[Colin Campbell]

I'm really surprised, you get mad props for that, I love that site! Only suggestion would be to add a volume fade when you switch the songs, but otherwise, I don't see any problems. I love it, way above the average portfolio posted here anyway. A few dead links BTW.

Keep up the work, Colin

EDIT: nvm that dead links thing ;)

[decode5238]

by the way, there are few dead links :

Otherworks/music,
Otherworks/web design/4. TDS

besides these two, others should all work!!



regards

Well, this is my very first post, and I didn't really want to start with being a wisea$$ or something, but since you asked... I'd make the text a little smaller... I mean the content text. Otherwise it's a pretty cool site.

hi, thefunnyone

thanks for your opinion !! I appreciate it a lot !

but that's my intent to do that font thing since a lot of websites are using so small font and making it a not so friendly environment for me. Or maybe because I am not English speaker so that I need bigger font to read ??!!

tell me what you think ??

thanks again !!

I think the font size is fine, but some of the text will appear before the containing box appears to be ready for it. Check it out below, this screenshot was caught mid update, but you should get the idea. The box is smaller than the information. Perhaps just a easeoutcubic will do fine. Assuming you are using zeh's tween prototype, like it appears.

I guess it depends on the designer's (and more important, the customer's) taste. If you believe that the visitors of your site will appriciate bigger fonts, then it's definitely the right choice. I hate to read small text too, but I think a size 11px is fine (for sans type fonts anyway) even on a bigger screen resolution.

And of course it also depends on the information you try to present. If you need to show more important info without the customer having to scroll to read the rest, then smaller font is the right choice. But you know, it doesn't really matter as long as the customer's happy. :)

I totally agree with you in the perspective of a competitive market
,and I have a question :D : in the real market (I never work for any customers), do customers always care about the end-users ?? just out of curious.

hey man, try this 99.9% of the viewers have this font and the 0.01% still using win95 i guess LOL.

Verdana, sz 9, set to device font...it is damn freaking nice, need, sharp font...if he/she cant read it well i really got nuthin to say.

In an ideal world, yup, they do. In the real world, they don't, but that doesn't mean they shouldn't. There are still companies out there who look at their websites as pain in the a$$ projects that they have to do because it's "trendy", and they couldn't care less about the "end-users". Of course they can't see the potential clients they lose because of their poor website. And more often than not they rather go with the shiny, artistic website without any user-friendly content than a clean, easy-to-use, corporate, but still eye-catching design. I'm talking about corporate customers of course. :)
