Review:

I have always been a sucker for one-pagers and this wonderful new approach to the concept is just great. The site scrolls smoothly with a little help from our friend javascript, without intruding the natural flow of semantics. Although it's been around for a while, the green More needs to be recognized for pushing the boundaries of what can be done with standards and javascript, while still keeping things simple and pleasing to the eyes with a good sense of design and copy.

I've said it before and I'll say it again. 2005 is going to be the year javascript made the long awaited comeback on the web design scene.

It looks great, there's no doubt of that.

However, I personally find the navigation very unintuitive. That may or may not matter depending on who the target audience is.

Nice site but no breakthrough in javascript - Jon Hicks did the same thing a few years ago.

I believe this site clearly achieves what it sets out to do, and with a straightfoward but stylish design. I've given it a rating of 9 because it ticks the right boxes!

I greatly admire the simplicity and lovely design of MORE. When I think of an excellent minimalist design, this is what comes to mind.

This is hands down one of the best design I've seen in quite sometime. Ten.

For an outfit called 'more', I appreciate the restraint that has gone into designing this site.

It gives you all the information you need.

I actually first looked this site javascript disabled and liked it better than when I enabled it.

Robert> The site doesn't try to be ground breaking - the javascript is borrowed from hicks. Check out http://www.shauninman.com/mentary/past/more_like_it.php

Well, just to be clear, Jon Hicks did use it on the excellent Agape Workplace Initiative site quite some time ago. But the true author of the script is (which Shaun Inman also mentions) Travis Beckham of Squidfingers:

Credit where credit's due. :)

Oh, and by the way, I love the site. Can't wait to see more (ahem...) of their work.

Absolutely fantastic. I intend to rip it off as soon as possible.

It doesn't work in Opera, very well at all :/

Please take a look at this fantastic detail: page fades at the bottom of the window.

Overall this is a very nice design. Clean, simple, good color selection, its got the looks of my preference. Beautiful job, and have to love the fade on the bottom along with the scroll script. Although, I still tend to use the scroll whell more, but nice to see something different than the usual.

The ultimate minimalist approach should apply to the whole ie design and content.

Great minimalist graphic design which luckily says what good designers they are, because first impressions of the rambling text content are less than stellar. After reading through, I felt they were blowing their own trumpet in a way that fellow design professionals rather than clients would appreciate? And capital-lettered titles, yuk. I dont think I bothered to read one of them, too much like hard work. But yes, very cool overall, and I will bookmark them just in case.

Let it be known that this was actually designed by Shawn Inman.

It looks clean, stylish, and amazing. Mostly I like the way how green tabs done, and headings font
