How delighted I was to launch Ego app and find that Beautiful Pixels has crossed 2000 feed readers. We know it’s not the ultimate way to gauge readership, but we’re thrilled anyway. Thanks a bunch for subscribing to our feed; we’ve got some great stuff planned. Don’t forget to follow @beautifulpixels on twitter as well, we post a lot of links there that don’t make it to the blog.
But a small contest in celebration. A $20 iTunes gift code. Leave a comment recommending something beautiful you’ve seen recently. Could be an iPhone app, or a website, or even a wallpaper. Preferably something we haven’t covered yet. Winner will be chosen randomly, so even a ‘congrats’ will get you into the game. Standard giveaway rules apply. Update: Giveaway ends, we have a winner—Andres.

Btw, congrats. I write in my blog looking up to Beautiful Pixels
I well deserved congrats! My fav beautiful thing (okay, 8 of them): 8″ Sans Serifs you must have in your Font Collection” – specifically Museo. That is one dead sexy font!
congratulations!
I’m really digging this wall called “orgasmic”. Check it out: http://nardoxic.deviantart.com/art/Orgasmic-156728387
I’ve really been digging the interface for an upcoming Twitter app called Humming Bird. Here’s the Twitter channel, in case anyone’s interested. http://twitter.com/humbirdapp

Congrats. MacPadd for the iMac is a beautiful accessory to be had. Just don’t buy it from their site though.
Woohoo! Congrats on your 2,000 subscribers. Thanks for doing what you’re doing on this website, I come to it everyday!

Congrats. Today I got out and started using my Bluetooth Aluminum Apple Keyboard again, which is oh so elegant and beautiful.
Have you guys seen Gravity Hook? From the makers of Canabalt. It’s addictive!

Congrats! I might have been one of those final 2,000 since I subscribed yesterday to your beautiful website. What wonderful material you have! Here’s my beautiful thing, a video around downtown Phoenix, Arizona. This doesn’t seem like something you would feature, but it’s just something I love.

Also, this image from Wikipedia is my desktop background, and I love it, I get a lot of compliments. Again, not beautiful or smooth in the typical sense, but I love it. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Crops_Kansas_AST_20010624.jpg
Congrats! I’m glad my lust for great UI design can be kept under control with this website. :)
Something beautiful? Pretty cool iPad app website for my brother’s company: http://tapstats.com/
Congrats!
This is really nice: http://riddle.pl/
http://bookcoverarchive.com/ I like this book cover archive site with nice design and beautiful typography. Congratulations on getting two thousand subscriber!
The iPad :)
Congrats :)
I think there’s still room for improvement for functionality, but I’m quite a fan of the UI design of TripDeck (http://www.mobiata.com/iphone-apps/tripdeck-live-itinerary-tracker). Trip Journal (http://www.trip-journal.com/) is also worth a look.
Love the blog. Thanks to you, my iPhone home screen includes Momento, Outside, and Reeder. I already had Convert, Twitterrific (although I use Tweetie 2), and all the TapBots apps…
I *just* saw this beautiful infographic: http://bit.ly/9twfGQ

Congrats! Also, I love the design of this app! http://edovia.com/touchpad/
Thanks, guys.
I’ve always really loved the “presenter view” in Keynote. Check it out sometime, there are definitely some beautiful pixels there. http://flic.kr/p/6Y43Pr (Best photo I could find of that view…)
woot :D
Gonna throw in my fun website: http://fellatioelephantus.com
I like the design of NoteDetector. Its an iPhone app. Cool site too.
Its a really neat app for finding musical notes and showing them to you on the fretboard or keyboard.
sorry, here the link

Congrats! I think the Outside weather app is very pretty.
Congrats on the milestone! I’ve been enjoying your posts, and you have got me spending on a few apps just because of how pretty they look.
Congratulations and keep up the wonderful work! :)
I don’t know if you’ve seen Logo of the Day, but there are some really pretty and clever things that pop up there on occasion: http://logooftheday.com/
A friend just showed me this, looks pretty great to me:
http://www.octigraphica.jp/softwares/TimeFlow.html
(you have to click on the icons at the bottom to see the full app, the initial page isn’t as exciting).
Congrats on the milestone, I love this site!
Nice scaleable portfolio I did:

