Useful Compilation
This book is a really useful addition to the web designers arsenal - it's sort of a mix between Designmeltdown.com (created by the author) and www.cssimpress.com - with the best bits saved for this book. If you are lacking the inspiration which you usually have, or if you can't go through the whole of DesignMeltdown's archives - this is for you.

Good for Inspiration
Not a bad little book, not wonderful but not bad. As previously mentioned by others, it's a collection of websites that reflect the authors ideas of 'good design'.
Not much text, lots of pretty pictures so it will suit some people more than others.

Great Book for Beginners to Experts, 23 Nov 2008
I found this book an enjoyable and insightful read. The structure allows you to go back to the book for reference and as the title states gives the reader loads of ideas. I am a creative professional and I am finding this book a good starting point in discussion around issues such as style and how to use colour. Defiantly something I would recommend to fellow professionals.

Web Designers Idea Book Short Review, 12 May 2009
I must recommend this book to anyone that has an interest in making websites. Each chapter is brought down in to sub sections based on colour, type, style etc. which helps differentiate between the somewhat limitless types of websites there are on the web.
HTML colour codes taken from the featured websites are also also included in each section - these have proved very helpful to me.

Fabulous companion when you're lacking inspiration!, 7 May 2009
I read the previous reviews on this book and I must say, they're bang on! I then bought this book as I was heading a bit flat with my site designs and voila.. what a great source of both inspiration AND information.
Commendations to the author on not just providing a good selection of sites but also breaking them down and explaining concepts.. The other guys are always asking to borrow this book from my desk!! LoL..

Nice book for ideas and inspiration, 29 April 2009
This is a book to inspire and show how different trends are used in web design. Nicely presented and sections are seperated by colour, trends, textures used etc.
Not for those who are after tutorials, but very good for design ideas.
not a bad price too.
I'd recommend subscribing to their RSS feed to view the latest design web trends too.

Good Inspiration!, 10 Mar 2009
The book contains some pretty good inspiring site examples, especially regarding the use of colour combinations giving you a good relation between design, client and feeling (so to say).

Great ideas, 22 Nov 2009
The book has a huge collection of screen shots from good looking websites with different colour schemes and layouts.
This is an ideal book for a designer like me who needs a little inspiration once in a while. It can save you time trying ideas that might not work.
The only downside to this book are the pages with text on. The text is completely useless and seems to be there just for the sake of it.
Overall I'm glad i bought this book for the thousands of ideas but i wont be reading any of the text.

Great for inspiration, 28 Oct 2009
I am setting up my own website and have no experience in this before. This is a great book for giving you ideas regarding layout, design and content for a range of websites. Filled with lovely glossy pages and in full colour, I think this is well worth the price. Each image is accompanied with a URL to explore the design further.

Nice book but not for my purpose, 15 Oct 2009
The book is good, really, but I thought there would be more technical hints for how to create a certain site. The book is definitely inspiring, but I should have read better what the purpose of the book was.
Thanks.
