I decided it was time to get rid of the old layout and bring in something new. I like websites that are clean, straight to the point and let me find what I need with minimum fuss. If you are reading this through RSS or email, visit the site www.pixelsumo.com
Rather than big scrolling pages as before, the homepage contains only the latest post. I have made looking through the archives and searching much nicer, by giving every post a thumbnail and summary. You can also view all thumbnails on one page and my flickr photos are included.
I started Pixelsumo in 2004 and on average have posted around 4 times per month. Some people have mentioned to me that I don’t post enough. Its important for me to post work that really interests me within interaction design and I intend to keep it that way. Pixelsumo should feel like an extension of who I am and what gets me excited.
The lack of posting is also due to this not being my day job. I have been very busy lately developing software for Greyworld’s Monument (more on this another time), creating my own work, organising the next This happened and co-ordinating SomethingLabs.
What do you think of the new site? Please post your comments & suggestions.

I like the updated design on pixelsumo - very nice!. It’s quite impressive when you click on ‘view all’ and see just how much you have covered!

Beautiful typo, clear concept. The black shadow guy at the top-right corner. Perfect.

hi chris,
the old one looks like reading a diary- quiet and yet, lush! the new one feels like going into a library, a little hurried? ha!
but i love pixelsumo always, like to see it growing, blooming in 4 seasons!

It looks great - clean and clear. I have mixed feelings about putting only one post on the front page - but I’ll get over it!
