This is another useful resource, probably more photography oriented than the more graphic design of Behance. Like Behance you have to register before you can enjoy what is on offer.

Fonts
Choosing the best font for a project (if one is needed at all) can be vital. Typing a query containing your required theme will often bring up suitable fonts but the process is more hit and miss than seeking inspiration from images and graphics.
Books
There is a whole sector of the book industry devoted to showcasing various genres of work. While these make for pleasant reading, it takes quite a few books to assemble a body of work from which to pluck ideas. It is a category that is probably under pressure from the electronic assistants that are around today, especially as they have historically been very expensive books (over £100 in some cases).
