This site baked my noodle. At first I just started scrolling down then I realized something weird was going on. The background was doing something weird but I couldn’t quite put my finger on. It took a minute to really grasp what was going on but it’s actually a really simple little css trick where the background of each post is fixed, and it tiles within it’s own container. It’s a bit of a trippy effect, almost so much that it distracts from the content. Once you get beyond that, the site is nice and clean, with good content, mostly about music. Good job, Jarred.
The Call to Action, Revisited
The Call to Action hasn’t changed in a decade, but the bar has. A fresh look at prominence, copy, mobile tap targets, and accessibility, with lessons from three major design systems.





That is a nice effect, I think it’s more the effect that the site is showing off (the designer’s ability to make something trippy) over the actual content itself.
