Nice collection! Momentum, Theory and Mosaic are my absolute favorites in this list.
My favs are Telly (what a great domain too!) and Mosaic. Not sure about the font used on Paper though…
Agreed Telly is my favorite! Very smooth and clean
What a great collection, Chris, this was the year 2012 where he began a new internet, with discoveries of new technologies and more people interacting, I hope that this also happens in 2013 and more. Hug and a happy new year to you and your entire family.
Oh yeah, and my favorite was the Paper.
I challenge WordPress designers to design templates and sites that do not look like WordPress.
I don't understand how "Momentum" is on the list…I mean it does not have a great design, no great colors, no great images, its just some normal website which can be found on themeforest!!
By website I mean the website design..
The theme on theme forest is a copy of our site ;)
NICE COLLECTION!
Everlovin' Press; it's the only one which is actually designed rather than relying entirely on a nice splash image with some minimal text, it's all a bit WordPress.
Great collection and thanks for including the grooveshark.com/new page to the list!
These designs are absolutely incredible. I have two of them my favorite, those are Mosaic and Telly.
Think Quazar is defiantly my favourite out of this list, great choices though!
lovin' the collection!…Each one has something different about it.. cant seem to pick a favourite!
Hey Thanks for including my site in this list of amazing designs.
Some really slick sites right there, so very honoured to be in the list. Nice one Chris!
My favorite was Matthew Carleton's.
Great list! This ought to keep me busy for awhile.
Nice collection! Momentum, Theory and Mosaic square measure my absolute favorites during this list.<a href="http://www.superwebdesigner.com/" rel="nofollow"> web page development </a> professional web designers
So you're telling me I just need to add a full-page background image to my site to get on to this list?
I think two of them don't need to be in the list.
Creo que estos son sitios atractivos, para clientes especificos, sin pensar mucho en el posicionamiento web u otras cuestiones SEO.
THanks for the collection of Nice Dzines!
Very impressive
