I’ve never seen anything like it before, and can’t conceive of any reasonable explanation for this utterly gratuitous use of Javascript. Using Javascript to alter the background color isn’t new, clever, original, or remarkable — except in this case, where the results are remarkably hard on the eyes. Yes, I know there’s a dispensation of sorts for graphics design sites, but in this case, if I were looking for a graphic design studio to work for me, I’d run the other way as fast as possible.
I also notice that one of the examples that pops up when you click the last link, “Two Steps Back, a book for 55 Diesel, Milan” has an image with severe glare from the lighting, plus a large empty area on the left. What is the point of that?
Be sure you have web page-specified colors enabled, ditto Javascript…
