WSA Winner
Friday January 28th, 2005
After the success with éS Footwear and ThirtyTwo you'd think the hotcrew would have earned themselves a permanent Hawaiian surf vacation. Instead they seem to be working harder than ever and can now almost call WSA their second home.
Etnies is a sleek blend of flash spots and well organised xhtml strict where the main layout is used with a different colour theme on each section. And yes, I'm really trying to avoid calling it a template... :)
I also really like the design of some of the sneakers. The tanned Arto for example, US size 12, is looking mighty fine.

I have a pair of blue artos and they kick ass.

Indeed, the site is very cool, but it also demonstrates the difficulty of using flash with web standards. One of my browsers only sports Flash Player 6, and I'm left with a big white gap in the page--no alternate content, no explanation. WSA winners should really have a better method of integrating propriety technology or avoid it at all.

Yikes! We didn't expect to receive an award so quick. Thank you WSA, now there's even MORE pressure to fix all the bugs, (such as the one Ryan pointed out).
Dunno if this is the correct place to do this, but The HotCrew is looking for help.

Bow before morons. These boys have the interweb on lockdown.
