Where Do You Get Your Inspiration From

Greetings fellow designers, coders etc.,

I am about to start a graphic project and I would like to hear where you guys get your inspiration from. Everything from background and header to typography and icons. Please share websites etc.

Also, what is important and a good to keep in mind when creating a new design?

I am fairly green to designing web designs from the ground up so any input will be apprecitated. Thanks

Checking a css awards websites as well as ‘sites of the week’(from blogs like line25, instantshift..) is generally a good idea.

Checking a lot of sites that has different types of designs. That actually does it most of the time.

I get my inspiration from websites, magazines, and just my surroundings in general. No need to always be stuck at the computer. Design inspiration can come virtually from anywhere if you just look with openness
