sometimes the dawn never comes. comments from a "print designer" so consider the source... being a 'lazy' print designer, i resent having to move my mouse and scroll to flip through the pages. to add further insult, i actually have to scroll down and move, as the page reverts to top on page refresh. and being rather simple myself, the template has a little too much style for me and seems more like a distraction.. i mean yellow? what happend to fuscia? it took me going through a number of pages before realizing the the little thumbnail indicated the next slide in the show, and even then didn't really add to the experience. and since i'm being so negative, the drop shadow helps the right and bottom edge of the sample, but on many the right edge is disconcerting--maybe a light gray rule could define the page? then your numbered boxes... i like squares.. they're so consistent... but #10 looks like an elephant stood on it and squashed it. the 'i' in portfolio is cute and artsy... us print designers love that shit... it's so personal and i wonder if the presentation would be stronger showing the entire page rather than clipping to fit an arbitrary shape or depth. in some ways, you're trying too hard to design a web page and overpowering the design of the work that you're showing. yar's site was exquisitely clean and powerful as was ingo's... why not let us see the whole page and keep the focus on what you're presenting and do you really have to tell me you've got style? i mean i know i'm a print designer... even i recognize style when i see it. print designer's no nothing about code and are terrified to even look at that gobbly gook. we prefer the square brackets to those curly thingies... but hey, design is subjective, right? and all that type is soo big, you must be one of those oldsters, eh? we like mouse type speced in pixels so nobody can mess with it. --the toad in ny > > > Best, > Westmoreland > <http://chelseacreekstudio.com/dl/index.php> > ______________________________________________________________________ > css-discuss [cs...@lists.css-discuss.org] > http://www.css-discuss.org/mailman/listinfo/css-d > List wiki/FAQ -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/ > List policies -- http://css-discuss.org/policies.html > Supported by evolt.org -- http://www.evolt.org/help_support_evolt/ ______________________________________________________________________ css-discuss [cs...@lists.css-discuss.org] http://www.css-discuss.org/mailman/listinfo/css-d List wiki/FAQ -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/ List policies -- http://css-discuss.org/policies.html Supported by evolt.org -- http://www.evolt.org/help_support_evolt/
