50 Beautiful CSS-Based Web-Designs in 2006
December 19th, 2006
2006 was rich on creative, beautiful and unusual design concepts. We’ve seen a lot of whitespace, many examples of readable and usable text-design, badges, stars, rounded corners, shapes, gradients, mirror and 3D-effects - just name it. Let’s take a close look at some of the most beautiful designs we’ve seen in 2006.
Some gorgeous designs are missing? Let us know - comment on this article!

December 19th, 2006 at 10:54 pmSome fine looking websites here, but also a nice illustration that “CSS-based” means nothing when applied to semantically incorrect markup. Some of these sites are even plain inaccessible.

primate|blog » Blog Archive » Las 50 webs más bonitas del 2006 Says:
December 20th, 2006 at 12:22 am[…] Smashing Magazine elaboró un listado: las 50 webs basadas en CSS más bonitas del 2006. La verdad es que hay algunas muy logradas y creo que esta vuelta a los estilos y los estandares, al final, logra que la web y los diseñadores hagan las paces. Después de muchas peleas por las tablas, los spacer gifs, la relación diseño/peso, está claro que utilizar estilos deja mucho más margen para la creación. Suena a contradicción, pero maquetar en CSS sigue muchos de los conceptos que los diseñadores ya tenían incorporados desde hace tiempo, sin ir más lejos con herramientas como el Quark. […]

December 20th, 2006 at 2:07 amImpressive!
It’s nice to see what we can do with CSS + XHTML but, surely, we need to have in mind that a semantic markup is VERY important to a successful site.

Eric Says:
December 20th, 2006 at 10:05 amJust thought you should know that you’re violating Google’s TOS for placing images next to your AdSense ads. I figured you’d like to know that they’ve recently clarified that topic and changed a few of their positions on it, including the “line” between images and ads being “ok” - it isn’t OK anymore.
Here’s an article you might take interest in:
http://www.problogger.net/archives/2006/12/19/adsensead-clarify-policy-on-images-near-ads/
Just a heads up! Getting Google AdSense wacked is a real downer, it’s happened to me and I don’t want it to happen to you!

Russell Says:
December 20th, 2006 at 3:59 pmAll these sites look eerily the same. I like clean gradients and tabs as much as the next guy, but the shit has to stop. It’s like the 45 degree angle thing during late 1999-2000. (Damn you 2Advanced!) There is nothing impressive about rehashing the same crap over and over. CSS+XHTML does not mean you site needs to look like a trendy web 2.0 logo.
I’m not saying these are not good sites, because most of them are, but good design should look good 10 years later, and these will not. They are part of trend, like low-rise pants and bug-eye glasses. So take off you Von Dutch hat and think up some new ideas.

Jakob Says:
December 20th, 2006 at 5:34 pmBullshit. Why is it always LOOKS over USABILITY?
I mean there are hundreds of sites that “look nice” but are extremely difficult and tedious to use. Small text, radical colors and contrast, usage of Flash, required scrolling, useless images, too limited effective area without scaling support, non-standard solutions (= difficult to interpret what is a link/button) etc.
The list goes on and on but yet many people deem such sites as incredible.

And if I see one more page centered css site with a graphic popped on top of the page I am going to SCREAM.

Brad Dickason Says:
December 20th, 2006 at 8:56 pmDavid,
I believe that ‘CSS-based’ merely differentiates between the CSS and Flash wars that went down a few years back. For example, the gorgeous http://www.ampedesports.com/ uses CSS for 99% of layouts but still includes a bit of flash and html (tables) here and there, so I’m not sure… should it be allowed?

If there is one non CSS based website in your list doesn’t that shake the validity of your ability to choose actual CSS based sites?

December 21st, 2006 at 8:26 am[…] Nun hat Vitaly seine 50 Beautiful CSS-Based Web-Designs in 2006 herausgebracht, aber meinen Favoriten nicht berücksichtigt. Weshalb ich ihm einen eigenen Beitrag widme. Dieser Vorschlag ist nicht zwingend wunderschön aber vorbildlich. Er gehört dem englischen Webdesign Unternehmen Clearleft. Was daran so toll sein soll? Nun, dieser Seiten demonstrieren handwerkliches Geschick durch sauberen Quellcode und Standards. Das Layout ist ausbalanciert, trotzdem ist es liquide und fügt sich der vom Surfer gewählten Browsergröße. Man macht Gebrauch vom Weißraum, verwendet ausreichend große und gut lesbare Schrift und ein schickes Menü, selbst dem Favicon wurde Aufmerksamkeit geschenkt. Nicht zuletzt wirkt das Ganze modern, Anklänge an das typische Web 2.0 Design nicht nicht zu übersehen. Man kann es anders machen, aber nicht unbedingt besser. Klar ist, dass solche Business-Seiten nicht mit optisch opulenten Werken mithalten können. Sie müssen ihre Botschaft transportieren. […]

December 21st, 2006 at 8:36 amI’ll throw out our company’s website as well: http://www.Lifetime.com
We went from a table-heavy, low CSS, not structurally laid-out, very utilitarian site to a site that’s all CSS, very pretty, and very quick to load.
Take a gander.

wawawa » Archivo del Blog » La expresión del buen gusto Says:
December 22nd, 2006 at 2:45 am[…] Con eso de la “Web2.0″ y, sobre todo, el blogging, los diseños empiezan a modernizarse. No había muchos “tocados” hace varios años atrás que fueran lo suficiente manitas para saber hacer un uso correcto de los div en vez de los table. Ya he leído varias veces a gente pedir ayuda para saber usar el div, y la gente contestando que en vez de eso que use las tablas, que también permiten ajustar imágenes y contenido al gusto del diseñador. El caso es que las tablas están para tabular, y no para maquetar. Además con las hojas de estilo y el, ya mencionado, div, todo queda mucho más limpio y sencillo, magnífico a fin de cuentas para luego hacer cambios/revisiones. Yo, por ejemplo, era un usuario del table, aunque ahora ya he renovado el diseño de Vida Friki hará cosa de un par de meses para usar la etiqueta adecuada, y me ha costado lo suyo. Lo peor de todo ha sido que quedará medianamente bien en cualquier explorador, aunque la visualización con Internet Explorer no hay por donde cogerla y hace unos destrozos que echan para atrás. A fin de cuentas, todo este rollo es una introducción para un enlace que acabo de hallar de 50 diseños que se han hecho de páginas web y blogs usando las hojas de estilo de forma preciosa y que para los que estamos habituados a hacer diseños y ajustarlos para que se vean bien en una web, aprendamos como hacerlo correctamente: 50 Beautiful CSS-based designs in 2006 […]
