Pros

zimbi’yo’

Right this isn’t a review as such but more of site you should check out if you are a fellow designer or just love images. 

Zimbio is a massive online gossip/celeb magazine that apparently has ’ OVER 20 MILLION READERS A MONTH’  which seems a little optimistic. Aside form the usual gossip mag guff this site has a very useful picture archive that covers entertainment, style, sports & current events. Think google images x10 and all taken by semi-pro/ pro photographers.

Like we mention on episode 16, this a great tool if you want decent stock images, just look how many images there are of ex-premier league glassman Jimmy Bullard of Hull City fame.

So whether you need pictures of Peter Andre’s at his latest fragrance signing or Agyness Deyn in Primerose Hill it’s all here to be found.

Other fun sections worth checking out are LOOKBOOKS which links you to the ‘stylebistro’ which is possibly the silliest name ever, and the GAMES section is a great way to kill time ‘who would win in a celebrity boxing match’ see what we mean…

Cons

zimbi’no’

We could spend forever taking this site apart but we are not going to, it’s obviously not the best looker, or the easiest to navigate, or that interactive, or that inspiring, or original, but it does have nice pictures!
