    I’ve always liked the blending of the physical/paper world with the online world. Somehow so comforting!

    I though I saw double entries. But then again, it wasn’t. Vincent Mazza and Logo Cranium are using the same design. I’m sure they’re using the same theme and having both inside this list is a bit questionable. No creativity at all, compared to other websites which are really creative and unique. You should credit the one who created the theme.

    For some bizarre reason only the middle of your post is being displayed, is it my PC or something different ?

    Very nice collection. They are all great but I think http://www.5pts-interactive.com/ is using the “paper” effect very nicely with soft touch.

    Thanks for the inspiration :)

    What a writeup!! Very informative also easy to understand. Looking for more such posts!! Do you have a twitter?
    I recommended it on digg. The only thing that it’s missing is a bit of speed, the pictures are appearing slowly. However thank you for this blog.

    I don’t consider anything with this posting, but you do make some ideal details. Im very interested within this matter and I personally do alot of investigation while doing so. Either way it was a properly thoughtout and nice study so that i figured I would leave which you comment. Really feel no cost to verify out my web page sometime and let me realize you think.
