@baseline_shift: I see what you mean about the wonkiness. I wasn't aiming for awkward so much as brutal. (Like a 2009 version of some of the punk zines I used to trade for in the 90's.) Maybe I can finesse the style without "smoothing" it out. I'm definitely not looking for gloss on this project. (But here gloss is fine: http://stewdio.org/iquit/.)
The $5 donation is to me. Cause I need it. ;)
I know using the razor on the first page is a downer, but it sets the mood right away. The first thing you see is an arm. You think: "Ok. It's an arm." But the second thing you do is scroll down. That's when you get a sinking feeling that "Options" isn't a term of optimism.
I liked that setup too much to not use it as a front page. Also, it helped the slow / fast dynamic: Page 1 is slow. Page 2 is fast. Page 3 is slow. Etc.
