    This site has been compiled to be fairly small and compact abd be able to hold alot of content and expand a great deal with out increasing the SWF size

    http://www.tranceunderground.cjb.net

    tell me what you think

    this site could have been done in html and in my opinion should have been because for a flash site it has very little to offer in the flash area. I am assuming that this is a like a underground music site and if it is I think some music would be in order don't you ? I know you have real audio but I am talking about background music.I also noticed you were going for small file size and so I do understand you not having a huge intro and animations everywhere but just a small bit would not hurt. Anyway I am not trying to trash your site because I am not about that at all but I am suggesting that you pump up the "flash" volume just a bit.
    Good luck on this and any other future projects.

    of course it COULD have been done in html, but why should it?
    flash is more comfortable to build sites, even if NOTHING is moving...
    thats it

    I never said it was cool :-) I said it was clean

    I personally hate music on flash sites!
    it's all good for a bit but then it gets repetative and dam I just want to close the site

    flash is much more comfortable to use then html either way you look at it
    you can't possition things as easy and stuff

    yes I know none of you people will like this site
    but what can I do
    I didn't make it for flare
    I made it for content

    I had a flare version of this site but I scrapped it all becuase flare is not nessisarily very easy to update!
    I just don't like doing html
    it is boring
    so I did it in flash

    and it was my intention to add flare to this site when I had it up and running
    I just don't need that right now
    I am working on hits

    getting 100 hits a day so ya know

    Hey if it suits your purposes. I think it's a clean site, does what it is supposed to do, and it's attractive. It's not going to rock anybody boat or shiver their timbers, but what the hey. We can't all afford 20 different programs. And if your more comfortable in Flash--stay there.

    Acid, don't get bent out of shape because some people didn't like your site. Personally, I agree with the idea that it's a well organized and extremely efficient site. I would *like* to see more Flashy effects in it, but if that's not what you're going for, fine. But you have to realize that in the "Cool Sites" forum, people are here looking for impressive use of Flash effects and animation. Your site is very well organized and very impressive, but not what we're really impressed by as far as Flash goes.
