Beautiful as always Joen. I’m happy to see you’re using the CSS3 font property. I think it’s wonderful! I’ve been stalking you for ten years and felt bad for not commenting on here so I thought I’d display some love for once. :)

Your Turtleshell website… I can’t even describe… so beautiful. I really fell in love with that website when I was younger. The music, the animations, the color schemes, everything. I really was immersed when I visited. One of the best flash sites in web history. Keep up the good work!

Joen: If you’re on Windows, however, you can enable them. Rightclick your chrome shortcut, and right after the app path where it says “chrome.exe”, add –enable-remote-fontsThat should work until they’re enabled by default. Does for me.Thanks again.

There we go, the article I read on it earlier had “font” rather than “fonts” — working beautifully now!

Profuse thanks, much appreciated.

Levi: Clever how you managed to integrate the ‘latest images’ into the background and I really like the way the ‘notable’ section folds out to the side when browser resolution is high enough.

I wondered when someone would pick up on that ;)

Levi: Sadly the latest version of Chrome doesn’t have embedded fonts enabled, so I’m missing out there, but looks great in Firefox and Safari.

Yeah that's one of those "get with the program guys" issues with Chrome.

If you're on Windows, however, you can enable them. Rightclick your chrome shortcut, and right after the app path where it says "chrome.exe", add --enable-remote-fonts

I have to agree with Jonathan above; this is your best design yet (in my opinion). The colours are great, very subtle but interesting and I love how it all ties together.

Very cool to see your ‘in-progress’ animation, I like the way it grew over time, every step was good, but the next was always better.
Congratulations Joen, you’ve done an amazing job.

I finally step out of my feed reader, which is a rare occasion, and I love what I see. Great job on the redesign.
