The layout is okay but the site took like 3 minutes to load and I have cable internet. I’ll tell you honestly that after waiting 3 minutes I wasn’t very impressed. What’s the size of that file anyway? I like the robotic thing. ---

im with billmarr, layout is ok… but whats going on with the file size of the site? theres nothing on your site that should be that large, your wireframe animation is a loop and you have a image in the background, have you compressed this image in flash (made it a jpeg 70-80 percent in flash?) ? And i dont like the 3d image much, i think you are trying to create that white washed out look but to me its too white, there is no defined area it just all washed out. ---

ok kool that animation is nice at the start, i think you need to fix the image still 🙂 , maybe create a more original preloader , something to match your website, and then work on some content. ---

ok,I made a couple of changes on the image, now it´s more clear and u can see what´s going on in the picture 🙂 , but i don´t know why looks like pixelated on the edges, what do u think?? I know the preloader it´s crap, it´s just for the moment ---

thats better, maybe need more opacity drop off for the 2nd and 3rd pic. but better. preloaders sucks .yes. lol pixelation might be if you are resizing the image in flash or might be the way you are rending it out. (is the image pixelated before you put it in flash?) ---

not sure about the red background, unless you can make it blend with your site. image still pixelated, should be pixelated at all. :-/. What app you using to render? and what format are you saving to when you render out? ---

I´m still experimenting with colors, I´m rendering the image first with swift 3d, then I do the blur effects with photoshop and save it as JPEG, I don´t know what I´m doing wrong ---

The best thing about your site is clearly the opening animation when the animation ends however the image looks like its been exported in a very poor quality. I don’t think the layout suits the images you can do a lot better if your 3D work is anything to go by. ---

ok, I redesigned a little bit my layout, what do u think??? [here](http://www.freewebs.com/daniflash) Right now it´s 300 kb, but I just reduze it to 250 kb, I´m adding sounds later so final weight should be 300 ---

image is still pixelated dude? red background is uneven (bigger on the right side) If you want try to fade the red edges out to white if you are going to keep a white html background. layout needs alot of work. text is blurry, logo on the top left is not a prominent image, and gradient on top and bottom of the site gives it a cheap look. You know with a image like this , i think simple rectangular shapes and light grey/ silver/ and hints of red would work better… i throw something together for a example.
