Is it ok to try to copy someone else's website and post it to codepen or dribble to get feedback?

I am trying to get better at my css and I find it helpful to copy other websites without looking at the code as much as I can. Eventually I will make my own website with my own ideas, but for now it is fun practice.

That is a good way to practice if you are truly not looking at the code. As for posting it to those Websites for feedback, I think it would be best to hold off on that and only submit your own work.
