I love this site, and especially the scaling background images, really well executed. Typesites had a good review of this site recently: http://typesites.com/get-and-give/
The typesites interview explains the technique. Basically, by placing a .png with a width of 100% in side a div with a width of 100%, you can achieve that effect. Pretty impressive work.
I’m not that impressed. Content on the right hand side isn’t done for a reason. The nav at the bottom of the screen is terrible to use… you don’t know where to look after you click a link. Maybe it’d work in Japan?
Very creative and unique in terms of composition and structure. Also very clean and pleasing to the eye. I particularly like the subtle transparency in the content area. Nice work!

And what is that reason?
Do magazines not use the right side of their pages?
I see nothing wrong with the navigation.
Lol @ the scaling background comments.
Have a look at Palm’s “pre” page. It’s been done there too. You don’t need to use a png, any image will do. The browser handles the scaling for you.
Sorry, I didn’t mean to imply that only a .png would work. That’s just what GAG has done.
