Any links to participant sites that have really got creative with css/html?

Cheers

There are plenty on the list...but I\'ll show you a couple recent projects of mine that use Indexhibit and have nothing to do with the current format (for the most part):

- http://www.designlab.be/
- http://www.mischiefpr.com/home/

Still some IE quirks in there but...that\'s normal. These are built on the new unreleased version of Indexhibit and were only possible because it allows for multiple template usage.

Antoine has also done some pretty radical stuff as well.

... this is my favorite! Great work! :)

I can finally give a link to the project's page, the content has all been added.

http://www.naturehumaine.com

Super!

AntoineLafontaine, that site is truly awesome...
I'm now jealous.

:'-(

puh, man, this is nice! didn´t see this thread before. but now i feel like leslie, i am jealous!!
great work, man!

snoep.

Make it a favorite...I think this thread will get alot of action in the future. Thanks folks...it's a pleasure doing all of this with people like you doing such nice things with it.

Antoine, is the slideshow using a plugin at www.naturehumaine.com? If so, where can I get it? I like the look of the flash Autoviewer on my site http://www.tagcab.com (still working on it), but I would rather a java base solution.

Thanks

It's a very custom plugin specific to the client...he has released a more simple version via the forum (which we will soon make an official release):

Here...

Thank you. I'll have a look.

Like Vaska said, this isn't a plugin, but custom code made for the site. Since I guess you mean javascript (and not Java) and like any javascript the source is viewable through your browser, I do not mind people looking at it and learning from what I've done.

If you do use it (or base some code on it), I would appreciate you at least give me some credit. Besides that, I won't be giving any support for it since it is not meant to be and all around solution (read plugin) and would require much more work to be made flexible enough to achieve the plugin status.

I will do help people if they show me they're trying to learn how to make something. That is mostly how I chose if I do help or not in the forum... < wink>< wink>

Someone posted this one in another thread.

Nice horizontal menu.

Yeah, "Javascript" - As you can tell, I don't really write code. I however, am all about learning - So, teach me Antoine :). Seriously, I have been fumbling around until I got the site essentially to where it is now. If I use any bit of your code Eloisa, I will certainly make sure you get credit. Thanks guys!

Sorry Tag, I guess my comment passed as somewhat rude... It's a bad habit I have to want to use "precise" words... please forgive me for that ;)

As for teaching, you first have to teach yourself. Knowing that indexhibit uses jQuery in many of its template, I would suggest you have a look at jQuery's website, it's documentation and examples. If you can manage to get a grasp of some of the concepts there, you'll be on your way. Peeking at the source can also be a good thing, but it might be a step to quick if you do not get an idea of how javascript is used to manipulate a webpage

Then show us your code attempts and we'll try to lend you a hand.

yeah, http://www.designlab.be/ rocks ... love it!

working also on a heavily modified indexhibit site at the moment ... will show it to the public in a few days when it's filled with content.

keep these coming!!!

beautiful site antoine! I like the colour scheme too. I'm simple like that.

these examples are absolutely breath taking and inspiring. I'm currently doing up some portfolios for some art student friends and hope to achieve half of this level of creativity. Well done guys I have to go play with some css now. Thread added to favs.

Hope you have stuff to add to it soon :)

Just seen this site added to the participants list.

Fabulosius - Fabian Weber

*swoon*

Wow, Fabian's site is fantastic.

...a clever/novel (if not so easy to navigate) site from France: -

Jean-Charles Amey

*disorientating*

Indexhibit + the Grid System = Sarah France. This site tickles my inner (and outer) Swiss minimalist ideals: http://www.sarahfrance.com/

Really impressed with the menu layout of this one—Pathword.

blimey, is that Pathword one an Indexhibit unttld?

Yes, it is an indexhibit site. These examples all are.

Yeah I know, I just didn't see any mention of Indexhibit on that last one.

their problem is it's at the very bottom of the page, so if you're using a smaller laptop you won't see it. I see it with my 21 inch monitor at work, but not with the macbook.

They are still working on this...it's pretty experimental. The link is there. They are very nice people too.

Yeah nice, though I find it a little bit troublesome usability wise. It's a bit tiresome to go back and forward between content and menu, it's one click too many imho, this x every time you change page… too many clicks too many ;)

Vaska,

Is there an easy way to get nice text that oversets the images like: http://www.designlab.be/

I love the look.

Thanks

V. et al. -

thanks for a great customizable, reliable, and intuitive product :

Okay Mountain

just launched this today -- first in a series to come.

i have given up on IE all together though - what a pain to make things look right there.

just sent some cash your way. hope it helps.

cheers,

just lauched the new theme for my website. Destroy it! :)

Just saying.
Aweswome.

here's one I'm currently working on...

padding/margins are causing a bit of trouble, but so far so good:

http://www.alifeunseen.com/portfolio/

It acts as it should in firefox/safari - no clue about IE...

It's been moved to here.

It's a good start but is all that code (js) necessary? I'm sure the transition can be faster...it's a bit slow for my tastes.

Keep nudging it forward. ;)

yeah, regarding the code - I left the other options in there to see whether I liked the different accordion transitions, bounce, slide, etc... I've since cleaned out the cobwebs.

And, thanks for the suggestion about the speed of the transitions.

I know it's been said a thousand times, but MANY MANY thanks Vaska for putting indexhibit out - the same for anyone else who's continued to play a part. The constant prodding to at least make the attempt to modify it has really paid off, and has been loads of fun.

Cheers,

The constant prodding to at least make the attempt to modify it has really paid off, and has been loads of fun.

I know that some people don't like the fact that we're nudging people to learn some of these basic things...but once you do things can really add up fast.

Thanks for the note.

This thread is begging to be bumped

Here is a website that I just finished for architects:

http://www.uaps.net

Lot of CSS, some JS and few PHP modifications.

I just updated my website: www.simplestick.com

A couple of plugins, CSS and lots of JS/AJAX

I'll probably add some more custom PHP as time moves forward.

You should put this in the critique section as well.

some of these are AMAZING, but are there any that are downloadable and installable as a theme?

fafa007: the expandable menu from bottom is just nice!!

@ dozens : nope, but you can have a look at their code to see how they do that. Use firebug for firefox, a great plugin.

I recently finished redesigning my portfolio site using a grid format.
