I think it's ready to show, finally. Gotta make a couple more tweaks—one image is missing, and we've gotta fix an odd paragraph rag in one place—but I think it's pretty much done.
Report bugs, etc. here. Once it passes the test, I'll move everything to my site.
Major props to skt for the site build. The man is brilliant.

I love it.
The only addition I would make is the title of the project currently being viewed. I didn't realize I was looking at the Formica project upon initial load.

- Look under Info for each project, it's all there.Scotch_Roman
- sure, the info is there, but I personally would like to see a small, subtle, title somewhere.monospaced

you could have made that site with the same functionality with javascript, making it more accessible/linkable/indexable for google searching. the scaling images become blurry when enlarged
- how much enlarged? It should be crisp all the way up to cinema display size.Scotch_Roman
- yep, because getting graphic design work these days has everything to do with being found in google.skt
- 1680x1050, i just pressed F11 to check it out, jpg artifacting around letters could be the original compression techniqueversion3
- defend yourself all you want angry man. i was referring to a search of metagramme +client.version3
- 80% quality for best trade-off w/ load times.Scotch_Roman
- it will lead to the site yes, but i'll have to dig blindly and wait for said project to loadversion3
- he did ask for opinions, but i'm glad i left out the part about you doing a good job coding sktversion3
- nae angry, i'm quite pleased with the site... and i'm used to the fairly common reaction to flash sites. nothing i wasn't expecting.skt
- expecting.skt
- odd that your getting noticeable blurring though. the larger of the two image sizes it 1600x1067.skt

- too many letters in your new name, dudePonyBoy
- the a-m and m-m are offadamrobertson
- Nope, they're good. Trust me.Scotch_Roman
- It's hard to see the serif edges at that size, but a-m are almost touching, and m-m are spaced a bit.Scotch_Roman
- Just got the magnifying glass i use to do crosswords and I confirm that my suspicions are now inaccurate.adamrobertson

Oh, and the nav is collapsible, and you can browse up/down through clients, or forward/back through images, using your arrow keys.

Really nice work and a great departure from your previous portfolio. Another site from skt that is clean as a whistle. Tight all around and good job guys. Now you just need those matching business cards finished up.

Super dope. Some talented folks on here. Works great on my workstation from 2005.

It loads great here. I will agree with dinky that the images need to be a bit sharper, I understand that is a huuuuuge undertaking most likely, but I think it would really help display such beautiful work.
