Its my first site that has been finished this far. Please give your honest review-good/bad.
I like the design very much, it really looks good. I don't like the animation in the background (the spinning logo)... think it should be static. And the black preload??? eh...
Nice job!!
-D
There's some parts I like and there's some parts I disagree with.
I'll start with what I like I suppose. You're color selection isn't bad. It's not offending nor boring.
I disagree with dumajo. I think its just personal preference about the spinning logo. It doesn't affect the text in front of it, so there's no really harm done.
Moving on to the parts I find in question...
I'm curious to see the design layout for the news section. It seems like you constricted yourself to a 100 x 600 pixel sized area. I'm wondering where the all the content will go.
I have the same questioning about your portfolio. What happens whne you have more than 8 photos?
Add a border or shadow to your main block. Its just floating in the middle of the page. Separate it from the rest of the whiteness.
Good luck.
The size of the site does constrict, it also forces you to show the photos via pop-ups, most folks do not like pop-ups. The light writing on the metallic green background is hard to read. I do like the design, just it the whole thing is a bit too small
You guys got great points there. If the size of the movie wasn't so compressed, I wouldn't have made the photos into a pop up. Any alternatives you would suggest? The text I can change easily. The background animation I have thought about changing to a static photo with minimal animations on it.
I'm not sure if people don't like pop ups that doesn't have advertising on it. But they might have popup blockers that kills the java script :(
I like how you feel the site is a bit too small, its what I was kind of aiming for. Small site.
Nice Work you've done.

that site almost looks like it was made with director the way things are laied out...... but i like the whole design, never seen anything like that before.... keep it up
sharp design...very nice work.
But the "get flash" button takes you to the "shockwave" update page...Shockwave and Flash are
two different plugins (albeit produced by the same company).
I believe the URL you're after is this one:
http://www.macromedia.com/shockwave/download/download.cgi?P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFlash&Lang=E nglish&P5_Language=English
I Like the site, Don't know about the yellowish green middle section that comes up, but hey, it's still nice.
I want to know how you have pictures of dinosaurs?? :)
I was more empressed when i saw that you were born in 1988 and I thought wow you are young...
actually it's me that old now, no wait, no its you being young...
keep up the good work, I don't think i could draw at that age.
Bad font selection.
Use dynamic popups or a good way to display your photos. Maybe a new layout with a picture placeholder, because your photography is very nice. Also, if you have your pictures in flash, you can load them dynamically and actually prevent users from right-clicking and saving them. (but your way prevents from print-screening)
The first time I've ever seen photoshop drop shadows work. At least on your red border.
The yellow in the middle doesn't fit. It is bad for layout, you can't present yourself the way you need to, it prevents you from having a good gallery.
btw, I like the non-static background I've decided.
A Few of points.
• Good work overall
• Don't be afraid to give yourself more room to work with
• Your text is hard to read. I think that has been pointed out but it is the biggest problem.
• That is one GIANT copywright symbol. It looks as if you are useing it as a secondary logo for your business
• After the first screen the Urban Art Studio logotype only makes short appearances. you might make it a bit more prominant.
Good Job
lmfao, thats exactly what I thoughtQuote:
