Introducing: Design 8 – Griffith

Griffith was designed for video. Based on our extremely popular Design 3 – Brooklyn Bridge, Griffith has one small change where video thumbs appear underneath the video. Everything else is the same as D3.

Griffith Features

• Big Photos- We call it “dynamic photo resizing.” The image will resize to fit any screen from a 13″ laptop to a 30″ cinema display. Yes, really.
• Easy To Use, Persistent Menu- The menu is always open on the left allowing your clients easy navigation through the portfolios and pages on your site.
• Thumb Grid- Click the word thumbs or hit the thumb icon when mousing over the center of an image and a giant grid of medium size thumbs will appear. The allows your clients to quickly scan your portfolio or your entire site by just looking at the thumbs.
• Video Thumbs- All video galleries feature video thumbs along the bottom of the video. Excellent for showing lots of content. Additionally, each video can have a title that appears when you mouse over the thumb.
• Navigation Everywhere- We put the advance and forward buttons on the bottom of the web page (Note: some clients optionally remove this for a cleaner site design), on the mouse cursor (click on the image) and on the keyboard (click the left and right arrows *only on the new sites).
