I am doing my site in flash- I have the layout, the about page, and the profile page up so far, and the decaff version still needs work, mainly, I am looking for suggestions on the ‘caffinated’ version of the site. ANY THING that you have to say- spare nothing. :cowboy:
I think this board is very helpful- thanks in advance.
ok, nothing bad to say about the site at all. i know it’s a work in progress, and let me say that the progress looks promising.
a couple things you might want to think about:
1- lose the pop-ups. decent hosting is very important - and worth the money!
2- possibly increase the size of the stage. the typical ‘low’ resolution is 800x600 with thousands of colors. 640x480 is not the standard anymore.
3- animate all the screens like the ‘about’ screen, or don’t animate any - consistency adds to usability.
4- spell check everything, spelling should never be an issue with a professional site.
hope that helps!
feel free to update us here on your progress.

Hi!, Thank you so much- the hosting it is on now is only temp- I plan to buy a domain name before it goes ‘live’ - I just have it a geocities to test it for right now. (waiting on payday :-))
As for the size, I will change that too, I thought that if it was bigger it would look bad.
Great ides about animating all the screens, I didnt even notice that until you said something- should I animate the first page too-like fade in the text, or make it appear like in the about page?
I usually do the spell check before I upload- I completely forgot this time opps - that is an important thing to remember.
Again, thank you sooo much for your comments, I am very grateful.
