Sorta in the same vein as Stocky's how do you get motivated thread, I'm interested to see if anyone has any artists/writes/stuff that inspires them.

Mine;

I like to keep up to date with new features in Adobe software, so I browse PSDTUTS.com (www.psdtuts.com) which is a very good resource for graphic designers/artists

There are some inspiring blogs, like You the Designer (www.youthedesigner.com) which is the one I check almost everyday. There's also NDesign Studio (http://www.ndesign-studio.com/) which has some pretty cool Illustrator work.

Veer.com (www.veer.com) is a sweet Canadian site that has a lot of great stock photography and illustrations to draw inspiration from. The Face Maker (http://ideas.veer.com/features/faces) is particularly fun.
I've got a Member Page (http://ideas.veer.com/members/500660) but it's pretty empty right now. They also send me free swag occasionally, which is more than o.k. by me.

And the usual suspect, DeviantArt (www.deviantart.com) but I'm not very active on that site.

What do you guys look to for inspiration?
