Here's another note:
I went back to the site, and clicked "Julian's Gift" (which appears and acts like a button). So I assumed I would be taken to the case study or image for Julian's Gift. But instead, I was taken to another page, where I had to relocate Julian's Gift again, and click it again. Why? Fortunately, it is located in roughly the same spot as the previous page, so it's not too much of a hunt.
The worse case is "Transition Town." I click that image on the homepage — which also appears and acts like a button, but doesn't do what the user would expect it should do — and I am again taken to that secondary page. Only now, Transition Town has been kicked to the other side of the page, where I have to re-click it again to get more info.
This is redundant and unnecessary clicking, and could get very frustrating for all manner of users and potential clients.
Strive for more simplicity, clarity and open-ness. A clickable image suggests to the user that they will go directly to information about the project described in that image. Once there, they should have a simple, clear way to either return to their previous state, or navigate elsewhere on the site.
- Yep, well aware of this issue. It will definitely not be a problem with the new version. Thx.besler
