50 Showcase of Beautiful and Trendy Contact Forms

Contact forms have evolved a lot since the days of simple bland html forms. This holds especially true for portfolio websites and design agencies. Every now and then, you use a contact form.

Two months ago, we announced the second 10K Apart contest — The Responsive Edition — in partnership with our friends at An Event Apart.

In a nutshell, the JavaScript looks for every form element with class="styled" on it; hides the real form element; sticks a span tag with a CSS class on it next to the element; and, finally, mouse events are added to the span that handles the visual stages form inputs go through when they are clicked. To get the checkboxes, radio buttons and select boxes to work properly, you'll need to change three variables in the script: checkboxHeight, radioHeight and selectWidth on lines 21-23. If you use the images I created, you won't have to change the variables, but if you make your own, chances are you'll have to. The checkboxes and radio buttons to the right are linked to transparent PNG images for you to use freely if you'd like. The first two variables are the height of a single stage of the checkbox and radio button, and the third is the width of the select box. http://ryanfait.com/resources/custom-checkboxes-and-radio-buttons/

It’s good to have an insight into others work, to see if I can learn anything from their process but also for curiosity. So I’ve put together a break down of my design process, using a recent project as a real life example, Newsgroup Direct . Overview I was recently hired by Newsgroup Direct (NGD), a leading Usenet newsgroup service provider , to revamp their website, make it more modern and improve signups. The first thing that happens when I get an enquiry is I send the potential client a website planner .
