Great idea. However, from an implementation perspective, it's a little hard to tell what's going on with all the flashing images. Maybe show the first image by default, then wait for a mouseover or something to activate the animated gif.
- codingdave 11y agoAgreed - if the author was trying to highlight the kinds of things available on archive.org, it didn't quite work for me. Instead it just was a jumbled pile of images... Maybe slower images with a link back to archive.org and let people navigate the timeline directly would be more appropriate.
- bakztfuture 11y agoHi guys, thanks for the feedback. I haven't actually done any guerilla UI testing, I just shipped the code earlier today and went to bed haha. I really want people to get "hooked" right off the bat on the homepage, so, I will try to come up with a better solution later tomorrow. I was initially gonna do mouseovers like above, but didn't feel that would work on mobile.
- caseysoftware 11y agoClick through one of the images, it's way cooler and more useful to see the changes over time.
- pzaich 11y agoI had the same initial reaction until I realized that you can click through on the gifs and reach a scrollable list. Here's AirBnB's for example: http://bakztfuture.github.io/startuptimelines/airbnb/index.html#sthash.Bxk4z10P.dpbs http://bakztfuture.github.io/startuptimelines/airbnb/index.h...
