    Pixelmag seems so simple yet elegant. I’d prefer it to others as I prefer to focus on usability and speed.

  2. Wow, this is an absolutely stunning idea. Expand your horizons, learn new things, get to know different perspectives. While learning something useful :) I truly believe any art major that’s planning to use a computer as a part of his creation process should go through these tutorials.

  3. wow…amazing designs! Really good tutorials!!

    Wow, very well put together. I’m sure this took you a ton of time to put this all together. Thanks for sharing, this is useful for anyone that’s into design.

    All the Best,

  9. Hardy (1 comments)8 April 09

    There’s some really cool stuff in there which I wouldn’t have found without this list. Thank you for this nice collection of great tuts!

  10. Great design ideas. I needed this. I love the Old Paper design. Very unique.

    This a very clear example of what is wrong with our industry. Be fucking original. Stop this “theme” look bullshit.

    • Billy (1 comments)9 April 09

      Seriously, jesus, and “User Interface Design”? They’re fucking blog themes for crying out loud.

  12. I’m sorry but I don’t like the designs. Okay some of them are pretty nice but most of all they’re 13 in a dozen ‘template’ designs. The typical $150 bucks all inclusive stuff….

  13. Arjen (13 comments)11 April 09

    I do like the designs.. well, most of them. I really like the scrap of notebook paper.

    Thanks for sharing!

  14. Great share. I am sure everyone could learn something new from these tutorials.

  15. Great collection of interfaces. Great work.

  16. Robert (10 comments)14 April 09

    i serious had some flashbacks to the late 90’s when i saw these tuts! The old bevel-look menu buttons are back and trendy again…. what a crap collection.

    This is a great resource especially if you are just trying to get to grips with different design styles in Photoshop. However I would just use these techniques to gain an understanding and try and build on them with your own creativity and intuition. Its important for designers to continue to push the boundaries, with designers continuing to use the same techniques again and again we risk creating designs that will become dull and boring.

  18. I like the billing application ICON. It’s like they start with a simple shape, and before it’s done it’s an elaborate illustration.
