Our comments:
Tom Nulens' personal web site features an easy-on-eyes design, an interesting menu system that reminds the Windows start menu, and the most uniquely presented resume we have ever seen. The animated butterfly with a smooth drop shadow steals the show. 100% Flash.

didulica (44) - Dec 5th, 2002 Presentation  8 Graphics  6 Usability  8 Technical  8 Personal Slant  7 Overall 7.4 minimalistic and wonderfully intuitive navigation marc_nichols (57) - Jun 25th, 2002 Presentation  6 Graphics  7 Usability  8 Technical  7 Personal Slant  5 Overall 6.6 the site has a nice flow to it. navigating it is a dream, but as said before I do feel that the site lacks a certain identity. The image at the home seems too forced, it lacks the powerful simplicity of the rest of the site. Hanson (28) - Apr 25th, 2002 Presentation  6 Graphics  4 Usability  6 Technical  6 Personal Slant  5 Overall 5.4 not bad attempt to minimalistic approach. however, where successful examples always have a certain tension, vibration between the few used elements, this site is mainly lackluster. ugwump (31) - Apr 16th, 2002 Presentation  9 Graphics  10 Usability  8 Technical  9 Personal Slant  9 Overall 9.0 Really well done simplicity. You might be curious as to why I gave the graphics a 10. That's because the few graphics that are there are done almost perfectly. Definitely a nice menu system, although the transparency was a slight nuisance with the background. Very nice.

Pearl (31) - Jan 3rd, 2002 Presentation  9 Graphics  4 Usability  7 Technical  7 Personal Slant  8 Overall 7.0 lovable little portfolio site. Nice chance from the average portfolio site. Franky (13) - Jan 2nd, 2002 Presentation  7 Graphics  3 Usability  6 Technical  7 Personal Slant  7 Overall 6.0 Tom dares to think minimalistic, which is commendable. However, he loses track of the site's goal (displaying work, skills) in his attempts, and therefore it becomes rather bland. A well designed dry cracker in desperate need of some toppings. Fenia (15) - Jan 2nd, 2002 Presentation  10 Graphics  4 Usability  9 Technical  9 Personal Slant  9 Overall 8.2 A very good use of Flash, easy to explore, fast loading, interesting layout. Zlatan (14) - Dec 26th, 2001 Presentation  6 Graphics  5 Usability  6 Technical  7 Personal Slant  5 Overall 5.8 Sympathetic but average. Shawn (34) - Dec 22nd, 2001 Presentation  7 Graphics  2 Usability  6 Technical  7 Personal Slant  5 Overall 5.4 without that lame graphic it would be a good site. //udminc (12) - Aug 3rd, 2001 Bravo, it's been some time since we've seen something so clean! Fast loading, wonderful asthetics - extremely soothing. by Jean   (unregistered) - Jul 30th, 2001 Tom's site is beautiful in it's simplicity and elegance. His architectural design brings a new light to all web designers and it shines above all the rest.
