- SPRFRKR, on 10/15/2009, -0/+7<blink>AWESOME ARTICLE!</blink>
- boozinf, on 10/15/2009, -1/+7Why do these types of articles invariably feature sites nobody gives a crap about? This one even features the design of a site... about design. Talk about meta-onanism.
- Turious, on 10/15/2009, -0/+4Your insatiable lust for lens flare will be the death of us all!

- ggggbabybabybab, on 10/15/2009, -0/+2Wait why isn't "Taking half naked pictures of yourself in the mirror from an upward angle" one of the tips? It always worked for 15 year olds on myspace.
- jpdbaugh, on 10/15/2009, -4/+6Great article, definitely very interesting.
- cre8tivate, on 10/15/2009, -1/+3These are the principles that are at the core of graphic design. These principles have been severely bastardized by wannabes that think just because they have photoshop skills that they are designers. Although the web's design has improved dramatically over the years, getting back to these basic principles will make the web much better at communicating to its users.
My biggest design pet peeve: Centered copy...it may look nice to you, but it's a bitch to read. - yourpetstore, on 10/22/2009, -0/+2I can't believe people are critiquing this. I thought it was excellent! Examples, explanations, very thorough. Don't hate people....
- greenbirdmedia, on 10/22/2009, -0/+2This is a great post, with real principles. So many of these types of posts are filled with meaningless information.
- BoneStamp, on 10/15/2009, -0/+1Ya, boobies make everything better... especially girls.
- aliqayyum, on 10/30/2009, -0/+1awesome article for each designer.
thanks - Avenir, on 10/15/2009, -2/+3Most web design articles are full of nonsense, or at best intangibles. This one is different - it actually has genuine advice and practical examples. Great stuff.
- sapphirecut, on 10/15/2009, -3/+3The examples help a lot, otherwise i would have no clue.
