Alex, this is great! Great way to show off your skills. I <3 it.
@DanC I’m really sorry but those are not ‘a few similarities’ my friend. I’ve seen these techniques used on other websites and there are tons of other ways you could have used them without making it look so similar. Do not confuse inspiration for lack of creativity.
Like someone else mentioned what a fantastic weblog this is. Generally I dont take some time with a comment although on your work you deserve 1. Congratulations are so as

I’m on the fence on this one.
On one hand I’m really impressed.
On the other, I know that a number of these scripts aren’t custom.
Then there’s the styling, which is somewhat unusual for an HTML site…
…but not that unusual for a Flash site.
Then there’s the fact that it’s a personal site, and an experiment.
So how do you critique it? The site author is, after all, free to do as he pleases, since there’s no criteria (e-commerce, etc.)
@dudey Besides jQuery and the lightbox, EVERYTHING is custom. As a matter of fact I did my best to give the functions funny names like
Sailor.setSail(); or Rooms.enter();
)
But thanks
@Alex Fair enough!
