review my first and second flash sites

b2 productions · 05-12-2005, 11:23 PM

here's the first one:
brianbruemmer.com

and the second one:
b2 productions site

the first one was more of an experiment to get myself familiar with flash, no animation or anyting fance. the b2 productions site is a bit more ambitious for me skill set, took me about 9 hours to complete.

any suggestions or comments would be greatly appreciated.

well for your first two flash websites, pretty nice. well done.

i'll talk about the 2nd site -
some constructive critisism though:

firstly, i think that the times new roman font really should be changed. something like the classic verdana would be much simpler and cleaner.

the layout isnt bad, but i dont really like all the scrollbars everywhere. i think you would be much better off having your content either within one area, or on sepourate pages as with the previous site. it sounds like you have a lot to offer from you list of services. perhaps having a menu and a page for each service, describing what you do in detail would be better.

also, what is the image in the middle for? i cant see how it relates to your services or you site, and it dominates the page. perhaps repostioning that to a smaller section (like the links section) might be cool.

but off to a good start, good luck!

Hello,

First site :

- loos very good, nice graphics and fast loading. But you could use pixel fonts to improve the site's image.

Second site :
- doesn't load so fast as the first one.
- you need to work on improving the site's text - just like i said above - some pixel fonts would do the trick.

Dafont.net has some nice pixel fonts for you to use - free of course.

Cheers.

Look very basic and nothing extraordinary, but still nice

There both clean and simple.

this site is intended for possible clients, many of who are not very web savvy so i wanted as little clicking as possible thats why i chose to have all of it on one page with multiple scrollbars. the image in the middle will eventually be changed to a gallery of sorts with random images of our my work fading in and out of eachother. I'll keep you all informed as i update the sites more.

oh, and i'll be doing some experimenting with pixel fonts too.

Version 2 is much better than version 1.
