when i click on the link, it says it is loading  
and finally when it loads and when i click on enter,  
again it says loading…  
your visitors may not wait to long time to see your content  
and your main page has no content,  
so this is a disadvantage with search engines.

i think the site is ok, the thing i dont like is that transition with the white circles, its a good idea but as it is now it clashes on the eyes as the others said, try to change it like increasing the framerate to make it smoother or whatever, or may be make another one

cheers

this site doesn’t need flash at all, not at all

the first pic that loads in the intro is great cause it looks like the guy in red is grabbing the guy in blues balls. I’m a wrestling fan so I know thats not what he’s doing but to the casual observer thats what it looks like)

I realise it’s an irish wrestling site but I don’t see why the site has to be green. I don’t think the site has to be so green, maybe a different shade of green but there is 2 other colours in the flag, I’d use white a lot more.

The preloader doesn’t tell me how much more loading it has to make (70%) kinda thing. It also makes me feel ill. It has to go.

Once the site has loaded it is a bit much to ask people to wait again…and on what, I mean it’s not very animated

also there are no reasons for this to be in flash, none at all.  
No videos, no animations, no music outside the intro which again if you don’t use flash you don’t need an intro, no clever navigation…this site is a screaming advert why not to use flash…

if your friend :sure: was just trying to gain more experience and confidence with flash then I don’t think they’ve pushed themselves enough

using HTML and CSS can create some great sites, try the link below

my advice, redo this site in HTML/CSS and use more white
