    Didn't know how else to word the thread (sorry).

    Basically, just wondering is there a particular type of software etc thats used to create websites that (well to me anyway) have a very Mac look to them?

    Examples:
    http://www.metalabdesign.com/
    http://culinaryculture.com/
    http://www.stickybits.com/

    They scream Macs at me for some reason - anyone know what software etc is used to create them?

    It's not software, it's very talented designers. Some of the best in the industry have worked on those sites.

    There is no such thing. Someone wrote the code for those sites, they had the exact same limitations as anyone else they just happen to be very very good at their jobs.

    I'd say it's only the first one that screams mac.

    These would be the web 2.0 look. Photoshop is good at this sort of stuff. But then obviously you need talent to use it and produce quality work.

    Photoshop
    Notepad
