This is quite bad -- only a small percentage are genuine examples of sloppu UI.

It seems to be put together by one guy (instead of user submissions like similar sites) and not quite design savvy at that.

Case in point:

1) http://sloppyui.tumblr.com/image/61441688489 (this is supposed to show "poor alignment")

2) http://sloppyui.tumblr.com/image/61439801745 (this is supposed to show "stray dropshadows" -- didn't they guy get the memo that the iOS 7 UI uses them to show a 3D layer hierarchy?)

3) http://sloppyui.tumblr.com/image/61439835569 (this is supposed to show "poor contrast". Isn't it obvious that the top bar should not be visually striking and distracting?)

4) http://sloppyui.tumblr.com/image/61440586435 (... this is considered "sloppy").

5) http://sloppyui.tumblr.com/image/61440527405 (flat information hierarchy -- one of the few genuine sloppy UI examples).
