I just didn't say anything, neue.
Trying to be friendly and none-too hyper-critical'n'all that.
It's so often the case with talented artists - their graphic design is often atrocious - and the opposite is true too - graphic designers are often shit [pure] artists.
Personally, I'm happy to maintain the middle ground - bestriding mediocrity like a colossus.
I say 'colossus', the world doesn't even know I'm here.

I know!

You sayin' I'm mediocre, OSFA?!
YOU WEREN'T SUPPOSED TO AGREE - IT WAS A CRY FOR HELP!

I too give my accolades. The art is fantastic, and while I have seen better typography, I have also seen much worse. (the plan c IS bad though )
I really love the ethereal, painterly quality he gives to his movie posters. I think they show a good use of light throughout.
Really like the toro CD too...

Putting something out for display on NT is like putting a KICK ME sign on your own back.

lighten up people, after seeing a few posts lately and some really shitty sites, this one is pretty good. I like!
Nairn, you know I got your back dawg!

sorry to be so harsh, to each his own... I'm very narrow-minded and have a hard time getting past such overdone and distracting type treatments, in the end it overshadows his flair towards image-making and doesn't aid in the overall communication of the individual pieces...
whenever someone tries to play with type in such gymnastic ways, I feel that it's trying to compensate for a poor/weak copy concept...

Hey jaline, I that site is taking too long to navigate cause I'm stealing wi-fi right now, and it's slow. I'll have to check it out when I get home...seems cool though.

are you fucking joking me?
the website has more fucking popups then a britney spears lyrics page. how can you fucking excuse that on any level?

yeah type could generally be better. the poster i mentioned had a nice idea behyind it. i am sure some of us here could have slapped better typography on it.
the rest of the type is indeed overdone, consistently overdone; and therefore mediocre.
