More like wasted time.
i can tell by the flowery bullshit intro screen that this is going to be fucking dumb. given this, i decided my time would be better spent bashing it. fuck this shit.
Ugliness is so 1998 . . .
good site, boring art
drawings are clichéd and lame. guess it took some time to create that badly-usable and slow site though.
Blatant imitation of Zdzislaw Beksinski's work.
the drawings are neither terribly clever or particularly insightful. the draftsmanship is mediocre at best. the content seems melancholically high-school.
...I don't care. The artist sounds like an idiot anyway.
Nice in theory, but poor in practice. I can't read the font, I can barely navigate the page, and I only found the volume controls (to shut off that annoying music) by sheer luck.
they did a good job on the website, but it is way too much stuff going on for what the subject matter is, the 'simple' and eerie artwork would be better off in a not so 'high-tech' setting... And the art for that matter, is not that spectacular...
Wow, what a great new navagation experience! By new I mean horrible. And by "navagation experience" I mean "pain in the ass." I respect the concept and originality, but there is something quite unappealing about squinting around horrendously small text, to be rewarded with mediocre drawings of a guy on a bench, or even better..Stick Doodles. I like to imagine that making poorly designed websites is what art schools are actually teaching students, instead of how to draw.
Could this have been more boring? I don't think so. Yawn!!!!!
Erm...nice but pointless.
This site is slow, and too creepy to be worth the wait.
I hate this site. Too much stupid flash - takes forever to load, and then everything's slow motion. It's like being stuck in tar, and it's no fun at all. Person ought to consider doing something with his life.
rubbishhhhhhhhhhhhh
very similar to www.mypetskeleton.com, same people?
**such an annoying site**
Seems very likely to either be a ripoff or the creator of the Johnny Hollow website.
slow as shit for no good reason. I didn't "have a problem navigating the site," I just look at it from the standpoint of "Wow, I would be through all these pictures already if they weren't wrapped in this flash interface." So, that's my main complaint. This kind of thing is just visual fluff.
It takes twice as long to load an image as it does to look at it... you have to wait for the image size to rescale, etc, etc, etc. This would be 'cool' if it loaded 50 times faster or so.
some were definitely thought-provoking & quite original. but others were creepy & inappropriate.
It looks like stuff a teenage boy would sketch in his notebooks during a particularly boring high school class.
Pure Shite I dont have the sort of time this thing needs And am aware of all its trying to do IT DOES IT BADLY
Nice page but pointless and creepy
if you don't like it - just go home and fuck yourself. I didn't make this for you.

Your website is the most beautiful and meaningful website I have seen. I sincerely disagree with those crits. To be truthful I had found your website while randomly surfing, and afterwards I googled it's URL to find this dA account. Once again, great job & thanks for sharing.

I stumbled it and did the same . Fantastic work and as a whole makes you feel you've come on the edge of reality and spirit world.
I've sent link to my friends. I'm sure they'll be as amazed as I am.
With its delicate music and unresolvable sadness mingled with feeling of being lonely in your own Universum, it reminds me of David Firth's flash animations

This is by far one of the best artist/portfolio websites I have ever seen. It's very easy to get caught in it and absorbed in discovering your work, which is the whole reason to have an artist's site, eh? Excellent work.

Talescaper [2005-10-26 15:53:54 +0000 UTC]
Very nice design. I especially like the concept of the central picture, although it could be improved. For starters, the ghostly person on the right is much much too vague. It's an incredibly cool idea, but such an idea has to be emphasised. Also, I do not entirely agree with the composition, since it is slightly imbalanced; the image has more objects on the right then on the left and kind of a blank hole somewhere in the middle. The actual sitedesign is very nice, I must say. Very clear and yet creative.

the emotion is overflowing.. it is simple yet it presents your artworks effectively. did you use flash on this? the details are oh so cool.. however, i didn't know where the navigation buttons were at first.. i was very much entertained by the butterflies and the bug on the screen.. but in general, heck it's as close to perfection for me
