After about 4 months of planning, production, and coordination, we finally pushed the new RIT homepage live this morning at about 8 AM. It has some small bugs still, and one of our flash designers re-compressed the already compressed flash images, but… it’s pretty sleek now! > **[Rochester Institute of Technology (RIT)](http://www.rit.edu/)** > > Founded in 1829, Rochester Institute of Technology is a privately endowed, coeducational university with nine colleges emphasizing career education and experiential learning. The campus occupies 1,300 acres in suburban Rochester, the third-largest... While I played a big role in the entire site, the “Interactive Media / Photo Spotlight” component in the lower right, and the “Follow Us” button and subsequent page were my visions / projects :tup: Feedback welcome, as well as any bugs that you find. The known ones so far are the flash loader freezing up at 45% randomly, as well as the flash carousel inversing the images even more randomly. –mark ---

Very nice - I like update - I haven’t test it on every web browser but it seems like the images when clicking through doesn’t require much resources, which is a good thing 😉 ---

Very cool. Kinda reminds me of one of the iTunes builds with the clickable pages. Nice job! ---

Cool. 🙂 > [@neonglh](#): > > You guys aren’t looking hard enough then! True. I didn’t have to look hard when I was there. Someone show these guys where the art building is. That’s not the only place to find them, but there’s a higher concentration there. ---
