yes
- smartK0
which nav??
j/k but that was my first thought actually -> simplify it!

add some kind of arrow or something.
make it obvious you need to drag something.
besides that i really liked it;

Ignore those lott, theyve obviously got a touch of website overload. Great nav, just needs to be clearer what to do thats all.
Word.

man - took me ages to figure out - have it onmousefollow - not drag and scroll

I'd lose it altogether. It's just annoying.
Sorry.

i'm a big fan of cryptic nav, but that's kind of halfway... either make it easier to use, which would make sense for a portfolio site... or go balls out and make it impossible to use... which maybe doesnt make so much sense for a portfolio. so my advice would be less, or possibly more, but i do think it has some promise.

very much too much to my taste..
the genral layout is already 'heavy'..
not really a pleasant navigation experience

if you want to have a nav that takes thinking- make it fun.
at the moment it seems to be a design flaw rather then a 'challenge'

all points taken!
the site isn't really a portfolio as such, but more of a collection of links to old work (as my memory isn't what it was) and some new stuff.
i'm not looking for work at the mo so i reckon the more confusion the better.... possibly

I like it.
Couldn't figure out what to do until read the other posts - maybe a "drag me" would help?

I'd make it on mouse follow also. Its nice tho

one thing about the "mousefollow" function...
if it was always on mousefollow you wouldn't be able to click on the content panels inside the horizontal scroller.
