Client requesting design - Not sure if it'll work ?!?
Hi, I have a client (a media company) that is requesting a XHTML and CSS design to showcase their showreel portfolio. They are looking at a 50's retro/vintage style site, based around a drive-in movie theatre, obviously all text, images, video to be contained inside the screen, i personally think this would be quite restrictive and am just open to other ideas in the melting pot!! The 50's retro/vintage vibe i can nail down, have done it a few times before successfully, just thinking of another way to show their showreel/site without the drive-in theme ?? advice,tips greatly appreciated !! |

That one from the Zen Garden doesn't work in IE6, by the way (there's an alternate presentation). I'd use a JavaScript slideshow type thing that gracefully degrades, of course. This is an idea that is really tacky, but if executed properly could work. |
