Please ditch the generic stock photo of a lady on a broken laptop on the beach. It makes your site look like a cheap travel agency.

Go for a home computer setting or even an office setting.

Like one of these or something.

Maybe I'm in the minority but I like the beach photo.


We would love to get in touch with any great designers out there that can help us with this.



Oh wow. Andrew really is great. Very nice work.


Just to let you know that if I have javascript disabled (noscript) on my browser, most of your links for the portfolio don't work. Don't know if it matters in the real world, but just a heads up.


It doesn't matter in the real world.

I'm pretty sure no one even bothers checking if javascript is disabled. I know you can't access Facebook without it (or at least with Lynx); doesn't that exclude basically every web app?


Yeh I know it's a pretty crusty build. Just relying on the cargo collective cms, as I've had no time to build something myself.


I think the beach photo is great. It says "focus is on humans, not on computers", "ease of use". I would really not put a photo of just a laptop up there unless you are selling laptops.
