Really cool landing page for Alex Swanson’s main site. I really like the idea of doing a landing page for yourself from time to time and marketing that page. It would be much quicker than re-working your entire site and you can experiment a bit with it.

I like a lot of the jQuery & CSS stuff going on, with the slideshow style effect on the two forms and the animations on the images and link blocks and stuff. I also dig the vibe and colors of the site. Critically though i’m not sure how related the imagery of the women is with the rest of the vibe of the site. It’s cool, i’m just not sure it’s pushed far enough overall to really sell the ‘throwback’ feel for the site. Good job all around on the production and execution of the site.
