Interactive Palace Website Review

[benreynolds4]

Hi guys,

I have nearly finished my webpage for architecture work.
Features include:

all divs draggable
images are enlargeable by double click.
a custom made blog with comments embedded in an iframe


So i want to know what everyone thinks - whether I should change things and maybe you could inform me of the best way around the issues.

Wow... what can I say! It's shocking!

I like the conecpt but i would personally prefer if the actual content area was bigger and a bigger font size...

I would also think about changing the background image. Sure it's cool and all but is it really appropriate for a professional business?

Thanks conor for your input

in what way is it shocking - negative?
the blog is expandable by clicking the work 'max', and what do you mean about the 'content area'? all projects are expanded upon click the folder icon so the 'content are' is kind of dynamic and movable so as not to be fixed to one area


i'm not sure what background image you saw - they are randomised onload -
some of them are quite distracting which I am planning to curate.

thanks again

No i meant shocking in a good way, as in if you saw it you would remember it!

Yeah the max feature is nice I didn't notice it initially.

I have no further complaints!

'Properties' says 250px × 150px (scaled to 1280px × 617px).
Are they all scaled like that? I only thought it was distracting because I couldn't see what it was.

double take: the one with the headless people at the table was wild

The site is definitely unique, but is it really worth the continuous load?

I assume you mean the background images. Yes they are all scaled like that - i am going to change them - the idea is not to be captivated by them - i will change the 'heaviness' of them and perhaps lighten them.

it is a 250px × 150px image - it isn't bound to be a taxing reload

thanks for your offerings

I was referring to the continuous page load, which goes on for over a minute. It makes it difficult to do anything as the cursor goes bonkers. That's all.

yeah - that's the only issue, is that it could be a webpage divided over numerous pages - instead it is one page, with items hidden.

i'm not too phased; internet, browsers and caching is getting better and faster.
