I`ve personally never heard the term "parallax scrolling" used before, could you please post a little more information relating to parallax scrolling and what it is?
To me, some of it is cool and some of it is a little too much. Maybe more about the design itself rather than the content of the site. Although I won't fault anyone who just likes to watch things move around on the screen.
I've used to have a parallax scrolling portfolio, but not anymore... and I am thinking about going back to it as one page website, but I don't have time at the moment to complete my website.
