I really like your style

. But the actual site seems a little plain and the loading screen should be redesigned.

yeah, preferably i would have liked one of those bar loaders for the front screen........but i couldn't find a script... has anyone got one?

Thanks for you crit btw, the site will grow more complex as i clock up more content!

Everyone loves clouds, but not clouds that don't load!

LOL! ok...so were i to slice up the images and post them all together it would load faster right? and that would make the need for a loading screen redundant (i didnt really want one in the first place, but thought it would take AGES otherwise)?

so rather than a 1024x768 image, ive got lots of small 200x200 ish ones or something? is that what you mean, because i didnt know slicing made it faster?

thanks guys, really appreciate your comments.
