    Great collection Noura. Thanks for mentioning my post on grid-based design.

  • Noupe, 06 April 2008

    Thanks Steven, your post had useful information that i wanted to share

  • Vincent, 06 April 2008

    Thanks for the link! I’m working on a redesign right now; I’ll try to let you know when it launches.

  • Michael Martin, 06 April 2008

    Incredible collection (And you were too modest to put your own design in there!). Bookmarked as a great source of inspiration for more unique styles. :)

  • Vinh Le, 06 April 2008

    I’m always looking for great blog designs and you got a great collection here. Thanks for the list.

  • Badang, 06 April 2008

    Wow, truly inspirational.

    There’s a never ending of creativity and it is amazing to see that coming from people everywhere.

  • Tom Ross, 06 April 2008

    Thanks for the link, a great list you have there :)

  • Luc, 06 April 2008

    Thanks for the list! Very sleek! :)

  • Dom, 06 April 2008

    Very nice list. Thanks!

  • Myo Kyaw Htun, 07 April 2008

  • Polo, 07 April 2008

    Nice listn thanks !

  • mk, 07 April 2008

    great list. there is another one: http://lichtbringer.biz/

  • JamieO, 07 April 2008

    Ha. At first glance I thought the title of this article was 60+ unusable, not unusual. A list of horrible designs would be amusing.

    Although, most people who recognize the value of a CMS and chose WordPress as a platform probably aren’t going to make a site that is ugly as sin and non-functional.

  • princess, 07 April 2008

    Wow,Very nice list. Thanks!

  • Internet Business Blogger, 07 April 2008

    Great list, trouble is I sent it to my wife which will lead me to much work rebuilding her blog design.

    Thanks anyway

  • Radu, 07 April 2008

    Thanks for the feature mate, glad you liked my playground.

    Cheers!

  • IDX, 07 April 2008

    This is the best web design inspiration list I’ve seen in a while. Many Thanks.

  • Jonesie, 07 April 2008

    Thanks for the great information–very helpful.

  • Liz, 07 April 2008

    Thanks for the nod to Pop Culture Tees! It was a lot of fun creating the design for the site, which had ample inspiration from the 80s.

    It’s really amazing to see ALL the ways you can take wordpress and really push it beyond the world of plain jane layouts.

    Great article – looking through all these sites will keep me busy for at least a few hours!

  • Siam, 07 April 2008

    Great list, I especially love the “markup” design! You should also have a look at the openbook theme.

  • James Abney-Hastings, 07 April 2008

    Thank you so much for featuring my web site, especially amongst such fine company! Great post, it’s great to see such a variety here.

  • Dan Nanasi, 07 April 2008

    You put Daninko on there? That one sucks bad dude.
    :P

  • Noupe, 08 April 2008

    @Vincent, You are welcome. Let me know when you launch the new design.
    @Michael Martin, @Tom Ross, @Luc, @Myo Kyaw Htun, @Radu, James Abney-Hastings, @Liz, @Dan Nanasi:
    We put in a lot of time getting this amazing designs listed here, it was really a great pleasure working on a post full of such inspiration.
    Thanks to you awesome designers :)

    hey, thanks for the post. It was really useful for me.

  • Sketchee, 05 May 2008

    It seems like the sites I tend to come back to have very minimalist and well organized designs. I love that these guys push the limits of WordPress design. Design always has that fringe that makes us all push ourselves just a little further

  • Owen, 15 May 2008

    I like it!they are very beautiful!

  • Alex, 27 May 2008
