I keep saying a lot of these places are self loving glamour projects that turn into a giant male ego stroking circle jerk. Nobody believes me.
Some sites can get pretty disgusting, perpetuating some sorry borrowed style that's now over saturated in cyber space. These sites are a good place to start, but not an end all resource for what is good design.
I wish people would stop trying to be so cool all the time and think up something new or at least their own, especially if they're going to parade around screaming "I'm so awesome."
I tried bringing this topic up in another forum recently, and all of the sudden everyone got very defensive. I think they took it upon themselves to fill in the blanks and thought it was a personal attack. Maybe it was, maybe it wasn't... but it's a fair observation.
