Extremely Creative Site Design

I love the creativity that went  into the design of Jay Schulz’s photography website. Visit it…play around with it…you’ll enjoy it. Trust me. Creative layout, creative navigation, creative content design, the entire thing screams creativity.

Jay is a friend of mine. I have always enjoyed playing around with his website. I just keep forgetting to post it here! Thanks for putting together such a cool site Jay!

This one should go into our Top Sites of 2008. What do you think of it? Let me know!

Click & Drag, CSS & JavaScript Navigation

Prabhath Online is the personal portfolio for Prabhath Perera. This site is a nice, clean, professional looking design. Prabhath has made excellent use of CSS and JavaScript to make the navigation at the right movable. You can click and drag the menu items around the page. If you click on the little plus sign at the right in each of the menu items, they expand to reveal information related to the headline. The color combinations are excellent as well. Nicely done! Thanks for submitting your site and allowing us to check it out.

**Attention readers…would you like us to review your website? Let us know about it and we’ll be happy to check it out!

Non-Traditional Website

In my opinion, this is a very cool website. Enfatico’s site breaks a lot of rules and does it fashionably. No header, no footer, compact, simple navigation and terse content. The big, bold image of the sledgehammer on the front page really sums it all up. It’s effective and in your face. I like it.

Easy to Use Navigation that’s Fun Too

Okay, maybe I’m simple minded (be nice now), but I like the navigation on the Newhall Ranch site. The ‘little hiker dude’ is entertaining. I really enjoyed watching him almost fall off the side of the navigation header. Anyhow, it’s a feature that I haven’t seen on any other site yet and because of its uniqueness, I thought it deserved to be mentioned. What’s your opinion of it? Do you like it or not??

Interesting Content Article

Recently, I’ve been searching for some good articles about content. As you know from this blog, I believe that relevant, high quality content is vital to the success of any website. I found a good article discussing the importance of content this evening at SEOmoz, written by Eric Enge. I would encourage you to read his article. I think you’ll appreciate what he has to say about the importance of developing rock solid content. He has quite a few good suggestions that are very applicable to web designers. And, as a refresher…go back and read my article, “Finding a Great Writer for Your Content.”
