They fit together perfectly... hopefully the start of a long series!The Web Designers Idea Book: The Ultimate Guide To Themes; Trends Styles In Website DesignLike the first volume; this is full of carefully picked examples of the best in modern web design. Its organized into very clever topics making it the perfect reference book. Its loaded with screenshots; screenshots; and more screenshots... just as before; but all new; and more recent.In this version; the screenshots are even larger and easier to pick up on detail and text. Theyve also included "Developer Notes" which I think are pretty insightful and in context.If you are involved in web design in any way (even if youre hiring other people to do it); this book will be super handy. The two editions are the same size and style... theyre intended to be on the bookshelf together. With the two combined; there must be a thousand organized designs to look through. The amount of work that went into collecting such quality work without "filler" junk is astounding.Im really impressed... if you cant tell!On the negative side: Id personally prefer these came in large hardback coffee-table books. While maybe not as handy; it certainly would be great to have around the agency. Maybe after the 3rd edition; they should release a combined volume!1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. Not too BadBy JayBird23So far its ok. Its not your average textbook in that there are hardly any "professional" terms mentioned. Its more like people in the business opinion on what they think certain aspects of web design are. Its really not helping me much at all for my Mobile and Web Design class. I rented the Vol. 1 book a few quarters back and pretty much the same story there. Not very helpful; although this one is better as far as element descriptions goes. They could do better in my opinion.2 of 2 people found the following review helpful. The cure to designers block!By LisaI bought both volumes of this book and Im impressed. They are both full of unique and beautiful websites. I feel as though the author was reading my mind; picking only the best websites that truly are like interactive works of art. It is the cure to my designers block!These books are made to work together and combine into a huge collection of some of the worlds most truly awesome-looking websites. One isnt complete without the other; so if you buy it; be sure to buy volume 1!
