Make a button to turn the sound off!!! I was listening to music and had to close the site. The design is nice, though 🙂

nice, _drolls_ bentley lim-zeeeee

hold on i hafta say this,  
the rims are photoshoped 😃 i mean every one in each pic are the same rotation and doesnt seem to be effected by surrounding light, what id do is use dodge / burn and try to pixel in some depth, but other than that its a nice really start, flashwize only thing i suggest is making ‘menu’ text lil less bold, considering the logo at the bottom has a more thinner elegant theme… only ma thoughts

This seems much better then the old one. Some of the BG pics seem a little pixelated though.

lol omg. i knew all you people would see the rims. lol. well its a temporay solution for now. we are getting the rims acually today. so when we go out to take the pictures again the rims will be real. lol.

about the text. fff acess looks like that. its not on bold. someone else told me it looked to short and wide.

about the pictures. the original size of the pictures we took is 2560 x 1920. all i did was change the image size with fireworks. i really don’t know how to make it unpixled. i’ll try blurring it to see if it helps.

thanks for your coments so far. anymore??

Looks decent. It’s nice and basic. I like the layout and style that your going for with it. Maybe do a little something more with the transitions than just a simple wipe. I’d also lower the volume on the opening make it a little shorter. I think it takes too long to fade. Other than that it looks good. =]

Crop or scale down or what ever u need to get the pic the size u need. If u are changing the dimensions in flash the pic will still technicaly be the same size. Scaleing or croping in PS will make the pic look smoother and re duce the fiel size a bit.

Ah a bussiness site. Its nice, simple, and (best of all) EASY TO USE!

Well, I would suggest posting some prices upfront in the prices section. You are missing a lot of content in the rest of your site. Aside from that its \*\*\*\* near perfect

Nice looking web site - I really like it for a business… just one suggestion though.

On the RATES section, I’d move the box down to the bottom right because I think the text might be easier to read with the solid color of the asphalt

Other than that, it’s a good lookin site man - nice work
