I am making a complete redesign of my photo website

I would like some feedback to see if looks okay on different resolutions, browsers etc. before I apply the theme to the entire site

Its made so that smaller resolutions will have to open in fullscreen, while larger resolutions it should fit okay in the normal browser window.

For now you need a minimum resolution height of 800 otherwise it will cut of some content. Will fix this shortly

Appreciate your help 🙂

You really need to fix the way the photos are loaded, I’m on a speedy connection and it took ages to load at the beginning, I’m sure some people would have turned off before it loads. It would be best to load in each individual photo as you get to it.

I have chosen this method because I want people to load the whole thing at once, and not interrupt their viewing experience. I been thinking about it for a long time, and still im not sure, got both positive and negative feedback on this

I never wait more than ~15 seconds for anything up front. Don’t care if they won 25 FWA’s, if they can’t manage their loading structure they suck. 🙂

maybe try loading the 5/6 first images and then load the rest in the background.  
Also, it might be an idea to “wrap” the images, when you get to the end of the slideshow, and click on the “next” button it should take you back to the first image

#5 I like that idea of loading some of the site to begin with. Does anyone have a link to a tutorial on how to do this, I am a little weak with actionscript 🙂

wow it takes a long time to load. Is everything being loaded through xml? Other than load time it looks great maybe you can add transitions or animation.

just use the same loading system you are using now, but mayebe break it up into two parts.  
for example, load the 4/5 first images and display the loading like your doing there for all the images, and once the 4/5 images have loaded, start the site, and in the back ground load the rest of the images, without displaying the load progress, or maybe show the load progress, but dont disable user input 🙂

I’m not a fan of the full screen thing. Might want to make two links. One to open in the same window. Another thing is that it forces the user to flip through them in order. Maybe add a thumbnail viewer? Needs something. Right now there’s very little reason why this is in flash except maybe for the dynamic loading.

Looks good at 1440x900. Nice pictures.

I could be wrong, but I think the current ‘loading system’ is a whole bunch of keyframes. 😛

I refuse to click things that load full screen now ☹
