alang - That would be great if I could source a few sites from your list. I was aware of dirten and intentionally avoided it while compiling the list in hopes of finding new and different sites. I also avoided Aviva's strongest list. Funny thing is that after looking through both...most sites on my list are also on your's and Jeff's. Could there be a connection between original design and good directories? That said, nice list and I will have a look. Thanks! EDIT: I'm adding sites now and will be doing so for a while...
Thanks for including Lively Directory,it would great if you can add Alike Directory to the list as well.
When you said sexy, I assumed you meant adult as well. That's a nice list of custom-designed directories. One of the problems I find is that since there are so many different themes available for the most popular scripts, it's getting harder to identify those directories which have gone to the extra effort of creating a custom design.
Here are a few. AeroSpect Web Directory Directory Surfer Directory Profile SquareSeek Web Directory Optimum Directory Gentle Presence Directory Worm

Ok...I've added about 13. Thanks to all that have suggested their own sites and others. More will be added when I have more time...like I said...I want a "cool" 100. Great sites EVERYONE!!!
Quick note to all: I'm going to make my best effort to get all of the sites listed that I feel are original and unique. Very original and unique...and based only on my opinion...which is worth not much...as most opinions are. If you're dir is not listed, please, please do not take offense. I just started a blog at Cyberbilt and wanted to open it up with a decent post. Nothing more nothing less Best to all, Tim @Cheap SEO Services - You should see your site there sometime tomorrow nite
I pretty like what my designers did on my directories : www.gamingtype.com www.trywebmaster.com www.hostinglinks.eu www.myspacepresto.com (hot!)
Maybe you want to consider adding www.kwikgoblin.com to your list. Thanks for your time to compile this list-I enjoyed it.
wow! i was just going to suggest zorg links, but you already have it! thanks! how about www.blazemp.com/dir/ i like that
