Site Launch: Beautiful 2.0

Beautiful 2.0

I am pleased to anounce that a project I've been working on for nearly six months (off and on) is finally complete. The name of the site is Beautiful 2.0 - it is a web design and CSS gallery that is dedicated to beautiful web 2.0 websites. It is much more "pure gallery" than many other CSS gallery websites out there. It is much more geared towards artistic sites that are extremely well designed. Most websites that are considered and placed within the gallery could be works of art you might (might) hang up on your wall.
The site features 10 website submissions per page, with access to an archive that opens up on a per-month basis. One of the things I am most proud of (sadly, nothing to be proud of for you uber developers out there) is the fact that you can search for website submissions according to color preference. So, not only do you see the latest submissions, but you can also search by date and color.
There is no rating system, as I did not want to have to explain myself or those I trust to submit websites to me. The goal of "pure gallery" was something very important to keep in mind whilst building this website. I did concede, however, to allowing comments on each submission. This should allow people to compliment, rip apart, or otherwise start a dialogue based on each submission.
Please take a look at the site - add it to your favorites, follow it on twitter (you'll see the twitter link in several places) or tell someone about it that you think might be interested or might even wish to submit a website of their own.
