Re: [IxDA Discuss] Johnny Holland - it's all about interaction
I do wonder about the image for the article in the CTA not linking to the article itself but to a lightbox window of the image, which isn't really any bigger than the original image - Make the image a link to the article - get Fitt's Law on your side - the bigger the target, the easier it will be for people to read the article about Adrian Chan and his SIxD - Will On Mon, Nov 3, 2008 at 10:10 AM, Will Evans <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>wrote: > I don't think it's too cluttered at all, but the two article CTAs for > Social Interaction Primer isn't confusing at all, just redundant, and those > two pieces or real estate should probably be completely different areas for > different purposes. > > Also - under Books - which of those is not like the others?

Re: [IxDA Discuss] Johnny Holland - it's all about interaction
visually comfortable in the term of color, but the layout may need improvement. 1) Too much elements clutter the screen. Take the "A Social Interaction Primer" for example, the big tag on the left and the small tag on the right display same information. What's more? They lead to the same page. So I really feel confused what's the difference between them and why put such tags with same content and function. 2) general position. I feel the location of "Johnny need you" part tricky. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

Re: [IxDA Discuss] Johnny Holland - it's all about interaction
I don't think it's too cluttered at all, but the two article CTAs for Social Interaction Primer isn't confusing at all, just redundant, and those two pieces or real estate should probably be completely different areas for different purposes. Also - under Books - which of those is not like the others? Kite Runner (while a decent book), has nothing to do with the other books which are all classic interaction design books - get rid of books and all other content that doesn't fit into the ontology of your site. My 2 cents. But still - a noble endeavor and darn decent design - keep it up. - W On Mon, Nov 3, 2008 at 10:04 AM, Alethea Woo <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > visually comfortable in the term of color, but the layout may need > improvement. > > 1) Too much elements clutter the screen.
