Re: Feedback on left right scrolling

I don't usually like left to right scrolling - but these pages are designed
that way and they look good.
On my window size though you need to scroll up and down as well as left to
right, and that is annoying.
If the up and down scroll could be avoided they would be a very good design.
It's nice to see something different.
I might even try this myself.
