I’m a big cat lover but starting thinking about cats I wonder: do I actually know my cat? Do I know what it does when I’m not at home, when I sleep or even when I work at my computer and it’s not sitting next to me. You can’t even imagine what cats can do when we don’t see them and the authors of the artwork from our Cats post today were lucky enough to see the other life these amazing little creatures! Enjoy and have a good time!

Fish And Cat at Granny’s House

Looks like the cat of the future but personally I prefer real cats to their mechanical brothers.

It’s beautiful when you can dance beautifully 
Dancing is a complicated body science that requires lots of your time, efforts, patience and passion. It’s a real science to move in a dance and that’s a real art to create the dancers in 3D. Today we are glad to present you a showcase of some amazing 3D works featuring the dance. Girls look so real that I couldn’t first believe that’s not a photo or photo manipulation effects. Dance and enjoy with us!

Web Hosting,
Website Design
We are all used to the look and feel of the hosting websites that seem to have been designed in this same style for ages now. Since there’s lots of important info that needs to be placed on the home page, the home pages of the hosting websites usually look crowded and sometimes even like a mess and all this info gives a feeling that hosting is something very complicated. Most of us are familiar with the GoDaddy hosting company and the first glance at their website makes me think that I will never make it.
After the web 2.0 stream and during the last year some of developers started rethinking the usual approach to design of the hosting website. The clean CSS style with the 2.0 accent was obviously their aim. Nowadays CSS and web 2.0 approach to hosting website design is the new tendency that is getting stronger and stronger. Just think about it, if we find the website with the large fonts, lots of white space, clear icons and big buttons convenient, pleasant to the eye and easy to understand, why don’t we apply same concept to hosting website design.
I’ve prepared some CSS hosting designs that I personally like. Each one has it’s own unique style and stands out from the crowd. Follow the stream and be one of the first to join, as this is the key for success.

There’s a so called Gold list of the best hotels in the world that COnde Nast Traveller makes every other year and here’s what they recommend for 2009: http://www.cntraveller.com/GoldList/2009/ .This is the selection of hotels all around the world that have the best rooms, service, food, location, ambience and design, and leisure facilities.
They have winners in several categories: best for ambience/design, best for facilities, best for food, best for location, best for rooms and best for service.
Since we’re mostly interested in design aspect, first we decided to pay our attention to the hotels chosen best for their design, but nor the hotel interior/exterior but the website design. Having reviewed several websites we thought it would be nice to make some kind of a contest not just for design and look, but for the website usability as well. IMHO, the most luxurious hotels should pay more attention to their online presence. Read the rest of this entry »
