Showcase: Space Scenes in Web Design + Tutorials & Resources

Since I was a little boy I have been fascinated with everything out of this world. This fascination continues and I am happy to bring you this showcase of space scenes in Web design.

There are basically two types, the more realistic looking designs that completely depend on a space scene as a background image and those that incorporate comic-like illustrations.

Check out the sites below and get inspired. Realizing spacey Web designs with the design options of the RichWP WordPress Themes is no big deal. Have a good look at how background images and color schemes have been used.

At the end of this post you will find a link to resources like PhotoShop tutorials, graphics and illustrations that are available for free to get you started creating your own space scenes and designs.

Jack of All Trades, Master of All (In Web Design)

Designing websites is a complex field. Having an eye for design, being able to choose the right colors and aligning the pieces with one another for the strongest visual impact is as necessary as knowing your way around HTML, PHP, CSS, Javascript or whatever technology you use.

But it doesn’t stop here. Technology is evolving as fast as design trends change. I am a firm believer that we should specialize as late as possible, if at all. Even if at certain times it seems that we are not able to keep up with all new developments, we should always give our best.
