I just got in a shipment of books and they are great, I was wondering if you could help me out. I am looking for design books, well they don't need to be books, but something visual, websites, magazines, flyers even a cereal box(if it looks cool). I want to expand my knowledge and see what other people do for design work. If you have some drawings that look cool I would love to see those too. I am not trying to style ideas, just trying to get a feel for the field.
Thanks,

I highly recommend the Communication Arts magazines. They typically feature issues with naught but illustrations and paintings, issues with graphic design bits such as mailers, posters, etc. . . and feature websites. It's a great source for inspiration.
Likewise, go to any bookstore and you should be able to find a nice series of art books for purchase.
