I like it a lot more now, I might sugest a darker background, but that’s just me… I like dark things 🙂

Keep it up!

whats the point of the preloader for the videos? for some reason, it looks a lot like one i made and posted in this forum =). Also you need a hitbox for the buttons. Having to go over the text is a hassle for users. Also I dont think you have the right to put that sound file on your site.

well the preloader is something that I made from scratch but its broken right now because Im trying to recode it differently. Sorry if it looks like something you might have made but I assure you that I didnt take it from anyone. and I have fixed the text buttons but Im still having issues with getting the main intro window to close when you click on one of the buttons…

thanks b3n

I still think its missing something… maybe some kind of animation the would be halfway transparent over the carpic that maybe moves to the beat of the music? Ill have to try it out tommorow and see how it looks…

thanks for the compliment.

um, looks good. but when you enter the site, the intro music doesn’t stop… so it has 2 soundtracks going at once 🙂

\<---- Didn’t read any of the other crits so please forgive me if I repeat anything. (I usually don’t though)

The orange text is hard to read on the background. I had to squint to read it. Plus the test went off screen to fast conisdering I couldn’t read it fast enough because of bad color choice. Black would be suitable in this little intro.

A pep-pieve of mine is splash pages and intros that have sound and then the site has sound to but the splash/intro page has a \_blank link to the site and the site has totally different music. A no no imo. Have a \_self or \_parent link. This way you don’t have to exit of the splash page seperatly so you can here only one sound going on at one time.

Well there is my 2cents. Hope it helps.
