Thanks for your reply. I'm not involved with Stampede at all but as a front end dev I'm always looking towards new interesting ways to present content. I have a project coming up that's going to be timeline based and immediately upon seeing Stampede's website I figured the beginning section (The Power of Stampede) could applied usefully. Without user input and feedback I'm going off of my assumptions and those aren't always the best for the end user.

For what it's worth, I thought the site was very well done.

That was one persons opinion. I liked the site itself. Don't just go by one persons opinion. There will always be the people who like to stick with their plain html sites and always go "grr" when the pages are modernizing.

  I never said I was going solely off of his opinion, just that it's nice to see feedback about the presentation of the content from a front end developers and end user standpoint. I'm a firm believer in making things functional and useful and then adding things on top of that to make them pretty, more readable, and if possible exciting. Thanks to you as well.

Thanks for finding my opinion useful! I'm not necessarily against any particular technique. But what I am against is when a page is so over-designed that the design distracts the user from the text. I'm here to read the information... or if you've got good graphics... to look at pictures that give me information. Besides, this style of page is no longer "ahead of the curve". Parodies of this kind of page have already come out, so the "fashion trend" and "flair" of this style of page is going away IMO. www.kitkat.com/android/ So if you aren't doing as well as _parody_ sites, you honestly aren't going to impress me the slightest. In essence... these sorts of overly designed super-animated pages are "soooo last year". </valley girl accent>
