It's been over three years since my last web update, and I've FINALLY gotten around to making a website with some new work. I tried to keep it as simple as possible, but let me know if you guys have any trouble with the functionality.
Lots more work to come once I figure out what else I want to add...
Thanks Qoobs!

really good work

Nice work, I wish that the identities were larger in comparison to the space, they feel small. And the navigation arrows are somewhat light.

Lovely stuff. Site is really smooth and well put together.

Good work Allen. Couple things: Nav could def be improved. Not even necessary if you don't have anything more than brand/print. Regarding the "gallery", I would give a bit more info about the projects. The colors on the site needs some thought behind as they are too subtle and could get lost in some displays out there. The photos could be bigger as well, even fullscreen. At the moment, there is too much air.

Really nice work. You have some great marks in there. I like the simplicity, but I would like a way to explore the work more quickly. Arrowing through everything seems a little cumbersome and slow from a user standpoint. I do appreciate however that you did it with jquery and you can bookmark by project.

Thanks hellogoodbye. Not sure what you mean by improvement of the navigation (there is none). I'll definitely add some more info about the projects, good idea, it really needs it. I wish I could go fullscreen, but I don't exactly have the web-knowledge to execute that right now. Very nice work in your portfolio btw.
- thanks bud. actually, my mistake. I thought the Brand + Print was a button.hellogoodbye

I like this one because of the in-balance-state:
clean work, needs maybe more zooms, more color in presentation, but I am a fool, so don't necessary follow my advice.
the site is nice. i liked the click through navigation.
they grey is a bit to clear for my screen, could be a tick darker, I like the color in the logo though, maybe just more color in the textgifs.
I would get rid of the 'left and right arrows', maybe group them both at the right of the canvas and save some whitespace at its left? maybe not:)
overall very clean and pro, thanks for sharing Antonelli, nice experience!

Well, you don't necessarily have to click directly on the arrows to run through the gallery. The clickable areas cover the entire left and right sides of each image. So essentially, they are grouped together. I might need to make this more obvious though.
Thanks for the kind words, uan!

Nice work man. The only thing I would recommend would be an index so you can navigate to specific pieces. besides that it's, clean, simple, and allows the user to focus on what is most important. Your work.

good work.

Well put together. my favorite mark is your clearwater mark. Great job.

Straight off the grill though, needs a bit of sizing revision. You cannot read off the when its reduced. Maybe it just shows up in my opinion because of the screen version. But great work.

represent the AZ. thats all i really care about.
well...i have some other comments, i see you do "brand & print design", but you have website comps in your portfolio. don't sell yourself short. otherwise, good little portfolio.

where is the first solar logo? i really dug that logo, i think about it every time i drive by the building on the 202.
- i drive past that building every day too. But the logo was for Advent Solar, not First Solar ;)********
- I still need to wait before I can put that logo up. Until we break ties with the ad agency that we got the work from.********
- good to have you back in az! :)********
- oh. i was mixed up.studderine
- good logo anyways.studderine
- thanks stud!********
- i drive past that building every day too. But the logo was for Advent Solar, not First Solar ;)

Great stuff!
My only suggestion is that you name your anchor tags something other than numbers. That way the direct links make a little more sense in an email.http://www.allenantonelli.com/#p…

loved the simplicity.
the use of white space.
would like to see an index.
the black frame of the display seemed jarring to me (the black didn't really gel with the silver stand)- tell that to apple!********
- kidding ;). *noted. thx alice!********

I havent read all the other comments.
Heres mine:
– Dont start with the adobe logotype – its the least strong of your work.
– Zoom.
– loose the mac screen on the web stuff.
– some kinda sorting would be nice: identity, web, print...Nice work + how is it like living in Phoenix?
