Looks really good. Nice balance and use of colors.

TWM · 02-03-2004, 04:52 PM

very very nice and impressive, but take in mind 56k users... i am not one, but i sure feel sorry for the ones who are

Deathdart · 02-04-2004, 12:02 AM

Nice work

Tjobbe · 02-04-2004, 01:53 AM

good job, added to favourites ;o)

InteractAsia · 02-04-2004, 05:38 AM

cool nice site you got there...

Anthony · 02-06-2004, 03:13 PM

Wonderful look and easy to use!

NUFD · 02-18-2004, 09:45 PM

smooth

danceparty · 02-19-2004, 01:13 PM

tight, but i recomend using more action script

jaybirch · 02-19-2004, 01:21 PM

well what do you recommend me do with the AS? its a bit vague to just say 'use more actionscript'.

spike · 02-22-2004, 02:44 AM

i think that if you can hack the loading times (which arn't THAT bad for 56k users) then the reward is worth it. REALLY tight work... perhaps the text is verging on a little too small for 1024 x 768.....

aww · 02-22-2004, 05:35 AM

Strange, all I see is a blank page.
Oh it's flash with no backup html.

Did you know 20-30% of visitors don't allow flash because of the abusive way it is used for ads? Rule #1, if you are going to do a flash site, do an HTML fallback (also good for Google indexing).

Once I enabled Flash I can see you did a very nice job.

jaybirch · 02-22-2004, 05:40 AM

Bro, I am a flash/after effects designer, thats all I ever get asked to do. Whats the point in having a html version of my site that links to a bunch of flash sites.

Cheers for the comments though.

chaosbox · 02-22-2004, 07:17 PM

not a bad site at all...the only thing i would recommend is to do it completely in html ...none of that stuff is too complicated for layers in timelines and then you could solve everyone's issues with the site...fast for 56k's...resizing text for people with high res(which i looked at it at1280x1024 and the text was fine) and still a VERY professional design..good site bud!

jaybirch · 02-23-2004, 04:51 AM

how do you suggest i put a looped video background, sound fx and animation into html? These are the 3 elements that my clients loved about the site.

chaosbox · 02-23-2004, 06:31 PM

the video background good be looped and the animation could be copied...it would take a while but could be done...the sound is a different story...didnt notice that(no sound card at work)

) but overall site design rox like i said, great color

jaybirch · 02-23-2004, 06:35 PM

mate, there is no way you could do looped video as a html background, just no way. And i'm no master of dhtml but i'm sure that sort of animation aint possible. Not tryin to start a war or anything, but i'm sure its impossible to recreate in html. Thanks for the comps

chaosbox · 02-23-2004, 07:11 PM

ok...a layer in a timeline with an animated gif of the background could be created and the layer moves ever so slightly around the back would be the perfect way to create that background...and because its about 60% quality of the actual image it would be a pretty small gif file and the menu's coming down from the top could be created easier with layers and run smoother on slower systems and because its html code it would load almost instantly ...id like to think im a master of layers but im just a mediocre dreamweaver mx user...but i guarantee you i could do that animated background in html ... definitely don't wanna start a war because it's obivous you have some major skills! but i gotta throw my 2 cents in : o )
