the new site is :!!!:

the 1 page idea is great and the scrolling up with the little rocket is genius, ties it all together
my favourite is the cloud city and tremospaceship ....

oh, i just realised thats you and tanya and the little miss!



you said to let you know about weird/not working, so i'm sure you're aware of it but ...
at the moment all the 'see more photos' in the tech specs are just blank links that flip to the top of the screen, (maybe they could on the main screen page as tv controls down the side of the green screens? rather than tucked away in the tech page)
and some of the descriptive text strays out over the bottom of the graphics, tremolessence and elements (the browser is set to 100% zoom)
i dont know if its possible to have those 2 text blocks start a little bit higher so it can all squeeze in

Ryan,
As a website designer/developer, this is easily in the top 5 best websites I've come across. From it's functionality, to it's visual appeal, you really nailed it.

Speaking of which (or not...) you gotta hit me up if you do another run of the set of 3 Star Wars prints. They are super rad and I want them on my wall!

Ah, sorry man- A New Hope is all gone. Everyone was after that one when I released them. I have about 5 of each of the other ones from some guys that pre-ordered and their credit cards were declined.

I posted this in the other thread about the website but it's super appropriate for here too, so I'm gonna copy it here. Thanks a million for all compliments and comments and thoughts, it's all really appreciated!

Thanks for all the awesome comments, guys!

The site is all the brainchild of Bryan Kulba with Kobot Industries, wwww.kobot.ca, he's my pal in Edmonton who has done every version of our website. I went to Bry last year and asked him for a total overhaul of pure pwnage and that's what he came up with. It was really cool, he'd just up and surprise us every few weeks with an awesome idea or image we hadn't seen or even talked about it.. like the cool family pic, that was a surprise out of the blue, same with the upward scrolling plan.. I don't think I'd even seen a website like that before. Bry and his team kept on surprising us and totally blew us away with the end result.

Thanks for the bug reports, guys, much appreciated... there's still a couple tweaks to be made for sure. We know about 'em all so far, I hope the pic links and videos get sorted out this week. Some of the problems you guys have are from not having the most up to date operating system/browser/flash plugin.. all those things have to be current so you see the site normally, it's a hot-rod site.

The extra pic links will just go to the sets with the powder coated boxes but people can still click around from there and see the old stuff. I wouldn't make it link directly, it leads to too many 'will you make me this vinyl finish' emails and there's no plans for that.

I'll mix up the demo videos frequently, I would have already but I don't have admin access to that yet.. soon as I do I'll start randomly changing them every week and I'll show off the cool videos you guys make!
