I know a fair number of people on here that worked or done work for them - anyone involved in this?
Thoughts? It's a pretty radical departure from what we've become used to as the standard internet shop front

Holy crap this looks like something that someone I know designed about 7 years ago.

Impressed someone managed to convince the client that the fold isn't so important anymore.

Looks like all of HUGE's other stuff.
That said, the homepage is alright. Grid is sort of funky, but the massive/huge imagery is cool (no pun intended.) All of the pages after the homepage are pretty lackluster though. Logo treatment is pretty fricking aggravating too (why just slice off ~5%?)

Too much space and too open...

They got lazy on code work. This was done by HUGE, and it reeks of their design touches. Better than the last site, maybe. Magazine-esque layout design always reads better, but this was far from ready to launch. Many features fail to work in Chrome, which is just lame. Any javascript transitions should work in bot FF and Chrome.
I like it on the eye, but knowing who did it makes it stale for me. No offense to anyone here from HUGE. Some of the stuff you did for us left a bad taste in my mouth.

I still see the fold under the rug.

Why are all of the horizontal rules different thicknesses? In fact there are random lineweights everywhere on the site. That little detail is kind of driving me crazy.
- some don't go all the way across either, the dotted ones, some just stop after a few dots.johnny_wobble

Site, spacing, layout, kerning makes my stomach turn.
