6 Designers & Developers that have inspired me
I got my “Welcome to Twitter” email on the 13th June this year, and since then i have been following some outstanding and sometimes astonishing designs and developers. And so i thought i would do a quick post to showcase 6 of my favourites over the last 3 months.
NOTE: I have after writing this post realised the position of where the post displays on the page isnt great, so going to change it soon!
And so for the first:
Chris Spooner – www.spoongraphics.co.uk / twitter.com/chrisspooner
Chris Spooner is the owner of Spoon Graphics as well as his blog blog.spoongraphics.co.uk which is home to many a good resource for designers. I am very fond of his website and blog, but the main thing that has struck me about the Line25 writer is his willingness to give back aand help others in the industry.
Elliot Jay Stocks – www.elliotjaystocks.com / twitter.com/elliotjaystocks
Elliot Jay Stocks was one of the first people i came across when looking out for people to follow on twitter and draw some much needed inspiration from. It was his portfolio which impressed me most, but something i found really quite inspiring was how he has had time to be a web designer, illustrator, speaker and author and to a very high standard across the board.
CSS Tricks (Chris Coyier) – www.css-tricks.com / twitter.com/chriscoyier
CSS-Tricks is an online resource covering a vast amount of subjects from “404 best practices” to “using CSS Sprites”. I have really found this website useful and a great resource for both inspiration and tutorials. Chris Coyier is the founder of CSS-Tricks (if my mind serves me correctly) and looking at the site and its vast content has really had a strong influence on my future projects.
Magnus Jepson – www.jepson.no / twitter.com/mjepson
Magnus Jepson is a designer and developer from Norway. What drew me to his website was the great layout, but over the months i have also drawn a great amount of both knowledge and inspiration from his blog posts and his projects.
Carsonified (Ryan Carson) – www.carsonified.com / twitter.com/ryancarson
Ryan Carson is a developer from the USA living in the United Kingdom. He is the founder of the Future Of Web Apps (FOWA), which at time of writing he is hosting. Again someone who gives alot back to the industry in which he works.
Mike Lane – www.mlane.net / twitter.com/mlane
I have only started following Mike Lane recently but already his tweets have given me so much information. Definetely one il be watching for the next few months to come.
