Hello everyone, I’m new to the forum and my friends call me EG. This is my first flash site so I’m still a n00b with flash. :trout: Here is my site, please critique it and tell me what you think, thanks. :geek: [www.electrongeek.net](http://www.electrongeek.net) ---

hi eg! welcome to the forums! anyhooo, its great for your first site, crisp, clean, and nice visuals. one small gripe i have though, is that if i click a link, then change my mind in between, i have to wait for the section to load completely before i can even highlight a new button. i’d suggest adding some sort of functionality that can allow for user indecisiveness. oh - eg, one more thing, since you’re new, i’d suggest reading up on the frequently asked questions here: [http://www.kirupaforum.com/forums/misc.php?s=&action=faq](http://www.kirupaforum.com/forums/misc.php?s=&action=faq) :P:P ---

hahha thanks for the suggestion, orginally I had it so that the buttons were active all the time, but then it looked wierd clicking it and watching the panels jump back and forth so I added the disable function. ---

sexcellent, it’s not a big deal; in fact i didn’t even notice until i purposefully tested it. i think your content is captivating enough for the user to want to see what loads without clicking another button in succession. 🙂 ---

wish i could start as a n00b with 4k posts :trout: wow impressive… as usual… The one thing i dont like is your f (flash) logo at your splash page - just doesnt look like its a the right place and your sound loops get boring after a while… oh and, whats the use of the center screen ? (blue thingy with/ logo )? ---

Yes the sound loops do get boring after awhile, good thing I added the stop button for the sounds. 😛 Oh and the center screen is for my logo. ---
