4 Apr 2010For a long time Purple has been the least used colour in web design. In recent months I noticed the number of websites crafted using purple is increased. Try to browse some showcases across the web and you’ll notice more sites with various shades of purple in the recent entries.

Now let’s see in what clever ways and shades web designers are using purple in their own websites.
Below a showcase of web designs with a subtle use of the color purple, they might be a good source of inspiration for your next works. Enjoy it!

The guns do look just alike, except for the barrel lengths. The pictures are a little decieveing because the pictures are a little different size. The guns will perform and look the same though, the one just has a 2 inch longer barrel.
