MIGHTY DEALS (email newsletter)
I’m a big fan of this system. Mostly for WEB DESIGN, they offer discounts on products that I use often (GUI kits, discounted ebooks from Smashing magazine, WordPress templates, fonts, icon packs, graphics, etc). Emails get sent out once or twice a week.
Tip: They usually have some sort of discount code that you can search for before you complete your purchase.

NOTE: these are not my projects.

Still recommend placing dark body text on a light background—because it’s easier on the viewer’s eyes. However, these dark landing pages set a nice tone.
NOTE: these are not my projects.
Retromatic App - great UI!
