My name is Dan Denney and amongst other things, I am a web design fanboy. I could easily spend my entire day browsing css galleries and checking out code, ui elements, etc. No one has offered to pay me to do that yet, so I sneak it in on breaks from the things that people do pay me to do. This Tumblr is dedicated to the awesome things that I find across the internetz. Per wikipedia.org - “Fanboy (sometimes spelled fanboi) is a term used to describe an individual who is devoted to a single subject in an emotional or fanatical manner, or to a single point of view within that subject, often to the point where it is considered an obsession.”Tumblr (3.0; @webdesignfanboy)http://webdesignfanboy.com/<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_ks6t3qu9Ac1qa9gxmo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>I was browsing through this awesome post on sites with hand-drawn styles and this site really stood out.</p> <p>The whole site corresponds with the work that he does very well. It’s gorgeous and fitting.

Of course, I thought it looked really cool, but today I found some <b>major</b> awesome!</p> <p>He did a <a href="http://chriscoyier.net/2009/10/26/grooveshark-on-the-iphone/">review</a> of the new, and unapproved (boo Apple), Grooveshark iPhone app.  Before reading the review, I couldn’t help but notice the huge iPhone pic, color scheme and the “Groovy” O in Coyier.</p> <p>Awesome work from an awesome guy!</p> <p><a href="http://chriscoyier.net/">Check out the real thing.</a></p>http://webdesignfanboy.com/post/224437703http://webdesignfanboy.com/post/224437703Mon, 26 Oct 2009 22:21:56 -0400<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_ks0u5s2UIG1qa9gxmo1_500.png"/><br/><br/><p>You really should see this one <a title="Organic Supermarket" href="http://www.organicsupermarket.ie/">live</a> to check out the animation. I really like the mix of grass and dirt and recycled paper images. They provide great contrast and are all within the realm of what the company does.</p> <p><a href="http://www.organicsupermarket.ie">Check out the real thing.</a></p>http://webdesignfanboy.com/post/221807848http://webdesignfanboy.com/post/221807848Sat, 24 Oct 2009 09:44:00 -0400<img src="http://30.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_krz3p8uTSl1qa9gxmo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>I really enjoy how this entire site comes off as being  a printed page. I’m a big fan of the hand-drawn look, but most sites combine standard elements with hand-drawn touches. This site feels like paper, which rocks!</p>http://webdesignfanboy.com/post/220982971http://webdesignfanboy.com/post/220982971Fri, 23 Oct 2009 11:15:08 -0400<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_krwfbgTl101qa9gxmo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>You have to see this one <a title="Christian Sparrow" href="http://www.christiansparrow.com/">live</a> to really appreciate it. My jaw hit my keyboard as I clicked through. The floating, hand-drawn elements are amazing…</p>http://webdesignfanboy.com/post/219697219http://webdesignfanboy.com/post/219697219Thu, 22 Oct 2009 00:33:15 -0400<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_krwejeSUoa1qa9gxmo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>Love the minimal look of this site, with the splash of orange.

The level of detail in this site is insane! It features an absolutely gorgeous interface with a lot to find and interact with. I really like the tagline and, of course, the footer.</p> <p>Maybe the best part of all is that a site this amazing is also powered by Expression Engine!</p>http://webdesignfanboy.com/post/219677498http://webdesignfanboy.com/post/219677498Thu, 22 Oct 2009 00:05:51 -0400<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_krwd8i5xXW1qa9gxmo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>Found this on <a title="The Design Inspiration - dance academy logo" href="http://thedesigninspiration.com/logos/dance-academy/">The Design Inspiration</a>.
