[gobhi]

Hey guys I am redoing my site and I need all the help I can get. The main focus is design. Can yall review it?
maybe a rating from 1 to 100?(100 being the best of the best). I want this site to be perfect.
You'll need the Flash 5 plug in.

First off, get rid of all the vertical text. People don't like to turn their heads sideways to read stuff on websites.

I like the look of it though, it's pretty cool. It's up to you, but I'd abandon the word "phat" anywhere it is used in your site. That word reminds me of rappers and common juvenile street lingo, attempts at coolness. It just does not make me take it seriously.

When is the navigation going to work? The buttons don't do anything. I'd also suggest centering the site in the window, or do it in a popup.
The graphics are kind of cool, I think expanding on what you are doing will end up building a cool site.

Okay, now, I get these ideas for things to change, and one thing I think of is this: when you have the words come up vertically (which I can't stand on any site) maybe have the words appear horizontally next to the squares that pop up.
then, the word moves up with the box-but make the box not go as high and as fast. then, when you move the mouse off, it drops slowly, fades out, word moves left, something like that.

Good Luck,

woa man ease up i was just asking for more comments!

[mg33]

nah, man, no need to ease up, I'm perfectly relaxed.
What I meant was, usually people will say, "Thanks for the tips" or "I never thought of that on my page."

Makes people feel like their suggestions and comments are understood.

The site is nice - like the animating buttons, but I agree with MG33 about the vertical text. Nice use of monochrome with yellow, and the 3d graphics look good too. That is...on Internet Explorer.

None of your buttons animate on Netscape, so you cannot see the titles. You may want to look into that. I just downloaded the Flash 5 plugin on my Netscape - works fine now...
