thanks for such useful list :)

where is the list of web developers ;)

railing said...

Well I'm still new so this one is a big help.

Gillico said...

There are some great people on this list, but I am curious as to why Walter Apai is included? He has no credited web designs (or any other form of design, for that matter) to be found anywhere on the web, no matter how hard I have looked.

He credits both of his sites, webdesignerdepot.com and techi.com, to other designers: http://www.webdesignerdepot.com/2010/05/its-here-say-hello-to-techi-com/ and http://www.webdesignerdepot.com/2009/02/meet-radim-malinic-the-graphic-artist-behind-webdesigner-depot/

He also doesn’t write any content of his own, he just hires other people to write content for him, unlike everyone else you have included on your list.
