Yeah, I thought it was really great. My only complaints (and these are about the only ones) are 1) the music options on the left seem a little obscure. I clicked around a little bit near the word music before I actually recognized the bar above it. Music is a pet peeve of mine too since, at work, when Im supposed to be working, and I need to turn web music off, I need to do it quick. so if I don’t see anything right away in turning the music off, the site goes bye bye. And secondly, 2) it would be nice if you could disable the scrollbars that dont need to be there. It seems fallacious to have a scrolling bar (skull) that serves no purpose. An example is the 3D section in Work. Good job ---

I already saw your site a bit ago and voted for it on site of the week, sadly enough I found out you lost by one point. I think you deserved it and probably will when you submit it next. I love the whole ‘atmosphere’ of your site, pun intended lol. The into does take a while to zoom/fade in, but I like the unique feel through out the site. Great job on the imagery. The portfolio you have is very great. I also checked out your splash page and viewed the lighter portfolio version. I liked it a lot because it looks as if powered by XML, am I right? The first preloader seemed very long considering you preloaded each section seprately. Wish I could have found the option to stop the sound though. The contact section was very creative! Can’t wait to see your next client or personal project! I give your site 9/10, and that is high for me. :thumb: ---

Thanks guys :). senocular: Yea, the music options are kind of hidden, I’ll try to think of a way to make it more obvious because that can get annoying. The scrollbars would be pretty hard to disable in that section since its all dynamic…but I’m sure I can mess around with it and get something to work. Thanks bro :). telekineses: The portfolio is ran on a MySQL database and retrieved with PHP and a bunch of Actionscript (LoadVars). I think I need to learn XML soon though. It looks like powerful stuff. Thanks for the vote…I’ll resubmit soon. See ya later man. ---

Great site! I enjoy the eery feel and atmosphere. Excellent choice of music. First Dimmu Borgir, now Cradle of Filth. Try some Arcturus next, that would work great for the feel of your site too. ---

Dude, your site is hot. Complaints: -Skip intro. I couldn’t find it untill the intro was almost done. You should maybe put it at the top as opposed to the bottom. -music. this has been said before. To solve this problem I suggest just leaving the pannel open. It looks good that way. aside from that I think there are no problems. Again, your site is hot like a supermodel. ---

I had already seen the lighter version of your portfolio, but i gotta say: the “heavy” version looks increadibly amazing. Nice job man 🙂 ---

Nice site. I enjoyed the 3D portfolio. You might want to add just a little more detail on each portfolio piece (modeling method, etc.). I’ll be interested in seeing how some of the models like the soldier progress in the future. good luck with the site! ---

Thanks everyone, glad you guys are enjoying it 🙂 Coppertop - I like your idea with keeping the music options initially open. I think I might go with that.
