What on earth does a "personal site" have anything to do with a design being good? It's just as broken on a personal site as it is on a business site. It breaks an established, 20 year old user interface expectation and greatly hinders the usability of the page.
It makes no sense and there is no excuse for it.
- sixQuarks 14y agobecause a personal site is a sandbox where you can experiment. It doesn't have to fit a mold. Same thing with an artist who is doing their own thing vs an artist who is paid to create a design for a company. You wouldn't tell the artist to paint a certain way because that's the way it's done commercially. Same thing here.
- veeti 14y ago...And what does that have to do with this? Sure, experiment all you want with your personal website, but it doesn't change the fact that the site being more "experimental" does not excuse the utterly idiotic and completely broken scrolling/scrollbar UI. It's a piece of shit and it makes the site very difficult to use on a desktop browser. This has nothing to do with "fitting a mold": it has everything to do with _basic functionality_. It's a completely failed "experiment". End of story.
