First off...
i want to start this thread as sort of a polling response to a question i find nesseccary.
where do you find your design inspiration??
be it, your webpages, graphics.. what ever !
I often find myself sitting for hours on end, with pencil and paper, sketching out / writing down all sorts of information for my own designs... How about you?
Show us your creative sides !

Re: Design Inspiration - polling response
I don't really do design...I focus mostly on development...I do occassionally like to let my creative juices flow...and when I do I look at the many sites I bookmark and borrow/steal ideas and blend it into my own design.

Re: Design Inspiration - polling response
I actually borrow the idea of borrowing ideas and inspiration from a designer I once knew...he told me his methods and figured I would try the same. 
Re: Design Inspiration - polling response
I worked at a place where the head designer just stole stuff outright without even changing colors or anything, he'd even use the stolen stuff for multiple clients and then tell each client it was custom. the guy got fired after he ticked enough people off lol
