Project 1-FINAL

So there it is. This isn't the completed one. In fact, it's only the first revision that i uploaded. For some reason, it won't update. I even pulled everything off and re-uploaded my newer site, but it still comes up as the one i first uploaded. ...Stupid pain in the butt... butt, it will have to do. ....sooo, tadah!!!
A vote for DAVID BJERRE is a vote for ANARCHY ... so please, vote for anarchy. The zombies will thank you...

Super creative. Not sure what the final one had changed but its pretty cool. Seems like everything is a but bunched up at the top though. Would be fully awesome if it was more of a full page experience.

As far as the site not changing when you upload files... servers like to cache stuff so depending on how long his TTL time is for cache on the server it could take up to a few hours to actually change. This is especially true when you replace stuff with the same name. Also you can try to clean your browsers cache to force it to re-download everything.

Great concept. I agree with kyle, I would like to see a full page experience. larger typography perhaps, different backgrounds for separate sections. textures.

David, that is bad ass. I love what you did there. Alghouh, I tried to click on the arrow for falling down the rabbit hole. Maybe say scroll the rabbit hole haha I agree about the type too. Its a bit small. I dont like it sitting on the red on the left.

Nicely executed, I like the flow of the one page site, and I also like the navigation on top.

Nice website. It's very creative. It took me a while to notice your image slider, which is also really nice. Nice work!

Great job on the site. It looks very good. I see that the skull still scrolls over your navigation. I also think some of the type is hard to read because of the font and also because some of the type is very small. I might make it a bit bigger. Good job.

See now it's whackadoo concepts like this design that keep me teaching this class.

Great use of masking to create imagery and design as well as evoke different emotions on a page by page basis. I'm engaged in it's tragic, gothic feel from the start. The website tells a story from page to page like a storybook It's surprisingly easy to navigate and functions smoothly. Great use of color and design to move the eye down the page. The scrolling navigation works seamlessly and smoothly across all of the browsers I tested it in.

There are some hitches in the layout at times. The most notable are gaps on the "Shop" and "Contact" pages where gaps interrupt the flow of the eye through the site. It would help to tighten those up. Also, I think it left me with an alternate personality ... Image

An awesome concept, well executed. Bravo, sir.

I'm having so much fun scrolling down your website, it's ridiculous.

You totally outdid yourself on this website. So darn creative and I'll probably keep scrolling down the website over and over today LOL

All I have to say is maybe the last bit of type under the blood banner towards the bottom of the page could be better placed but otherwise I can't wait for part two. 8)
