with stunning graphics and a truck load of coolness. Bryan is paying more attention to little graphical details than even Steve Jobs' posse. However much I like his designs, though, I still wish Avalonstar would be a little more clearly organized visually. That is, a little less cluttered. It may just be me, but I'm having a hard time finding my way around this beauty.

"Space Collective.org is a cross-media information and entertainment channel for post-ideological, non-partisan, forward thinking terrestrials." That quote pretty much sums it up. Oh, and it's all wrapped in a pretty, pretty interface. I believe this is a site I will spend much more time with in the future.

Not only did Lokesh Dhakar develop the beautifully simply Lightbox JS script. He has also crafted a blog design that strips it all down to a flat greyscale design that contains no interface graphics. The only graphics on this site are images to accompany the blog posts. Everything else is CSS, markup and text. Very impressive.

Made in ENGLAND by Gentlemen is made by Simon Cook who is very proud of his big moustache. This is essentially his blog where he feeds us with fun and interesting stuff, including some wonderful desktop images. The design is highly detailed and the color scheme is to die for. There's a lot that's worth looking at/reading here, too. Make sure to take a look at the favicon in Firefox!

Ars Thanea is creative studio focused on new technologies, creation and design. Based in Warsaw, Poland, the guys behind Ars Thanea decided to make a blog. And what a blog it is! They've crafted, in my opinion, the ultimate "designer's" blog design along with wonderful, outstanding contents. If you're interested in the design scene, this is a blog to follow. I love how they're using Flash for multiple images. A very elegant and clean design. Just how I like it.

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.
