Hello all,
I’m basically just fishing for compliments because I really like this snappy little thing I did for some friends. 😛
Seriously though what do you all think. Nit pick. :wink
How’s loading time?
Thanks Voets for the awesome mp3 player!

What? Are you on dial up? It’s not a streaming mp3 player so it can take a while.
If you can’t work it then start pming voets like a madman spammer.

4. Voets - doesn’t like the way I’ve faded the site into the background
5. Flash Gordon - doesn’t like the deep emboss on the title
6. vacancy
7. vacancy
8. vacancy
9. vacancy
10. vacancy
11. vacancy
12, vacancy
12. vacancy
13. vacancy

i have a problem with how suddenly the bottom ends… it’s like white|black… and it should be white | black
other than that, it’s a solid site 🙂 the grunge/brushes are very cool

I was like, argh, my player is crap when I saw the player didn’t stream and I couldn’t press play, but it was the nonstreaming version 😃
Nice mod by the way ! :thumb:

Thanks voets. Where is the streaming version of the player? Is there one for regular MX?
Also, what about the rest of the site? 🐇
\< jabbering \> I wonder what I’ll think of that design a month from now? \< jabbering \>

I wanted to make one for MX, but MX 2004 screws up in converting, and after a long time of working on the player I was too lazy to recreate it in MX.
I like the fading of the images. I have a feeling that it would look nice to have the site fade to the black background instead of a straight corner. The grunge is cool too, but I didn’t find any other sections ?

I see. I guess I neee to update my software.
Yea no other sections. They have nothing to say I guess. lol
I faded the sides Voets. I think it does look a little better.

Yep, but try fading it over more space. You know, not say 40px in width but 140px in width.

I like it alot CG. THeir music is great too. Die For You kicks \*\*\*! I like the mod of Voets mp3 player but it doesn’t really suit the style of the site imo. Try grungin’ it up a little. Other than that the only other thing I’m not keen on is the massive inset emboss on the title. Other than that it’s great. Nice one.

lol. Yea that’s exactly what I wanted to do that but I cropped the \*\*\*\* thing when I sliced it and I forgot to save a the bigger version. I’ll fix it some day.
Flash thanks bud. Yea I know the player doesn’t fit the style I’m just being lazy. As for the emboss, I’m surprised to hear you don’t like it. I’ll muck around with that _cough_ someday _cough_ lol

It’s pretty nice, but there’s one huge issue with it. On all your images, the backgrounds that are black aren’t actually black, they’re dark gray. So you can see all the boxes and everything on it. I don’t know if it’s just my monitor, but it really shouldn’t be because I just bought this computer 2 weeks ago, so everything is up to date here. Might want to check that out. 🙂
