Nice list! That article about how websites looked 10 years ago is very cool! Great to see how things changed!

I actually don't know why number 13 is on the list... I wasn't very impressed with that one.

Hi Janko,

Thanks for sharing these articles! I've read already most of them, but not all. Too bad I didn't made the list: apparently my articles are not (yet) good enough to be here.

Keep up the great work!

Grant, thank you for beautiful brushes!

Max, I was really amazed with your article and I shared it with my teammates.

@Santhos: I included #13 because I noticed that some of developers I know think that grouping in repeater is something difficult and easily get confused.

Marco, Actually you have a great content! If only you had published "collage artwork" earlier, I was recently doing something with collage. Anyway, I have one article for October roundup

Keep up the great work guys!