Something beautiful? My little girl. :-)

I think this wallpaper is beautiful. Thanks for the effort you’ve put into this site.
Hey BP, I love this site and everyday there’s something wonderfully designed for me to check out to brighten my day. Recently, my friend got me into Grooveshark (http://listen.grooveshark.com/), and despite its Flash based website, it’s a very beautifully designed site. I hope you’ll cover them one day :)
Congratulations on your 2000+ subscribers, and here’s to another few thousand!
http://www.iconpaper.org/
I am very happy to see that you nw have (at least) 2000 readers! This is a wonderful site that I simply love!
Eliss: a simple, but very beautiful and addicting iPhone game! http://www.toucheliss.com/

I found it after being linked to this artist on DA from iconpaper.org.
Congrats for your great achievement!!
One suggestion? Check out this site, is the best webdesign of the month (IMHO)
http://www.luclatulippe.com/
Congrats !!
I’m so loving your blog !
Hey there :) http://Shemkiel.deviantart.com/art/mini-Cayzie-for-Coversutra-156128782
Has anyone ever looked at the ui for the Zune desktop client? Its actually surprisingly nice looking. You’d never think it was a Microsoft product :P
Though if you’re using a mac… you can’t use it :/
Congratulations!
My suggestion: http://minimalissimo.com/
I’m sorry, I didn’t really read the whole thing. Since Zune is software, it doesn’t really qualify. Powerset is a nice website for searching places such as wikipedia, Factz, and other resources, though! http://powerset.com
I just found this site and I love the topics.
Something beautiful I’ve seen? I love reading HOW magazine and the fun covers they’ve featured lately!
Seeing the 15 revisions of an icon by sebastiaan for Here file file : http://blog.cocoia.com/2010/here-file-file/
Just revising the details of reflections in the little pearls on the necklace… sweating amazing detail!
Oh, I’m one of the 2000 =) yay!
Congratulations! I personally like the look of my personal blog about astronomy: http://astronomyandspace.blogspot.com/
Congrats! This is a wonderful wallpaper! http://mgilchuk.deviantart.com/art/DarkSide-Wallpaper-Pack-150701966
congratulations.
A real bad example of UI I saw recently was my reflection. What’s up with that? No only is it quite ugly, but it is also back to front, everything is on the wrong side.
I really like http://keyboardr.com/
great, fast multi site search that has a very simple UI
Congratulations guys – you deserve it. So far Reeder has one of the most well designed UIs of the apps I use daily.
Hey congrats on the popularity! This is one blog that I stay subscribed too, for it is not as clustered as the other blogs. Also, there are good articles on here, not trash like what the others have.
Anyways, I think you guys should interview this guy: http://kamikaze00x.deviantart.com/gallery/ He is amazing! Of course you can check me out too: http://www.jathu.me a little shameless self promotion ;)
Reeder is pretty.
Been around for awhile, but I just stumbled on http://simpledesktops.com/ the other day and am loving the clean and beautiful wallpapers.
I’m loving beautiful pixels so far btw.
Congrats!
I’m currently really liking what the Alfred App team have done with their website: http://www.alfredapp.com/

Thanks so much for the comments!
Winner of the iTunes code is Andrés Feliciano. The code is ER2X… [You think I’m that stupid?].
Thanks again.
Congratulations! To enter the contest: I think this is beautiful http://cespur.posterous.com/best-holiday-ever-0
Nice, I love this site, I never really knew why I turn some apps down that function properly, its because they are ugly to look at.
Heres an example of a beautiful app you haven’t covered.

Articles is a great looking app: http://sophiestication.com/articles/
This is one of the loveliest sites I’ve ever come across !
