Gentlemen:

     As counsel for Houston InterWeb Design, Inc., a Texas corporation 
("Company"), you have requested our firm to render this opinion in connection 
with the Registration Statement of the Company on Form SB-2 filed under the 
Securities Act of 1933, as amended ("Act"), with the Securities and Exchange 
Commission relating to the registration of the distribution of 750,000 shares 
of Company common stock to the stockholders of PinkMonkey.com, Inc. and the 
registration of the resale of 419,300 shares of Company common stock.

     We are familiar with the registration statement and the registration 
contemplated thereby.  In giving this opinion, we have reviewed the 
registration statement and such other documents and certificates of public 
officials and of officers of the Company with respect to the accuracy of the 
factual matters contained therein as we have felt necessary or appropriate in 
order to render the opinions expressed herein.  In making our examination, we 
have assumed the genuineness of all signatures, the authenticity of all 
documents presented to us as originals, the conformity to original documents 
of all documents presented to us as copies thereof, and the authenticity of 
the original documents from which any such copies were made, which 
assumptions we have not independently verified.

     Based upon all the foregoing, we are of the opinion that:

     1.   The Company is a corporation duly organized, validly existing and in
          good standing under the laws of the State of Texas.

     2.   The shares to be issued upon the distribution and resale are validly
          authorized and will be validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable.
