roofs v4.0 goes live

byroofs

roofs is Agnieszka Garofeanu’s great design portfolio. I helped Agnieszka with the coding for the site. The site uses a variable height SWF as described by Hoss Gifford here. This allows browsing multiple large images easily by using the browser scroll bar. I like the way the site navigation is really simple, allowing you to focus on the content.

    Very nice indeed. it’s the first time I hear from Hoss Gifford’s script and it definitely makes sense. I noticed though, that I tend to click the back button because it ‘feels’ so HTML to scroll like that. Which immediately made me wonder why you didn’t implement SWFAddress? Makes total sense for a site like this to allow deep-linking (sending a link to one particular work to a potential client or so)

    bart – good point. I’ve noticed myself hitting the browser back button to get back to the menu. I’ll look at adding back button support in the next version.

    The roofs site you developed is super dope! I’d like to create a full browser flash site similar to roofs and would like it to be able to scroll like it also, however I’m new to flash and I’m wondering how you put all those movieclip/buttons into the dynamic text box which allows the the scroll bar to appear? or does it need to be a dynamic text box like Hoss Gifford’s example? Thanks in advance for any help.
