Digital Style

http://digitalstyledesigns.com/banners3/banners.htm here are some nice examples of the Digital style. I also really like this site because it outlined some of the basic concepts of the Digital Style. http://www.zeroonezero.com/magic-layers/graphic-design-trends.html

this article on the encyclopedia is also really good because it has examples of graphic design from the 20th century but you can also see how graphic design has progressed and changed through the years. http://www.britannica.com/EBchecked/topic/1032864/graphic-design/242769/Graphic-design-in-the-20th-century

Victorian style

http://www.attitudedesign.co.uk/time-machine-part-1-victorian-graphic-design/
this is an excellent site that gives lots of examples of Victorian style.

this is also very helpful because it shows what Victorian life is like and explains the design elements that make the style Victorian.
