thinkvitamin.com— Glossy buttons, ornamental backgrounds, futuristic interfaces. We’ve all been guilty at one time or another of committing the 7 design-isms in this article from Larissa Meek. But that’s okay, she tells us, they’re classics for a reason.

I think the idea behind the -isms is you can apply it to any generic design genre.It's not meant to be an art class lecture, but a clever way to describe different online design trends. Don't get your feathers so ruffled haas.
Holy crap, what a great article. This is definitely a few levels above the usual articles on "style" as applied to web design. It reminds me of the book Fresh Styles For Web Designers: Eye Candy From The Underground.Link to Amazon's page of the book: <a class="user" href="http://tinyurl.com/2gddeo">http://tinyurl.com/2gddeo</a>Yeah, it's an old book but still a great read and was pretty influential on me personally back in the day.
Give me some tips on when to use a style, when not to use it, what other styles this one goes with and which ones it will clash with. Maybe even discuss some variants of each style. As it is, she just seems like some random graphic designer who can mimic what she sees<a class="user" href="http://www.adidasshoess.com">http://www.adidasshoess.com</a>

It's a great article, but the author really should take more care throwing around all these "isms". It's plain to see that there's no background in art history there. #5.1 is a perfect example. It has nothing at all to do with futurism.Actual example of futurism: <a class="user" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Blast2.jpg">http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Blast2.jpg</a>
