Do you get new impressions or hints for your work by visiting other sites? The thing I learn most, from other websites, while browsing, is usually "what I don't like!" I most often see, that which I have learned to stay away from. Pages that lead you to endless clicks to even more clicks, ..that take you into oblivion. That's what led me to do my own webpage work. Most pages out there are also ... "graphic-design-nightmares". It reminds me of when Desk-top publishing systems first came to the fore in the mid eighties. Everyone tried to design magazine or newspaper and ad pages without any thought for graphic design principles. Every page seemed to use fourteen different typefaces and nothing related to style etc. These things do tend to slowly level out after the newness wears off, but in the mean time it's utter, .."yuk" to the eye! So when I do surf into a page of clean design, ...it is like an oasis in a desert of cyber-sand.
