The results are sometimes crazy, sometimes artsy, sometimes beautiful, but often just different from things we’re used to. Thus designers explore new horizons and we explore new viewing perspectives which is what inspiration is all about.

Not only do we have browsers that support images (gasp!), but we have the opportunity to make our web pages come to life through great typography.”
A must read.
