First off, you need a preloader since you’ve decided to embed an entire song into your movie. I was sitting there staring at the Tripod ad banner for atleast 7 sec before the enter thing showed up and I’m on DSL too.

Next, you could use a lil more color to your iface or your overall layout. No offense, but it just looks a lil plain. Simplicity is good, but your page looks like it was just thrown together real quick. I’m kinda new to flash so I know how it is when you’re excited about finishing a project, but take your time and pay more attention to detail.

I hope I didn’t offend you in anyway cause that wasn’t my intention, I just wanted to point some things out that I noticed and hopefully it would help you with your design. =)

Naw dude, its called constructive criticism…really what most of us here are looking for. thanks for the comments, and yeah im planning on getting rid of that song, but i cant really seem to find anything since im not into the little techno loops or anything, but i’ll keep working, thnx

I have some critic too.

Yeah there should be a preloader, etc…

But there’s not a lot of information on your site. I would place a lot more of information on it.

And make the link to your e-mail adres clickable

Hope I havend offended you either.

I’ll be honest (not that I’d be anything else)… I think it is terrible. But what really seems weird is that if youve created those grafx that flash at the beginning it looks like you dont have a bad eye for design. Like electrongeek said, it looks like you put this together on your lunch break. Judging by those pics I am sure you could do WAY better - my best advice is to make a plan before you even start, get an idea, develop it, expand it, draw it out, THEN make it happen.

Sorry if I sound harsh, but I dont like beating around the bush, and I would expect the same advice from fellow designers. Work at it and post again, I bet it’ll be good.

Peace
