Simply beautiful! And I love the idea of the book / turning pages in the portfolio.
By the way… Patagonia to Wrexham!!! That’s one hell of a trip.
All the best,

Will

Thank you Marios! Unfortunately my books for kids are not published yet, but it’s really nice to see someone interested! :-)

Cheers!

Re: Alex Dukal New Website

Machine,

felicitaciones por el nuevo sitio y debo decir que tu arte es admirable.
Recién, vi en algún sitio una foto de un cuadro enmarcado… el del hombre con el muñequito color chicle en la mano…
¿Es de verdad esa foto? ¿La obra tiene ese tamaño?

Bueno, felicitaciones nuevamente y algún día estaría bueno hacer un encuentro de Textpatterners argentinos..

Re: Alex Dukal New Website

Thank you Dale! I will be on travel until 7 or 8 of December, after that I will be able to take some work.
I’m not sure how to pick up your email, but if you would like to send me and e-mail to alexdukal (at) gmail, I can reply from there.

Thx again for those nice comments!

Hola maniqui! gracias por tu comentario. No, esa ilustración no tiene ese tamaño! lo hice con una aplicación on-line llamada dumpr (o algo así), está el enlace en ese mismo post de Flickr, … pero viendo el resultado vaya que dan ganitas de hacer algo así!
Yo estoy viajando a Buenos Aires el 28 de noviembre, si hay otros textpatterners que puedan coincidir la primer semana de diciembre en Baires podríamos juntarnos un rato … por mi parte todo bien.

Re: Alex Dukal New Website

mmm… delicious!

You might want to get that footer on the bottom of the screen in your portfolio; It’s a bit tricky, but possible. I managed to do it here . It’s a W.I.P., don’t look at the slideshow ;) It’s basicly a matter of setting heights and min-heights to body, html, and a container div, and giving the container div a bottom-padding of the same value as the height of your footer (which has to be inside the mentionned container).

Hope it helps.

Thanks guiguibonbon!
I didn’t realise about that detail, just when you mentioned I pressed F11 to have more space on my screen and Yes! the footer is not where I want … I’m going to fix it in a while!
Again: thx a ton!

Well, I guess it’s fixed!
Finally I’ve used a little DOM Scripting from A List Apart that calculates the “content” and “footer” hight to stick the last one at the bottom of the screen. If javascript is disabled the footer will just follow the normal flow as it was before this solution.

Another fix was to implement some .htaccess rules to kill some hotlinking.
When you have a portfolio with images some people use to link directly to your images without knowing that they are stoling some bandwidth that costs money for you!

Thx again

Re: Alex Dukal New Website

Great job on the site and beautiful WORK !! … as everyone said the turning pages metaphor is very cool… i guess you have to upload 3 pictures for every portfolio piece … i am sure some DOM magic could be implemented …

how come you didn’t use textpattern for the blog too ?
