I've just seen this site. I don't want to jump on the band wagon but what the heh. It's awful. I used to really like their old site. Can't be arsed to try to work out how to get round the dodgy navigation to see all the stuff anymore.

I don't mind it that much to be honest. It gives you something to muck around with. It works perfectly well and I would certainly remember it if I were a client and was going to peoples websites and seeing who I might like to use.

although.. the thought came to me just now..
could it be an ironic statement (like loveCreative) but just wasnt pushed far enough and backfired? hmm....

Not great, but seen worse. Pointless use of flash. Badly done.

wow
unbelievably ordinary/clunky/safari-unfriendl...
but then it's not aimed at us (the design industry), and they are very successful, so who knows?
the trouble with industry sites like qbn is that we all understand each other and know what we think is good and tend to forget there's a real world out there...
but even so... wow, it sucks

Utter shite.

i agree with The Serif too.
the site looks like its straight from 2001, built by someone with who's just tweaked a tutorial that they've downloaded from ye olde praystation site - and they havent even tweaked the design, just left the fonts and layouts he'd dropped into the tutorial as placeholders/demos.

it would have been a cutting edge and interesting site in 1999. now it just seems clunky and crap. makes you work harder to see their work than you could actually be bothered with. this is the kind of project that gives credence to people who don't like flash.
my 2 cents. lose them under the couch cushions as you will.

Seriously, for a branding firm of 50 plus that is utter shite

Flash detection doesn't work in safari.

have to agree with the serif here, it felt pretty clumsy.
- Agree. Don't dig itbabaganush
- I zoomed in and out on one box and then closed it. Don't know..... just not that exciting.Sketchy
