What Are They Running?

[Sir nick]

Hello,

I've noticed latley lots of invite sites have been popping up. Examples http://lovedsgn.com/ | http://dribbble.com/

What I'm wondering is there any starter software to get on the road to site's like those.

So what I'm asking is what are they using basically; Example wordpress

Both of those sites looks like someone bought or designed a template, threw up a webpage, and added affiliate links.
They might be WP or some other blog, but they look like webpage templates to me.

Nice lookin websites, but it doesn't look all that complicated, IMHO.

Glad we saw the same thing; I was thinking they were WP but they just don't seem to be.

I mean they have no wp- in the file names nor directories.

..or they could have coded it themselves.

It's completely possible...it is not a lost art yet.

Dribble i believe is but love looks a bit like wordpress with the layout in a way.

Gotta to say the first one looks like a faceborg page, ergo I hated it immediatly and blamed the current Korean crisis on it.

Dribble is created by two famous designers/developers, and is completely custom.

LoveDsgn I'm not sure, but it seems like it.

no completely custom stuff. It would be a nightmare to do on WordPress I think

Definitely custom. Great websites, great ideas. The whole web should have designers like the ones featured on these websites.
