- I love Dribbble, its real fun and the graphics are amazing and great to discover talent. However, Dribbble isn't really about real design, but more so about graphic arts. The issue these days is that people confuse the pretty visual layer part with what design actually is as a whole. Design is most importantly about designing systems, structures, processes, etc. You won't find that on Dribbble. Once again, design is much more than picture perfect motion graphics, logos, etc or how things look...design is most importantly about how things work. :)Dribbble is THE place for design inspiration. Warning, it's easy to become addicted.Kesava MandigaWriter. Learner. Marketer. · WrittenDribble is amazing but I like the curated selection from Muzli better. :)

- Viktoria PerminovaUX, Product Designer at botmakers.net · WrittenGreate place to find inspiration and explore talent portfoliosNicolas Le RouxGrowth Marketer · WrittenI also really like Behance as you can explore different processes of creation.
- Justin McKissickProduct Designer @Facebook · WrittenA ton of case studies are cross-posted from Behance, Dribbble, and other sites. Pinterest has superior search to these sites, so while if you know what inspiration you are looking for (branding, UI, etc.) It's great. Not so great on giving original credit to the designers though.
- Marlon WayneFounder @ Impulse · WrittenI'm surprised no one has mentioned pttrns, yet. This website is incredible for mobile design as it can be sorted by OS, page type (e.g. onboarding, messaging), and even by device type (e.g. watch, tablet). The name pttrns is entirely appropriate, as you'll start to identify certain similarities across different camera designs, for instance, and have a better understanding for why certain elements are placed where they are. I use this a lot and it's worth subscribing for access to unlimited and the secret Slack.

- Sven van der ZeeCo-founder Orderli · WrittenI'm a user for while right now and I love the website. They also have a slack chat if you want feedback from other designers and developers.
- Shantanu RaghavProduct Guy @Mobiefit · WrittenIt has some best curated UI kits, wireframes & icon sets. Although its mostly paid, but is a great source of inspirations.
- If the quality of a design is measured in its ability (or not) to reduce the friction required to achieve a desired result, then user onboarding experiences are a great place to find both positive and negative examples. While it's possible that many people who design for a living will reject this, I believe how well and simply the designed thing helps people achieve their desired ends is far more important than how good it looks. And Sam Hulick's User Onboarding has done a better job than I ever could making that concept concrete.
