Since October, iFilm has been owned by MTV. Maybe that's part of the reason the design has been getting some attention in the past few months. Their's a news story about it here.

Steven Garrity -

Kottke links to a similar advertising-background technique, but in print as the Dayton Daily News runs a full-page background of King Kong on their front page.

I first type "home page" rather than "front page" when describing the newspaper. I wonder how long it will take until that becomes the norm.

Daniel Burka

My name is Daniel Burka. I'm a web designer living in San Francisco. Currently, I'm the director of design with a startup called Tiny Speck and for several years I was the creative director at Digg. I grew up in PEI, Canada, where I was one of the founders of silverorange. Aside from obsessing about interface design and css selectors, I'm a frequently-falling rock climber, a lazy cyclist, and an often out-of-bounds disc golfer.
