A good friend of mine put up his photography website a few days ago, some pictures are just amazing.

The design of the page is quite nice to, take a peek!

Tell your friend his site is soo trendy but not functional at all. No photos in the portfolio? What is the point?

Fronting a website with a self-portrait isn’t usually a good sign…

But, has to be said, there are some interesting portraits there – very well presented (even if the sideways-scrolling interface is a little weird). But, it has the advantage that after studying the first few images, the complete series was already cached.

This guy knows his photoshop.

The overall experience would be much better if a few of the seriously ugly face-pulling shots were dropped. (Freedom, near, freaky, pierced tongue)

My favorites are ‘surfing the net’, ‘cold’, ‘warm’, ‘hope’, ‘visions’, ‘disappointment’.

‘Cold’ is there twice.

all I could see under portfolio was an animated drawing (very nice) but never found anything else so I left. A nice looking interface that is confusing is NOT good design.

I’m guessing your puter is not set up very well.

There must be a hundred pics there.
Nice selection, however the publisher is a bit too into cropping.

I second that… the UI design is very bad…

I saw no navigation system either and my computer is set up VERY f***ing well. So to me that is bad design. (or maybe it’s a IE thing)

Just gone back to the site and THAT navigation bar was NOT there when I went to the site earlier. Secondly, the pics have been cropped too much. Half a face here there and everywhere. Nah, pretty poor and pretentious. BC

LOL, Yes, like I said, the guy is way too into cropping. An artistic thing, to be sure, and hardly pretentious but way over done.

After looking up the dictionary for the word pretentious, yes, I used the wrong word. Arty farty is what I choose now. However, I did like his site layout although I imagine if you are using a big screen and high resolution it will look kind of lost in the middle.

Yep, It is a bit small and Arty Farty is a good word for his pics. It would be ok if
he just did a few like that, but for whatever reason they are all like that. Maybe it’s the style he’s working on at the moment.
