This web page is a good example of simplicity gone too far. I guess you don't know where the boundaries are until you have crossed them. This design is off-puttingly empty. I am not saying you have to fill it with bling, but you have to have something to focus on. Just my two cents.
- gte910h 14y agoI could use a little texture on there as well.
- crazygringo 14y agoFont size is also far too large for readability.
- sneak 14y agoOn the contrary - upon seeing this I immediately got the urge to go remove some more shit from my site's layout.
- Joeboy 14y ago> This web page is a good example of simplicity gone too far It's extremely readable and loads very quickly. I wish more pages would go too far. Edit: Although given its otherwise commendable minimalism it seems odd that it goes to the trouble of using a non-system font.
- tedmiston 14y agoI totally disagree. I jumped back just to comment how nice the design is: large typography, sparing color, reasonable line spacing, and no junk. Although I do think the column width could be about 20% narrower, overall, it's fantastic. I think a subtle textured background would be a welcome addition as well.
