well to add to this thread briefly... I would say it's all fine and dandy to use whatever you find on a Flash tutorial website but if you're just going to take your concepts and replicate them in different ways several times - does that make you a good designer? http://www.schematic.com looks strikingly similar to http://www.betabodega.de/ which looks a lot like http://www.funkstorung.com I dunno, I think what seperates a good designer from a *great* designer is the ability to evolve and constantly produce NEW ideas. Which isn't to say those sites aren't nice just that they are a bit formulaic. Then of course there is the Designers Republic who somehow manage to replicate *and* innovate. Everything they make has that distinct DR feel to it and yet stays original, fresh and new. anyhow, just my 2 cents.

All those little tricks on Funkstrong.com were taken from Josh
