Newsflash: nobody but web nerds cares even a tiny little bit about whether they use tables or CSS for their layout.

I hate to be that guy, but I agree...

Really nice effect, not seen that before. I can't believe that someone that talented is still building sites with tables!

Nice look though it’s a shame that the implementation is such a layout-table-laden non-semantic soup

http://webleeddesign.com has another similar (even better looking imho) alpha-png bg/scroll trick which also looks v cool.

I take your broader point about exceptional design / standing out though – just think it’s a shame it’s not implemented more elegantly…

That is a really nice effect. I've bookmarked it in my brain for future experiments :P

A side point: bit of a shock when I viewed source! Thinking outside the box from inside the box :)

I really like the scrolling effect and the fading in of the footer too. But, seriously, have you looked at the code? I wanted to puke after doing just that.
