    hey evin,

    How are things at Tower? Been meaning to reach out to you guys and say hello!

    Your client sounds a bit pretentious... maybe they just need some education? The whole 'eye-level' thing is sort of absurd and moot point if you assume the context we're talking about for the site is your typical LCD monitor that is also typically placed directly in front of the viewer. By that logic the monitor is always at 'eye-level'.

    Sounds like they have some sort of presumptions about viewing content on-screen. I guess if I had to interpret their commetns they're probably looking for a site with a large masthead that eats up the top 1/3rd of their screen so that any content starts below that... just a few dwindling thoughts....

    • Things are great, other than this project. Some big, challenging projects coming soon.

      Yeah, this guy basically thinks he's an expert in a field if he has a friend who works in the industry. He's friends with some very ancient print advertisers, so he believes he's got a leg up on me as far as functionality goes.

      I think he's probably something like 800 x 600. Which is kind of a metaphor for the whole interaction.

    • And yes, he's probably around 800 x 600.e-wo
