New Photography Website!

I'm currently working on a new layout thats responsive for my photography portfolio. Its got a fixed sidebar which is going to act as menu and footer.

The whole thing is going to be so minimalistic and all on the "index" page so I can have loads of space for the images I'm going to store. It's going to be anchored links as well so its going ot be one hell of a really long page. But i'm indecisive at the moment about the anchored links and might incorporte some jQuery to make a slider to different sections, and make it really interactive.

That whole grey section is going to be the flowing content. I wouldnt mind it going sideways because then it will give the effect of it rolling under the sidebar like an old scroll. or i could use jQuery to slide to an anchored "hidden section" and then scroll down. but it needs to be responsive, so wehter some devices will become confused and not display the scroll bar proerly and throw users off is my biggest worry.

More will be updated as the days go on, but because this is site is so simple i may have the layout and UI ready to use in the next few days seeing as what you can see (above) has only taken me an hour and a half!

Here's the CSS for my sidebar and the future RESPONSIVE elements to help it on different OS's

 That's the "sidebar" CSS, to fix it to the side and have it cover 100% height.

This is the CSS for the responsive design, I'll uplaod the rest of this sectio when the layout is complete and I've got all my measurements correct.

Brand new client who's a friend of mine has just started his own technology company, and offered some work! He wants a technologically inspired website with inspiration from dues ex and other things to that extent!

So parallax scrolling back ground, corners cut off boxes and columned information boxes with resizing index menu, metallic colour schemes! It's gonna be a big build, especially being CSS designed!

We've go logo design to go on as well! It's going to be a big job that's going to chop and change as the ideas develop!

Gonna add details and fixes and more details about the coding as I go along!

CSS is never ending! Posting up new web design pieces soon! www.twistedtreemedia.com is going to have a make over with all these new skills I've got!

Anyone tried Google Webfonts?

I was flciking though some forums yesterday and was thinking about fonts and there effect on the page?.....can they really slow a page down? can they really annoy a visitor to your web page so much they will never return?

Yes they really can! so so much! The more font variations you use on your website, will slow your website down! Not by much but enough to annoy potential customers or followers, its just so much fot the HTML or the CSS to handle when it could be focusing on other things like that really cool menu animation you've got going or the image carousel for you product gallery that takes up a MASHOOSIVE div tag! And besides sometimes....it just looks tacky and cheap! 

Pick a decent font for your content that is easy on the eyes and easy to read, you can always use fancy fonts to attract attention or for a design purpose, doesnt look as cheap and tacky and sometimes adds a nice edge to your website and makes it look more professional if you can adjust menu fonts when someone rolls over it or use a certain font for a "collection" on you website of someones work! fonts and content make or break a website! Take care with your coding too, sometimes throwing in too much code variation can do damage to teh structure to the website, specially when you do too much copying and pasting and you put a closing tag in the middle of a piece of code that turns that specific piece of code....into a jumbled mess!

It would be nice to get a chat going on here about people different take son web fonts, from a design perspective and from a users point of view too!
