Great job! Love the design. You may consider to preload the first x designs in the html directly, its better for the seo. What about fixing deeplink urls when people click your menu? Just use a hash. Will take a look.at your Js tomorrow, got to sleep now.
Big chance you won't get that error if you retry it after 10 minutes (time needed for Amazon Cloudfront to push the new version to all the edge locations).
My motivation is coming from previous mashups I did in the same style. http://Scrolldit.com which was featured on TechCrunch (http://techcrunch.com/2011/10/25/scrolldit-i-heard-you-liked...) and another mashup I did http://www.ScrollFriends.com (Facebook Scroller, no viral)
However Scrolldit is (most of the time) a pure timewaster, check this: 377.913 (unique visits) x 1.20 (avg minutes on the site) = 453495,6 minutes = an impact of 314,93 wasted days on our world economy.
However with all those minutes wasted I felt the need to do something productive, I think Scrollsy.com is a good try. Supporting all those small shopkeepers, trying to give them more exposure.
Good idea to do the blog post, it's on the list!
After they were resolved I posted it.
Trick: Click the about link in the top left box and flag the disable animation checkbox.
Do you have any examples of those fashion sites?
Some examples you should check:

I can't really remove content from the DOM since that would cause other boxes to float back to the top (moving chaos in your window). Maybe replacing the images not in focus with a 1x1 pixel stretched to their size is a fix to decrease memory usage (although I think this will differ between browsers). Anyone here with a good idea how to fix this?
