Just completed my latest freelance project. Mark Griffin is one of my oldest clients and his site needed a complete rebuild from the ground up. I'm especially happy with the flash based portfolio section in this project. The grid of thumbnails randomises on each visit so the site always stays fresh. You can check out the new site here www.markgriffinphoto.com.
This project is also the first where I have employed Geoff Stearns' FlashObject: Javascript Flash detection and embed script. There have been many different methods written for creating a valid flash embed. Most have had some real drawbacks to them. This method allows you to embed flash in a valid way but unlike flash satay and other techniques there are no side effects such as the loading issue with satay. The method seems rock solid and I'll be using it from now on.
Netdiver Best of the Year (BOTY 05) shortlist released! A list always worth checking out, some really inspiring stuff amongst this lot. Check out the shortlist here.
