It loaded in 2 seconds for me ~ not a bad speed

The layout is really nice and the header/logo is really really awesome!

bhyraj · 06-12-2005, 10:47 PM

realy nice site. I like colour scheme very well.

WireNine · 06-12-2005, 11:43 PM

Thank you Petter, and bhyraj.

Rowan W · 06-12-2005, 11:47 PM

18 seconds from Australia on Cable.

Nice template

(I assume it's a template?)

stscac · 06-13-2005, 06:20 AM

took 96 seconds to load (of course i am on dialup internet, getting cable this week)

Nice design, did you design it yourself?

-Steve

Jon_ · 06-13-2005, 08:08 AM

Too about 2-4, it's a nice site!

GJ · 06-13-2005, 08:21 AM

The flash loads in about 6-8 seconds.

KPR · 06-13-2005, 08:59 AM

2-3 for me nice and fast.

Kupo? · 06-13-2005, 09:27 AM

5 seconds not including flash, I have all flash blocked.

WireNine · 06-13-2005, 09:34 AM

@Rowan, No it's not a template, thank you for your comments.

@Steve, thank you for comments, I am sorry it took so long to load for you, it is most likely because of the flash header.

@Jon, thank you!

@GJ Online, does the rest of the website load that slow aswell?

@KPR, thank you!!

@Kupo?, why do you have flash blocked?

Kupo? · 06-13-2005, 09:59 AM

Flash is good for a small number of things but 95% of people that use it don't use it correctly. Flash usually just adds unnecessary loading time and reduces functionality of websites. After installing FireFox I've had 0 pop-ups except for ones that pop out of Flash ads.

Your site looks nice and your flash banner/navbar doesn't really take anything away from your page but it doesn't add much either (except 315KB to the loading time). The same nav effect could be done (minus the animation) via DHTML at a fraction of the size.

I design/program using Flash almost everyday at work and it's awesome for certain things but as far as regular websites are concerned, I'll keep it blocked. And if I can't use the site because they use flash for navigation, I'll pass. I know I'm not alone. I'm sure there are people that could care less, and I'm sure there's some people that love it. Just my opinion. To each his own. YMMV. Etc.

Really nice flash template, did you do it yourself?

StudioWorks · 06-13-2005, 03:43 PM

The layout loaded fast for me.. the flash movie took a while tho.

I like your site. It has a nice feel to it.

Good luck,

Thank you, no... you can find the link to the designer's website in the footer of the website.

deadhippo · 06-13-2005, 08:14 PM

the colour scheme is good
overall very cool
took about10 second to load inJapan on a 15mb dsl connection

just me maybe but i think it would be better if the centre column didnt extend into the footer, but perhaps that the effect you wanted

if you have another particular worry please be more specific and then we can help you even more

axilant · 06-13-2005, 09:13 PM

0 seconds... lol i clicked the link and it was loaded

**labrocca** · 06-13-2005, 10:38 PM

Wow that's a really nice flash.

Now get rid of it.

The worst thing people do with flash is use it for navigation. Every time I change a page I have to watch the flash reload. That's horrible imho. It gets annoying very fast and sites that do this I just leave asap without another click. People make some really great animations with flash but for site navigation it's about as crappy as you can get.

Nice site otherwise.

Could you please post a screenshot of the center column extending into the footer along with your computer specification?

Just would like to see if it is a error

@axilant: Thank you, what type internet connection do you have?

@labrocca: Thank you for honest opinion, we are considering all suggestions regarding the flash being removed from our site.

def1 · 06-15-2005, 02:44 PM

its awesome only took 3 seconds awesome site how much was it?

Sabre · 06-15-2005, 02:54 PM

Approx 4/5 seconds

deadhippo · 06-15-2005, 06:44 PM

hey, this is what i mean
so i didnt know if its a mistake or a design choice

Bill · 06-15-2005, 06:59 PM

More than 8, im on a fast connection as well. The flash intro makes it slow down.

AnOmAlY · 06-15-2005, 07:05 PM

Nice site!
The flash part on top really nice and active.
No problem with high-speed connection
2-6 sec

A good design, in the mid average for the hosting services layout.

I noticed that the welcome text "Why Choose WireNine Hosting? " is overlapped by the box "all package come with"
so it is not possible to read the text at all.

Must be fixed.

Something to fix also in the bottom side of the page:
the central column seems to break the blue strip

the blue strip seems to be finished, there is a small green vertical strip and piece of an image in the left corner that seem have no sense....like you'have missed it there...

could be a 8 /10 after the fix.

Best of look.
