Hi Alex, Glad to see you managed to iron the bugs out.
But as I said before, load time is definitely a huge downside to the website. Are the galleries dynamic? If they are not you could just cache/hardcode the bar sizes and then load on demand, or just make the bar sizes relative to the number of pictures, not their dimension. Took about 30 seconds to load here too (4mbps) but that is way too much waiting to expect from regular users. Some points on the interface: 1. It's not clear at first sight that the bars contain pictures, specially if you hover the ones that display a solid white/grey/black background 2. some bars are just too thin, that makes navigation clumsy 3. hover animations could be more responsive, it takes some time to start fading the image in, and the expanding animation is too slow, gets annoying very soon 4. there is no indication that the bars on the bottom are an alternative set navigation, at first it looks like it's relative only to pictures in that set. some coloring in the main 'barcode' and repeated on this one could help make the connection clearer. 5. the right/left arrows are too discrete and look quirky, a simple styled arrow without the vertical bar would be more beautiful and useful 6. after entering a set, there is no apparent way back to the home page/barcode 7. clicking the category names at the top is a mistery. I guess it adds (underline) or removes (no underline) categories from the barcode, but that is far from intuitive and there is no animation, it just pops a new barcode instantly I know this sounds like 'destroying' the original idea of an innovative interface, but you have to make some concessions, I've been through that too. It's not like a game where people enjoy discovering their way through, in this case it's a stone in their path. Great designs for the web are the ones that innovate but still have a natural feel to it, there is no guessing or confusion for the end- user. I'm sure you can figure it out and get this site closer to perfection :) cheers, - ricardo On Oct 24, 7:05 pm, pixeline <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hi mates, > > May i ask you guys to have a look at my latest project,a bit on the > experimental side in terms of UI : a barcode image gallery for a > spanish photographer: http://www.pixeline.be/test/lisapram/ > > Let me know of any bugs you find? > > AFAIK everything should run smooth (except for the long loading time). > > Please indicate your OS platform, browser and hardware specs. > > The initial load time is quite long so stick around please... > > Looking forward to your feedback! > > Thanks a lot, > > Alexandre
