hey it looks good..one thing though, i find it hard to read..probably the fonts

LeeRyder · 01-08-2004, 03:31 PM

I dig the space ship thingy

Indeed.. the ONLY prob I see is the font(s) used.

I dont even like flash at all..but this works. Good colors (heh..I'm color blind) and layout

thanx!

I knew the fonts would be a problem. Although I've used pixelfonts and used the correct settings, they still don't appear as clear as i want them to. I can read them without a problem, but that's probably because I'm workin' with them for hours and hours.
I searched for a non pixelfont that is a lookalike but didn't find one. Anyone got a hint?

grtz

not bad. but for 800x600, i have to scroll horizontally...

shivl · 01-09-2004, 07:12 AM

I know, I feel sorry for them, but I did on purpose so I had more space to do my thing. The standard nowadays is 1024/768. For clients though I still respect the 800/600 users.

that's good to hear

keep up the good work

Great job. You did a perfect work of the interface and font design, though it does look a bit hard to read at 1600x1200! Your site is VERY clean and looks just as I want it. Great usability. Keep it up!!!!!!!

Hi excellent site yes i agree about thew fonts, also you may want to test your site more in different browser windows. I tested it in 800*600 and it was a little big, there is a way to make your flash movies fit to the browser windows, i will let you know very soon

best of luck

Welcome to NP/WDT

hi weewizard,

Problem will be the pixelfont. Gets very blurry when scaled. Waaah...fonts and flash

But you may let me know the scalingmethod. Never done it.

thx for the support!

Prehaps in your preloader you can have a checkbox "Play Sounds" that they can choose to have it play sounds or not...I for one HATE when a flash website starts playing sounds in the middle of "work"

shivl · 01-14-2004, 10:39 AM

Well, mediaspree,...I can understand yr point, but audio is one of my fields, don't think I'm gonna change that. Also, Iv'e counted that in, by intentionally not playing any songs or loops when entering the site. Visitors who are interested may visit the audio and videosection. Maybe if the site is loaded i'll put a button to toggle buttonsounds on and off...Most people however say me the sounds give an xtra to the animations.
So, you browse websites in the middle of yr "work"?

Interesting look. I think the sound for the mouseovers was a bit crackly though.
