i absolutely hate that design and the whole website...saw it a couple of days ago on the fwa and arghhh it does my head i don't like it at all!!

lol but thats just me other's may like it :)

[johnlouis]

haha. i think it's cool.

grrr... i think it is tooo. PREDICTABLE AND UNORIGINAL.

[pixelSnobbery]

It's not that bad! Got some nifty features, but it's not AMAZING. Maybe The FWA didn't have many submissions that day? ;)

[- |Flash Man| -]

hahaha pixel i reckon thats the reason it made it in to the fwa...it was the only site that's is **** that has been submitted to the fwa and made it in!

[CreationsCentre]

It's ok... it's not a bad site... it's just ok. :)

[Fl4SH'ER]

Nice code, ugly layout and color.

That sounds about right! Maybe I should submit some of my sites to The FWA now... ha!

Visually I think it's not bad, but the nav doesn't really work for me. Too much going on at once.

[vini]

dont know wat to say since you guys have said it all.. just ok..

[hybrid101]

i got confused with the layout. it works really weirdly:|

[Pasquale]

lots of wasted space, and clunky nav

O rly?!? Do tell...

I'm a "web whore" :p: , I look at tons of sites and I'm pretty good at memorizing designs and I've never seen anything like that before. While I don't like it... I wouldn't say
PREDICTABLE AND UNORIGINAL.

I think its a nice enough website but, to get a FWA?, muuu, especially when you look at some of the other sites they award it is a bit under standard. But it is a nice website, and above most peoples abilities (including mine), but saying that it is a nice and simple site and it does do the job well and it has been well thought out, and i suppose on a portfolio site you don't want loads of distractions you just want to look at the work. Its not a 'wow' site but after some mumbling I can see how it got FWA.

You guys serious? The drag zoom thing is way cool. How can that be predictable and unoriginal?

Hey guys, I'm the one that made entrance4. I found this post through google analytics.

Anyhow, I started the site as an experimental nav for dynamically resizing content and turned it into a simple portfolio. Upon encouragement from some classmates and professors I decided to submit, not expecting it to come out on the other side (though I can't say I'm disappointed :) ). I understand that it's not going to be everyone's cup of tea, but I'm pretty proud of it, especially considering I made it as a junior in college.

The main idea was to give the most attention to the work and have the design of the portfolio be secondary. Hence the sparseness. I'm reading each comment too so feel free to critique, doesn't bother me none :) cheers

Thought so, its a very good site and as i've said it is better than I could do, but how ever clever it is it is underwhelming. I'm sure you will be getting plenty of response from the fwa, all I can say is well done for getting S.O.T.D. and if this is your first version im looking forward to V2.

One to watch.

i for one, love it. probably the draggable center part is what really impressed me. good work icd2k3. :)
and to those who say that it is unoriginal, how many sites have that "draggable center part which resizes the image" thing?

[haven]

ok. so i have seen this layout before, and it wasnt this site. I didnt check out the whole site, but im going to lookover it again.
Edit: Ok wait a sec! i never even noticed any of the cool features! this site rocks!

haha yea quite a few people don't even notice it. It was hard to find a medium between letting the user know they can drag the center without like 5 pointing signs flashing "drag here!" lol thanks for the compliment.

[haven]

no prob;)

[×~Chaos~×]

That site is probably one of the coolest I have ever seen! The creator was (and still is) a genius

[Jasninder]

its different...i like the coding more than color options and layout really...
