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.
