Black Sites

one of my favourite websites that impressed me the most is designed in black.

http://www.northkingdom.com/

enter the broadband version.

the flash effects are amazing on this site.

Good find Sara it has some impressive anim, but it comes back to my point about people either associating black sites with Flash, or Flash with black sites. I was stunned by the anim of the flags falling down but there was a lot of pauses before you saw work.

[sara-tyler-reese]

yeh. i guess. but the work on there is really nice.

this is also a good black website:

http://www.cyberdog.net/

plus you can guarantee that any angry goth website will of course be in black.

I personally love this one:

http://www.livingdeaddolls.com/

The livingdeaddolls site works perfectly for the content matter, the other.....the matrix text put me off straight away, then it turned it to star wars...wasn't keen.

[sara-tyler-reese]

yeh i guess the matrix thing is overdone. I just really love that shop. they got one in camden, london and you get robotic dancers with computer parts stuck on themselves dancing as your'e shopping! weird store - but very entertaining.

I understand what evrybody is saying. But, I like black, grey, dark coloured websites...

Black works depending on what the content is. Hard to have a site selling flowers using the colour black.

Do what Flashwiz has done with his wildlife site and use dark greys instead of black.
