New personal site - Flash

jon · 12-22-2004, 02:12 PM

Hey guys,

This is my first attempt at making a flash website and I am quite pleased with the outcome.

http://www.jonwheatley.co.uk

There isn't a lot of content in there at the moment but that will build up over time. The HTML part of the site has been there a while now but feel free to comment on that also.

Thanks in advanced,
Jon

I like it, though not the scrollbars. They remind me too much of Windows, and don't go too well with the rest of your site. It's minimalistic, so should the scrollbars be.

Other than that, good going!

I like it a lot - very professional - and I like the eyes that follow the mouse around.

There are a couple of things I think might be worth changing:

1) the font size on the text might be too small for some people - especially if using a high resolution.

2) sending you a pm...

overall I think its excellent

Very well done, it is very unique. Although the site is great how it currently stands, it could you a little color, but maybe you were going for the black and white scheme.

Anyways, I like it. It is very slick and looks professional.

-transitions of the masks are slow, not to mention typical. Use a higher framerate or less frames.

-I wonder if you really preload...When i've clicked an item before, it says loading again...for the same amount of time

-You use the standard scrollers of mx2004...easy job, and there are way too many scrollers....I saw even two scrollers in one big scroll.

-overall layout is nice & clean, yet maybe to simple. Didn't like the red capitals.

-As it is your first flashthingy...still...nicely done.
