[...] 10 seamless website designs One of the challenges in designing websites is to create a layout which takes into account all the different screen sizes at which it may be viewed. Some websites use fluid layouts (where sections of content will automatically resize to fit the screen dimensions) to get around this. [...]

Thanks for sharing. I really enjoy the “Matriz Comunicado” and “Minimal Joomla” sites. I have been afraid to live outside the box… maybe it is time to go seamless!

kristarella:
I think I know what you mean about the background suddenly showing a gap when you scroll sideways. Send me a screenshot if you’d like. I work between a 20″ monitor and a much, much smaller laptop, and funnily enough I only get the effect on the laptop.
I hope you find a fix for your header – let me know what it is, if you do!

I like Digital Zoo’s use of space and having everything on one page is quite nice.

I love the ones that work smaller, but have a nice background on larger ones. I’m not sure about Yellowood, Ad Literam and Minimal Joomla at smaller sizes, they seem to be for 1024 and up and they sideways scroll at smaller sizes. Not that it makes their sites deficient in anyway, mine scrolls at smaller sizes… just not sure they’re as good examples as Jesse Stephens and Matriz.

I’ve tried to make my site work ok at larger sizes, but I think the edges of the header will fall off to black if you go large enough. Could be very ugly. Still trying to think of a good way to fix that.

p.s. Have you ever seen a phenomenon where the background image only extends to the edge of the browser when the page is loaded and when you scroll sideways the background isn’t loaded? I’ve taken screenshots if you don’t know what I mean. It’s pretty annoying. It would make this “seamlessness” less effective if you had your browser scaled down and then increased the size.
