rdl answers in better detail than my awareness extended to - I just found it easy to skim for the relevant links in a sea of information that didn't feel overwhelming.
- rdl 14y agoI'm horrible at actually doing design, but better at figuring out what I do and don't like about design. It is a curse :(
- dmor 14y agoThis was really helpful, thank you for jotting down your thoughts. It is especially interesting that you like the cropped images, I have been debating that design element quite a bit. I can't stand the masonry effect used on Pinterest
- rdl 14y agoWhat I'm liking more and more is images which bleed off the viewable area, then are clicked to expand to more conventional composition. The small-form representation doesn't need to be complete, it just needs to be interesting. I'm not sure if there's an automated way to pick an exciting close crop, though.
- dmor 14y agoWould you prefer that when you click you are sent off to a new page entirely, or do you just want a modal to pop open with an expanded version of the image and a bit more info?
- rdl 14y agoIt depends. When I'm on the desktop, I generally do the mod-click so I get a new tab, and for those, I'd want a new page. When I'm on the iPad, I'd want a modal.
