There's some very cool, cutting edge design to be seen on some of those sites. However, it should be noted that since graphics are copywrite-protected materials, unless a site is explicitely offering up its graphics for free public use, you should also be getting permission before using the "borrowed" graphics within your own works. (OTOH, downloading others' graphics in order to study them, master the techniques used to create them, etc. is a common and very helpful practice that AFAIK does not require permission. So take advantage!) -- CC
