I love grey Websites, they are my favorites! My portfolio tommywebdesigner.com and the most of my websites are built with Grey…they are unbeatables! ;)
A new big image would really go a long way with this themes. Could really use some attention to detail on the gradients, but overall a nice job. I need to find a reason to use these themes for my new blog.
I personally don’t want gray website design, it’s because it looks like dull and don’t have life for me. However, if you will integrate a little bit of texture or white gradient somewhere in the area; it will give life to your design. That’s what I noticed in this collection.
I appreciate the “Fifty Three” website template.. its so awesome..
Wow, many thanks for featuring my web, and in such fantastic company too!
Good luck
Nathan

This grey thing seems to be getting so well with me since you posted this article here. I have also checked the experts at Team Tree House are also quiet well with grey…. check out http://teamtreehouse.com/
Am always very thankful to Slodive for the stuff they continue to share. They are always filled of inspiration with no boundaries, for instance, I recently built a Twitter Bootstrap template from an inspiration from these grey websites listed above. The template can be found here… http://wrapbootstrap.com/theme/acacia-WB001U10E Thanks.
Wish Nathan from a few comments ago had said which website is his. It’s always nice when people stop by and say a thank you for having their work featured. I did visit Friendly Gents website – definitely worth the ‘click over’ to view their work. Excellent presentation btw.
