Whether you hit a design block, encounter technical difficulties in terms of HTML / CSS / Javascripts, in the search for open source scripts or simply just seeking for design feedbacks; you probably should be looking for a site where people of the same interest gathers – forum.

As a designer-cum-developer I find myself visiting forums quite frequent, not to chat but rather to check out what’s new, what’s in trend or the hottest topics discussed. Participating in forums discussion not only allows you to share your interest and techniques with fellow peers, but as well as mutually gaining in terms of skills and knowledge. Here’s a list of forums I’ve come across or been really active in. Full list after jump.
