It’s really good. It’s a nice concept and the illustrations are very well done. It’s put together well since you have some pages, that require it, fill the page (without disrupting the mainpage animation etc.). It makes me think of the band as fun people and from the gallery pictures it looks like they are so you’ve presented them well. My only thought is that some might want a skip button for the little intro though? Overall - Very nice work! ---

soudou - yes, you’ve got a valid point. it’s actually easy to make the navigation pop up in the very beginning. i’ve tried that before, but then the opening kinda looked like things were dashing in in a hurry… i thought that the rhythm is more logical as it is, more pleasing to the eye. well, as it’s one of the things i’ve been unsure of, i now may end up changing it as you suggested. so thanks for the thoughts and point taken! :thumb: hybrid101, cheers man - the preloader font is ‘Hockey Is Life’ (nice name, eh!), a free font from [URL=“[http://www.dafont.com](http://www.dafont.com)”][www.dafont.com](http://www.dafont.com) ---

What I meant was, for people who come to the site more than once and have already seen the intro, a little “Skip Intro” button that takes them to the final frame(s) of the intro in the Flash timeline might be handy. But it’s a very minor thing as the little intro isnt very long anyway, overall its a really great project. Congrats. ---

Great job, especially for a “hobby-flasher noob” such as yourself 😛 The navigation is the best, that looked very smooth, and it gave the site a more distinguished look. ---
