hi Jeffery, nice domain name ;?>
here's feedback from a sometime web developer:
i looked with an iPad 2 and it is well laid out, and easy to figure out; strong
gallery too; i appreciate the minimal approach; i looked before the changes you
mentioned this morning
i noticed a few design issues — not biggies, and some possibly intentional:
- i would find it more comfortable if the photos in the gallery had a little
more breathing room from top of page; for iPad consider centering it on the screen
- the text on the front page (very little, i know) feels uncomfortable because
the style is not as minimal as the rest, it feels more decorative
- spacing of the navigation arrows is a little uneven; it is also hard to hit
such small arrows; i would suggest making each gallery photo itself a link to
the next in the gallery to make an easier target (this is common paradigm)
- i looked at all the images; very strong, but there are some dupes
- there is no home link from the gallery pages; and with such a large gallery
an index or a running row of sequence thumbnails would probably help (though it
would be less minimal, and may be hard to do without a more sophisticated
production tool
and a couple of glitches:
if i view it in portrait on iPad, it fits well, then i rotate to landscape it
enlarges well — good responsive design — however when i then rotate back to
portrait it gets stuck in "too big" mode, and back to landscape it is even more
"too big"; a double-tap and it resizes as needed; i'm not that experienced in
the mechanics of this so i'm not sure if this is as simple as some CSS or if it
would require Javascript to respond to these changes consistently
also the link from copyright notice is mangled — a couple of spaces got glommed
onto the end as entities (kudos for choosing a creative commons license)
