CSSBeauty.com - Design Resource for Inspiration, Jobs

One of the setbacks of working in a creative industry is lack of inspiration. When nothing stirs you to create, your work can become overwrought and tedious. Of course if you work in graphic design, that can be avoided with a design inspiration resource like CSSBeauty. The site is meant to rouse up brainwaves, showcasing exquisite designs from around the world. CSSBeauty isn’t merely a gallery though; it’s a multipurpose community resource which acts as a job board, a discussion forum, a news aggregator, and a contest. Designers can submit their unique HTML template designs to win an iPod shuffle. Barring that, they can browse through designs, find out about the latest design news, and discuss things like Verdana vs. Georgia. There’s something there for everyone. Sign up is free, and there are feeds so you can keep up with all the latest goings on.

“CSSBEAUTY™ is a project focused on providing its audience with a database of well designed CSS based websites from around the world.

Its purpose is to showcase designers' work and to act as a small portal to the CSS design community.”

CSSBeauty is an all purpose design resource for graphic artists and designers. Everything is centralized, which makes it a great one stop source for design inspiration, jobs, and discussion. For designers looking for a muse or for some motivation, this is the place to go.

How often are new designs added? Given the saturated state of this market, what will make CSSBeauty stand out and gain ground?
