Alf-Life Posted November 17, 2013 Report Posted November 17, 2013 Wanted to bump the old thread, but it's been archived. www.theBigBadowsky.com Updated my site with KZ4 schtuff... removed the pretentious David Mamet quote on the front page Kind of wanted to work in more ['making of'] info on these levels, as I've found it amazing looking back at videos of stuff in say Warhead I did and had forgotten about... but can't really figure out how to do that with this layout, maybe that needs an update too! kikette, mjens, -HP- and 3 others 6 Quote
2d-chris Posted November 17, 2013 Report Posted November 17, 2013 awesome work, I love how you added the boxed games to click on, neat idea Quote
Vilham Posted November 17, 2013 Report Posted November 17, 2013 Thats a pretty good idea to have the quotes from media there. Also, damn thats a lot a of shooters. Quote
dux Posted November 17, 2013 Report Posted November 17, 2013 (edited) Really nice. The only issue I have is reading the text about the levels was kinda hard against the background lines. Edited November 17, 2013 by dux Quote
Alf-Life Posted November 25, 2013 Author Report Posted November 25, 2013 Thanks guys! Heh, yeah I guess it is only shooters... only sci-fi ones too I feel so typecast Dux: yeah, good point - I spotted that before but it took you saying it to make me actually fix it - I've made it a lighter blue, hopefully more readable now!

-HP- Posted November 25, 2013 Report Posted November 25, 2013 Absolutely fantastic layout, love the fresh idea of having the game boxes in there! Great work dude! Also, grats on shipping Shadow Fall, I just played "The Patriot" mission last night, great stuff, loving the game, having a blast really! Quote
Mazy Posted November 26, 2013 Report Posted November 26, 2013 Sweet portfolio you've got and great site as well, reminds me a bit of my own ~ Quote
blackdog Posted November 26, 2013 Report Posted November 26, 2013 Impressive portfolio, congrats! As the others said, great idea to put those quotes.The only thing I'd criticize is the text color for your descriptions, that blue is perfect for "accents" (headings and stuff) but with the small size it just merges into the background pattern. I'd use the blue from the journalists name (putting that probably in black) and/or tone down the intensity of the pattern's lines. Or just have the white background spreaded across the whole column, without a container and with those white pixels above the blue separators, it looks to me like an HTML bug or just too "floaty".

Alf-Life Posted November 30, 2013 Author Report Posted November 30, 2013 Thanks for the comments. Not to bump this again, but I did a slight redesign... it bothered me that the site didn't handle window-resizing all too well and a couple of other things so I also tried to incorporate the feedback here into that redesign. It's a bit grey now, but I prefer it to be 'cleaner' and hopefully more future-proof than the previous iteration. Hopefully the ios7-style 'flat' design won't just be a fad that bites me in the ass later. Thrik and Sentura 2 Quote
blackdog Posted November 30, 2013 Report Posted November 30, 2013 Can only appreciate the fluid design. I like the new palette.Pity for the game covers... but a future upgrade could incorporate mediaqueries to have those back and resizable Quote
