Skip,
Thanks for the compliment!
Our Fashion House demo does resize, but only once the screen size gets
to 450px or less (and is one product wide). The same technique can be
used for other screen widths (so we could have a 2 product wide version
at say 600px). For the demo it's probably worth doing, to illustrate a
truly responsive approach, interacting dynamically with different screen
sizes. I'll challenge our UI team to put something together.
It gets very interesting targeting very specific devices or sizes of
screen -- at what point do you lose some basic functionality when
morphing content to a smaller device size? When a user has the
flexibility, such as a desktop browser, then this stuff is all great and
makes for an impressive demo. I know that as an iPad (or iPad mini) user
I'm perfectly happy with a "regular" presentation -- I wouldn't want
anything else. Leads to some very interesting debates (as you well know!).

I was refering to the coloring, use of gradients on mouseover for buttons,
and the like. Very nicely done.
In my opinion, your could have styled your eCommerceListItem and/or
productListItem so that on smaller screen widths, the div are two wide and
then one wide. Its also pretty nice to have the images smaller on mobile
devices. Checkout qz.com to see this all work.

Skip,
Do you mean the end-result UI? This was a nice challenge for us -- the
client wanted a new logo and a completely new look. I think it works.
And more importantly, the client loves it!
Or the fact that all the styling is delegated to the CSS? We've gone to
great pains to allow styling in the CSS with no back-end code changes.
So far it's working! And don't forget our "small device / mobile"
solution uses a responsive CSS approach, check out
http://bigfish.salmonllc.com:8082/online/shop/main and resize your
browser to less than 450 pixels (work in progress, but you get the idea!).
Either way, thanks!

Subject: OFBiz / BigFish: New client is hooked!
All,
I'm proud to announce another client to the BigFish platform.
Checkout: www.eagansemporium.com
What was interesting with this implementation was that the client was
already an OFBiz platform user. We were able to basically "snap on" the
BigFish solution; do some CSS styling; add some BigFish content and the
site was done. Products were already loaded, payment gateways setup etc.
which made for a very fast implementation time.
It's a nice simple site and with a focus on the ultra high-end
"indulgence" market! Now that they are on a new platform I know there
are plans to add more products and really begin to build up a good
business following -- something that was not a priority when content
could not be managed quite so easily.
