p.1 #1 · responsive frontpage draft

well,

Having discovered the potential benefits from responsive design (thanks to the advices i got in a previous post of mine) I decided to go responsive at least in my desktop version site so it will adjust to the different screen resolutions, I still believe that the tablet and smartphone versions has to be different in terms of image weight due to the possible slow connection the user may have.

This is the basic structure of the frontpage I am working on at the moment.

C&C more than wellcome.

Thanks,

Jaime

It is responsive to my browser resizing.

Your images seem to be of low resolution. A few of them are down right blurry.

Thanks Spencer, they are inactive at the moment, it is a draft and I am still working in the design.

First impression- ok. Get rid off the blurry image- it pops up first and may couse a potential client to skip to another photographer

Problem with displaying large images is that they have to be just great in every sense- sharpness in particular. Many people have 27 inch. and bigger monitors nowadays, not to mention large tv's. And it's not easy to find a golden solution- pictures should be sharp and overall good quality and on the other hand they should load quickly.

It does exactly what it's supposed to do. When you resize the window the site resizes itself automatically. Do you know of another way to test that feature on different browsers without creating a live draft?

umm yea i get that. but why post for feedback if it doesnt do ay thing! Make a dummy site that actually works and get feedback onit. once you perfect it then move it over to your real site and make it work with your real info and images.

Putting up a site that doesnt do anything and asking for feedback is like asking a blind man if this photo you just took is in focus.

Thanks for the feedbacks,

WNStudio: I will pay attention to those details of sharpness and nearly perfect images.

Maxwell: yeah there´s a few online simulators but I am just building a responsive site for desktops with different screen resolutions, for ipad and smartphones I redirect to another lightweight images version.

Bytheway,

The title of this post is "responsive frontpage draft" not "responsive site draft" if we just read ...

Firefox has a built-in responsive testing tool.

Tools -> Web Developer -> Responsvie Design View

This way you don't have to read about those who are complaining about viewing a "draft".
