Paul Bennett keeps it simple with some bookmarks, textured background, sunburst and a Get in Touch.  All in a nice Retro set-up.

The classy retro look that is pretty much ‘in’ these days! Right here..from the 1800′s!

What makes this footer interesting is the use of the eponymous artist’s painting and an overused cardboard as a background and navigation bar – respectively.  Simple design, yet it carries the meaning well.

Designer’s note:

"We're passionate about carnivorous plants."

Noe Ruiz

This simple looking footer packs a surprise for you.  Loved the way the content area folds and unfolds, while keeping this tab ticking.

Another example where the footer is sort of sober as compared to the psychedelia on rest of the page area, but a cool footer nevertheless.  HTML5 and CSS3 website so old-browser-users – consider yourself warned!

Small, simple and beautiful.  That area with RSS-feed and mouse icon is actually extended sidebar.

Developer’s Note:

"A chunky footer which gives the user access to all the different areas of this API section of the site."

Phil Thompson, Developer, MediaBurst.co.uk

This footer extends the gray tones of the site design to a darker one with a complimentary red borrowed from the overall color scheme.

EnergyCell keeps it simple, yet much functional.

Whose coffee is that?
