the graphics in these is so well done.


the first too are more pertinent but the last demonstrates the mix of virtual graphics in a more real-feeling place. 


This connects with an earlier idea I had to place our products in studio spaces.

This is a really great example of how the style of our website is in direct contrast/conflict with more common graphics styles. 


The kickstarter page provides a nice framework for navigation/menu bar + product page. The secondary nav on top of the page provides users with actions they might need before getting too sucked in and a nice overview of everything that’s available to the page. We know that clicking “updates,” “backers,” or comments will replace the bottom section of the page.


Graphically there’s a lot of space and breathing room around the product page content. The Track16 page is kind of the opposite. The top half is pretty congested and the product page returns some room but not enough to make the page a comfortable place that you want to spend lots of time on.

Links that link to more information within a page. 



I’ve been thinking lately about link signifiers. This is a perfect example of why I believe there should be another way of indicating that a link will simply un-hide information in the page versus whether it will take you to a new page in a more classic link (hyper-text) way. 



In this example “view source” and “API documentation” result in totally different things. I completely missed the tip off with the cryptic eyeball icon next to “view source.”


So I right clicked “view source” so that I could open it in another tab. Which led to an error. When I clicked “view source” within the page there was a nice slide-down animation that was a total surprise! 


However clicking API documentation in the second link provided, which slides down with the page as you can see, results in a totally new page of API documentation.
