This is sort of an off topic post, but seeing as how this part of the forum is about design I was wondering if anyone would be interested in taking a moment to post some links to some of the sites they've visited lately that are deserving of the title "best design".

If they include forums, all the better, btw. In terms of "best design", I'm thinking something that looks great but remains simple and gets the job done. Something that doesn't have complex or cryptic navigation (although extra points go for creative looking/functioning navigation).

I'll nominate UBBDev as one of the sites, but what would you consider the best design in sites you've seen as of late? This could be interesting :-)

www.netwerkin.com always has a nice look

www.threadsdev.com is hoping to help push threads owners into more stylish designs

*lots* of others out there

I agree with Allen on Netwerkin.com. Glassrattler\'s forum is also very nice.

Although it's in German, joking-down\'s site seems nice, clean and easy to navigate.

The Pittsburgh Penguins site is really cool IMHO but it has a lot of bells and whistles. (BTW, they're using UBB.threads™)
