Certainly a useful and inspiring article. As most commenters above have said – forgetting CSS galleries is a good idea.
I think they’re great to gather general inspiration and to bookmark interesting sites, but I’ve found from experience that by grabbing ‘this little box graphic here’ and ‘that header style there’ and ‘this tidy menu bg’ and composing them alltogether; nothing works and you’ve created a mish-mash design with other people’s elements. Serious no-no.
