WSA Winner
Wednesday December 29th, 2004
The last Silver Star of the year goes to the (very) personal site of Martin Smith for the excellent usage of bleached colours, left-aligned layout and clever, unusual navigation. I also really dig how each section is indicated by a "tab" on the left. Since the text is a bit on the light side I will make a silent wish in a couple of days for a way to increase the contrast a la Zeldman.
A very Happy New Year to everybody! Keep your markup lean, mean and valid in 2005!

Oh my, it is just amazing! Clean and simple, colours that match nicely and that also give a very proffessional look plus nicely written markup (with great id names). Well done!

very nice site...clean and simple.
i do have a gripe with password protecting your portfolio...why put potential clients through the hassle of asking for access?

I really like the side tab on this site. Everything is nice and clean, and easy to navigate. It has been a great reference for me while working on some new design material.
