The website descriptions are the owners words and taken directly from their website. Please help grow this list and share others not mentioned.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.behance.net" target="_blank">Behance Network</a><br />
The Behance Network is the world&#8217;s leading platform for creative professionals across all industries. Members build multi-media portfolios that display their work. Millions of visitors &#8211; including recruiters, top creative companies, editors, and more &#8211; come to Behance to see the incredible content and find talent to hire.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.creativehotlist.com" target="_blank">Creative Hotlist</a><br />
Creative Hotlist is a customizable online application for connecting talent, companies and services. Much more than a job site for the creative community, Creative Hotlist has a sophisticated search engine and enables users to find individuals, companies and resources for any aspect of the creative marketplace including job openings, creative services, artists, designers, programmers, printers, service bureaus, schools and clubs.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.thefwa.com" target="_blank">The FWA</a><br />

<p><a href="http://www.designflavr.com" target="_blank">Designflavr</a><br />

Bringing you design and art goodness from Sydney, Australia since 1998!</p>
<p><a href="http://muse.drewwilson.com" target="_blank">Muse</a><br />
Muse is a project designed and developed by Drew Wilson. My reason for developing Muse was to create a gallery where the focus is on the Artist, rather than simply the Art. I have often wondered what inspires great artisits/creators, and that is where Muse came from. Muse will not only showcase great art, but it will also attempt to showcase the inspiration behind the art. And ultimaely the inspiration of great artists/creators.</p>
<p><a href="http://thedesigninspiration.com" target="_blank">The Design Inspiration</a><br />
The Design Inspiration is created by a group of designers who are seeking various design inspiration every day. To make every designer&#8217;s life easier, we decided to feature the best logos, illustrations, websites, photos and patterns from the most talented designers from all around the world. And we would like to make sure that you are getting the freshest and best quality design inspirations daily.</p>
<p><a href="http://logooftheday.com" target="_blank">Logo of the Day</a><br />
Logo Of The Day is a high-profile logo design award scheme that rewards the best professional logos and trademarks designed throughout the world. All suggested logos are screened by our two judges Jacob Cass &amp; Jeff Fisher to ensure this. Logo Of The Day is also a place to come for logo design inspiration… daily! It is also a place to discuss, share &amp; rate logo design!</p>
<p><a href="http://www.creativetempest.com" target="_blank">Creative Tempest</a><br />
Every weekday Creative Tempest delivers a high-flying dragon kick to your imagination. On snowy mountaintops we trained for years in some of the world’s most deadly arts like design, illustration, and photography, just to name a few, and now with our powers harnessed we have descended back to the world in order to arouse your minds. Check us out Monday through Friday when we will bring to your computer screen the web’s most inspiring artists.</p>
