"Everybody knows that getting free pictures into your blog posts is complicated. Searching, resizing and then making sure you correctly follow the image license conditions is a real headache." - Fulaan from Bookmarklet

looks pretty good. A little sluggish at times, but really good UI. - Chieze Okoye

It's basically a StackOverflow clone, except for UX/UI. Kinda neat. - Fulaan from Bookmarklet

@See-ming: Have you ever heard of StackOverFlow, SuperUsr, Doctype, ServerFault, OnStartups, and a ton more clones of the original awesome Q&A site; Stackoverflow? Yeah, that's it. - Fulaan

"Expression Web SuperPreview is a visual application for debugging a website in multiple IE versions easily. It can display a website in IE6, IE7 or IE8 side by side or as an onion-skin overlay and use rulers, guides and zoom/pan tools to precisely identify differences in layout." - AJ Batac from Bookmarklet

I have no words to describe the perfect minimalism and innovation in this website design - Aaman (Clone of FF) from Bookmarklet

"Every user have the right to see information feedbacks, notices, messages and errors clearly, visible and useful. Or else, your visitors will get easily frustrated and go away. Worst, go to your competitor who offers better visuals. You may have the best looking site with the best functionality out there but if you ignore this simple web interaction rule, you will certainly have some support issues. Your visitors shouldn’t be a Ph.D. in order to know what is going on. Let’s take a look at some popular sites on how they handle user messages, how they show users when something goes wrong." - AJ Batac from Bookmarklet

"CheckMyColours.com by Giovanni Scala is a tool for checking foreground and background color combinations of all DOM elements and determining if they provide sufficient contrast when viewed by someone having color deficits. All the tests are based on the algorithms suggested by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C)." - AJ Batac from Bookmarklet

"ColoRotate is an interesting new site that picks a novel approach to the traditional color picker design. Instead of 2D circles or sliders, ColoRotate features a 3D cone. At the core of the cone is the spectrum of colors. Intersecting that is the tint which lies on the z-axis. You can manipulate each one separately to help you arrive at your color. You can also blend two colors together." - AJ Batac from Bookmarklet

I came across this a while ago... It looks really awesome but it confused the heck out of me!! - Lindsay

I calm myself by going back to 'yellow and blue make green. yellow and blue make green' *Ziiiiiip* =) - Micah Wittman

"The two giants pride themselves for producing cutting edge consumer and business products, and are leading the developments in software and hardware. But what about their websites? How do they both compare, and more important, which one is better and more usable? Well, in this article we’ll take a look at both websites for closer examination from a usability point of view." - AJ Batac from Bookmarklet

Excellent place to find UI/Design inspiration. - Leon Ho from Bookmarklet

"If you want to maximize the revenue of your service you need to maximize completion rates of your web forms. Unless you have some revolutionary ideas to impress your visitors at first glance, it is not enough to simply enable users to sign up on your site. To make it possible for the service to reach a maximal exposure we, designers, need to provide users with a good user experience. We need to invite them, describe them how the service works, explain them why they should fill in the form and suggests the benefits they’ll get in return. And, of course, we should also make it extremely easy for them to participate." - Leon Ho from Bookmarklet

"This graph paper is made for visual designers, interaction designers, and information architects. You'll find styles for wireframing user interfaces, story boarding interaction, and plotting values on a two by two grid. Plus you'll get a basic grid for drafting sitemaps or anything else that might come up." - Leon Ho from Bookmarklet
