    Viewing this site was like being on a carnival ride - I freakin' love it! I was a little skeptical when the little photos first started loading as I couldn't see what the big deal was....then I clicked and fell in love.

    and my mother's Puerto Rican........and I love her."

    Hee!

    I'm still going through the site, but I just had to stop and say thanks for pointing this one out.

    All relative, I guess...

    Alan,

    I like this guy's work, and I have to admit the site design is kind of innovative, but it just didn't click with me. After a few minutes looking aorund, I found the whole zoom in, zoom out thing a bit gimmicky and annoying.

    At some point I couldn't tell which shots I had looked at and which I didn't, and IMO there are fews things more annoying than clicking on the same photo serveral times when you've already seen it. The thumbs are too small and far away.

    I do think the guy is pretty skilled at photoshop, as it looks like many of his effects were not just scans, but rather digital creations. It's also obvious after a few minutes that he has a good sense of humor. Still, it's not enough to make me stay on his site for very long.

    I realize it's a playful, hide & seek, easter egg type of thing that is suppose to deliver fun surprises, but to me he takes it too far. Can you imagine going back to this site on a regular basis to check for new work or changes? That would drive me absolutely crazy...

    Hey, wait a minute...that gives me an idea!
