Sometimes when I need inspiration I look at images of city skylines. Architecture has always intrigued me and what better building blocks to look towards then city-scapes when planning a web project.

So of all the beautiful city skylines which one(s) do you like best.

My top 5 would have to be:
(1) - New York
(2) - Chicago
(3) - Hong Kong
(4) - Seattle
(5) - Atlanta

Seattle is incredible when it comes to skylines, especially with the sunset behind the Space Needle

[capty99]

the dallas one is real old

[Martyr2]

My top two choices are Seattle and of course my new home here in Vancouver (after all the construction finishes). Psycho is right though, Seattle does have a wicked skyline and being that it a relatively newer city than perhaps some back east, it has some great new and innovative buildings.

Seattle and Chicago, I went to seattle few years ago pretty interesting skylines there.

Yeah Dallas has a nice skyline also. I never seen Seattle with the sunset behind it.

& real gay.

NYC has the best by far. In Cleveland there is a factory with fire shooting out of a chimney like structure. The city isn't all that great. Akron is (in my opinion) a nice site driving home in the morning, when it's still dark enough to be all lit up.

I like the bottom one PsychoCoder.

Cleveland looks good at night if you have the right angle same goes with Columbus.

I'm biassed cuz I live here, but Melbourne, Australia. Here's some.

Sorry, this one is rather large.



And this one, on the Eureka Tower. Seriously, that building was designed to kill Vertiphobes. Read up about it.


EDIT: Remember to close tags. Stupid.
