………………………..¯””^~~~~^” - cryonix, on 09/26/2008, -1/+18what sucks is the list is just png screenshots of the websites and not links to them or even its name. He starts everything with "This site uses..." then image. Google Cache didn't catch the images and the source code doesn't show the names or url of the websites the article is talking about... even if it wasn't down I would have to assume I would bury it for not giving proper links.
so buried. - kingofkolt, on 09/26/2008, -3/+18Already down?
- GlitchEnzo, on 09/26/2008, -1/+14Since the site is currently down, then check out this similar article:
http://www.smashingmagazine.com/2008/01/03/hand-dr ... - thisisjason, on 09/26/2008, -0/+12I agree, 30+ websites out of the whole internet does seem a bit excessive.
- Topheroo, on 09/26/2008, -0/+11Needs more bandwidth.
- renegadeafk, on 09/26/2008, -1/+9hand drawn web server it seems
- subterfuge, on 09/26/2008, -6/+12i can haz mirror?
- n064, on 09/26/2008, -2/+8thanks for your life story which no one cares about...
- Treshnell, on 09/26/2008, -0/+6Normally, every time you view a page, the server prints it off and sends it to your computer for viewing. These are hand drawn. Just think of all the artists sitting there trying to keep up with the supply of Diggers. It just doesn't work very fast or for very long.
- writr, on 09/25/2008, -2/+7I really like the desks with the notebook and blackberry.
- apophenic, on 09/26/2008, -0/+5nice, very 1995 "retro" with the splash page
- rblancarte, on 09/26/2008, -1/+6Geez, what are they hand drawing this website too?
- bebopredux, on 09/26/2008, -1/+6I've always admired Jeff Bridges' site:
http://www.jeffbridges.com/ - cadmiumpaint, on 09/26/2008, -4/+8this is going to be a tough trend to ape since most web "designers" have absolutely no artistic talent.
- Games4Life, on 09/26/2008, -1/+5I'm interested enough to wait around for a mirror.
- jerrolds, on 09/26/2008, -2/+6aaaaaannnddd down.
- Clbull, on 09/26/2008, -0/+3Thanks captain obvious
- dnields, on 09/26/2008, -0/+3Too late.
- FTLJohnson, on 09/26/2008, -0/+3Ok, well, the original has started loading before your mirrors... therefore, I dub these mirrors: SUCK.
- ruarctb, on 09/26/2008, -1/+3As cool as the article sounds... bury for broke.
- lancert, on 09/26/2008, -9/+11Should be titled, "30+ Websites that Feature a Hand-Drawn Style but should be hosted somewhere else"
- MtheoryX, on 09/27/2008, -1/+3You can call a turd a fudge pop...it doesn't mean it tastes like chocolate.
- jeffkee, on 09/26/2008, -0/+2I was going to say the same damn thing.. There's probably 6 figures in websites that use black backgrounds so shall we stay away from that too?
- MacBookForMe, on 09/25/2008, -0/+2Perfect pitch for me, as well!
- jggube, on 09/26/2008, -3/+5Excellent collection.
- doiveo, on 09/25/2008, -4/+6The hand-drawn feeling gives many of these a clean but warm look. Far too many 2.0 designs are cold and too controlled. It would be interesting to test these for marketing and brand impression.
- rwallen, on 09/27/2008, -1/+2I hand drew my top banner http://ryanallen.com it has a cool parallax effect :)
- KatoHamatsu, on 09/26/2008, -2/+3Beautiful, although if too many people start doing this, it'll get old quick.
- jonespr, on 09/25/2008, -3/+4I have always loved those kind of designs, but 30+ hmm maybe its about time to try something else. But nice list though.
- haqattaqq, on 09/26/2008, -0/+1Here's my favorite hand drawn website - by the jackasses who made the funniest remake of TOP GUN evar...
http://www.swededfilm.com - punkcat, on 09/27/2008, -1/+2http://www.joepunk.com
- campodiez, on 09/26/2008, -3/+4Those are really beautiful designs!
- BossX, on 09/27/2008, -1/+2+1
That is dope - theadvinci, on 09/30/2008, -0/+1Hate to be the party pooper but hand drawn websites are mostly ugly as hell. And I don't mean it in a good way.
- Afrochu, on 09/27/2008, -0/+1Damn that's a ***** looking webpage.
- alexlinebrink, on 10/03/2008, -0/+1Here's another (yes, it's mine... but come on --- it's pretty good):
http://www.thatindiedude.com - hartley, on 09/27/2008, -0/+1yeah my 6mbit/512kbit dsl connection is no where near "broadband" speed.
And I don't have anything special, its just a normal plan from Bellsouth/AT&T. - knuckles, on 09/26/2008, -0/+1Thanks for that link. It was definitely a very enjoyable site to cruise though. Jeff really is "The Dude".
- inactive, on 09/27/2008, -1/+2My favorite check it, since there aren't any mirrors to actual content:
http://www.afrotechmods.com/ - FTLJohnson, on 09/26/2008, -1/+2started trying to load both mirrors about 2 min ago... will post again when either has loaded...
- leighmcculloch, on 09/27/2008, -1/+1Don't forget http://www.snakeanddean.com/ - hand drawn site + comic.
- pixelperfect, on 09/26/2008, -2/+2I am glad you said most - not all. Because that is one thing that I pride myself on - I am good at both.
though, I call myself a Web Developer + Graphic Designer. - Swerengen, on 10/01/2008, -0/+0Props to all designers who choose to mix it up - people are way to happy to stare at generic ***** design.
The Web Needs More . . . PAISLEY! - gamefreak4321, on 09/27/2008, -1/+1When I saw the title the first thing that came to my mind was the game Sketchfighter 4000 alpha.
- obeattie, on 09/27/2008, -1/+1"In the past 5 years we ’ve seen an increasing trend of designers using a hand drawn style on their websites" — where did you pull this figure out of? Thin air?
Aside from that some of those are pretty cool. - ersuwei, on 09/28/2008, -0/+0sadasd
- Literaturfan, on 09/29/2008, -1/+1If I were more creative, I would create my own website, too! In a hand-drawn-style, of course!
