Note: This is part of a series. Here are the ones that exist so far:

The Criteria: I wanted to create a list of what I felt was the 10 best creative websites that didn't cost any money to join. Overall, they should be useful and easy to understand. I cannot guarantee that these websites will remain in the current states that they are in at the time of writing this. They all worked and none of them charged any money to use the site. Of course, both of those situations could change in the future.
Feel free to bookmark this page so that you can refer to it when you need inspiration. I think you'll find these resources fun to use and very useful in whatever kind of creative outlet you participate in.
Enjoy!
