The footer of your website no longer has to be a line with copyright information underneath it. It can be a source of further reading for blogs – List your favorite posts or latest posts there. Companies can include mission statements, contact details and other relevant info. Today more and more designers are carrying on the design into footers and here we present you with tutorials and examples of good footer designs…
Exploring Footers – This article explores the ways you can position footers using web standards, although the same techniques may be used to vertically position other elements
Bye Bye to Boring Page Footers – Simon Collison shows you how to sign off with style by adding a quirky footer to your site, using some nifty CSS and a background image
footerStickAlt: A more robust method of positioning a footer – Recently I’ve been asked to code up a few sites that require the Web page footer to be positioned either at the bottom of the browser window or at the bottom of the Web page whichever is visually lowest.
Embrace your bottom! - I mentioned this idea briefly when I posted about the recent redesign, but I wanted to expand it further. Web designers of the world, let’s talk about your bottoms.
Practical Footers – The bottom of the page is a decision point for visitors to your site. They will either decide to continue browsing your site, or leave.
WEB 2.0 Footers – How to keep people’s flow - One thing I’ve noticed recently is how some websites have decided to use footers as a way to keep people browsing their website.
Footers are the new sidebars? - It’s dangerous to expect scrolling so placing important links exclusively at the bottom of the screen seems a bit dicey.
Putting CSS Footers in Their Place – One of the most difficult things I’ve encountered in CSS layouts is footers. They’re hard to understand, and even when you do figure them out, that doesn’t guarantee you’re always going to know how to get them to behave.
Now we have seen some techniques and looked at the theory behind footers, lets have some eye candy! Here I have dugg out some nice examples of footers….

It was strange, when I first saw a footer with all the Flickr photos, Last.fm tracks and plenty of information. But it was sort of nice.
Now, with rising of web 2.0, you see exactly the same footers on all websites. It becomes more and more boring.
yes, boring … all over the web a lists of footers, headers, wordpress designs, ….
Zachary: A few first “Web 2.0″ footers were interesting, innovative, but when you saw tons of identical footers… you know, internet is about uniqueness. They wanted to be unique and different, but now they are all the same.
And wordpress… I am sick of the default template which is used on every second blog.
Thanks for featuring my footer here.
