It’s a possibility. It’s just that pixel fonts don’t look good stretched. Know what I mean?
Yeah I understand. Its just i want that text to stand out a bit more because its like the main content text. I’ll try using bold or italics.
Ok I redid the whole content area. All the fonts were optimized and overall improvements were made. Tell me what you think.
thanks,

The blurb beneath the “welcome to…” is difficult to read because of the stripes behind it. I like the motion when it first opens, really eye catching. The diagonal stripes theme is well concieved, but it does hurt readability with some of the pixel fonts. All in all I really like the direction of this layout. Clean is good.
I’m going to lower the opacity of the stripes. Its at 50% now i’ll try 25%. Thanks for the comments.
I made some good updates. I added a bunch more animation to the buttons. I added some non intrusive click sounds for buttons and for the loading. Also now all images are inside the swf and they are not loaded dynamically. The dynamic loading was creating issues and i just felt this was the way to go.
wheres that song from? i love it!
Gladiator Sountrack - Now We Are Free
Spirit - Run Free
Lion King - This Land
The Last Samurai - Spectres in the Fog
They are all great songs by Hans Zimmer. Is anyone on IE experiencing problems with the music. I cannot get it to play on IE.
i have IE, works fine!!
I have no clue why IE on my computer is acting so weird. The music was working i just refreshed and bam it stops working.
odd, maybe you should download the latest updates for IE…
Just tried updating. Didn’t help. Maybe a restart.
CUBS RULE!
- I made the titles look a bit better. Used 1 color for all of them and made them look alike.
- Got rid of that fps bug. Now the whole thing runs perfect.
- I put in 3 different fonts. If you could tell me which one you like better.
- I made the volume of the music 50% as that was a major concern at a couple design forums.
Just added new titles. I’m getting mixed feedback so what does the kirupa forum think.
Dude i may need more skill but my site isn’t as bad as http://www.aroundaway.com/
I mean i’ve got colors that are easy on the eyes. Good clean fonts. That site is just an overdo of 3d.
All that matters is how you feel about it. Im just offering my $0.02.
If your offering design services, you want your site to reflect “great design.”
That’ll get ya clients. But if you get work with what you’ve got, good.
Like I said, its all in how well you feel about it.:thumb: And I was in no way trying to compare your site with the other one.
You know how in resume workshops, the first thing they always mention is to not have any typos on your resume? I would think the same thing would apply to a website like this because in both cases you’re marketing yourself. It looks like you’re in need of a proofreader…
‘prescense’ - typo, extra c
’pleasibility’ - not a word
’inturn’ - not a word, separate it
’tommorow’ - correct spelling is tomorrow
’there’ in last sentence of 2nd paragraph - should be their
’ideaology’ - correct spelling is ideology
I’ll assume that you know how to spell (or at least how to run this through a spellchecker), so having this many typos in a mere three paragraphs, let alone any when you’re trying to market yourself, implies that you have no attention to detail and/or rush things. This is something you might miss but I definitely noticed it right away.
too much blue…take a look at other sites, and see there colour schemes…your site would really benefit from better colours!
Some other things:
Good job on the ‘news’ and ‘featured project’ headers, their animations are pretty cool.
When you fade out everything when switching to another section, you should have the text shrink down as well as the white box. Also it’s minor but when the text first comes in, it shows over that bottom image. You should have the image on a higher layer so the text doesn’t go over it like that. This is rather hard to notice anyway 
Hopefully my nitpicking is helping
