    I am responsible for our company e-commerce site.
    We have been around for many years. And our entire site is build using CSS.
    But it still has this table-look formatting (a 2 column div layout).

    This is fine, and it works. But I would like to make the site more expressive.
    Does anyone know where I can find examples of e-shops styled with CSS?
    And I mean really unique designs not just the basic 2 or 3 column layout with a header and a
    footer. There are plenty of amazon look a like sites out there, we want to be different.
    Some examples wouldn't hurt...

    I was also thinking to submit the site to a CSS enthousiasts community , so they can have their go on it.
    I know several sites like ZenGarden invite Illustrators to shape the same page many times over
    using a different style sheet. Imagine having several designs of our e-shop available for our users...
    ... It would be a gimmick but like so many things web2.0 it is about giving the power to the end-user.

    I to work for a ecommerce company that is done totally in CSS. I have looked for other large internet retailers that might have some good inspiration but there seems to be none. If there are, they are usually small shops nothing like a large multi million company.

    Take a look at what i tried to achieve, and it is a complete nightmare. Really think there needs to be a great desktop application that you can maintain your catalog's on. would make life much easier, and increase functionality to share databases etc
