I realize this is now strongly veering into the realm of off-topic,
however, I wanted to drop in one of my fave resources for site design:
	http://netdiver.net/
Among other things, netdiver scrounges the net for well designed sites.
There must be 100s of sites featured on netdiver. While it's true there
are a lot of same-old-same-old sites on netdiver, some of them are
same-old because they did it first. :)

Another site I really like for design ideas is:
	http://terminus1525.ca/
This is an on-line gallery, so it's not Web Design so much as design. The
framework is done by a Toronto-based group and uses www.drupal.org as the
base for the system.
