opinions please........if you have any suggestions on how to make it better or any tips please send those too...
thanx in advanced....
hey, ill take 100 bucks :)
well first of all, it takes really, really, ridiculously long to load on cable. im mean reaaaaaally long. u get my point.
the transitions are kinda glitchy, when they almost reach the top they go back down a notch and then up. maybe also consider two way transitions, one for entering a page and one for leaving.
the nav thing is getting very cliched by now. very. ive seen a hundred thousands sites with the "moving box nav"
the logo in the top corner looks a little fuzzy.
theres not too much content. the whole things kinda bland, but its well done and a good start
Hey, I like the site and it loads quickly for me. The only suggestion I have is to spice up the navigation a little. Otherwise nice work. If you need any help contact me, cya!
I think its needs a bacground, something to give depth . The BG color doesnt work for me. Also the pics are 'exciting'(for lack of a better word) but the rest is not very .
loads lighting fast for me. overall i think its some good work.

about the 100 bucks ill call it even if you check my site out, its listed in the forum.
Very nice clean simple site. I liked the background image transitions.
One suggestion is to have your logo in the upper right hand corner link back to the homepage, just a thought.
lol, i knew that $100 line would generate some feedback :)
gmh526 - first of all, the load time, takes too long??? on cable????? the file of the movie is only like 27kb and maybe a little more for the other movie clips/images. your transition suggestions to have it come in one way and out another is how i WANTED to do it but couldnt figure out the actionscript to do it (the website is based on movie clips loading into one main movie clip...its not all in one flash file). thanks for the critique.
NuclearOrbit03 - i agree with you on the navigation, i did this over the weekend and once i got one or two compliments i was scared to put more design into it :( but i could use a little help on some actionscript things so i'll email you, thanx!
treehugger - like i said before, i orginally wanted to have the backgrounds transition over one another when going to another link but couldnt figure out how to do it...i guess maybe have everything in the same flash file rather than loading external swf's??? thanx for your comments, i'm going to checkl out your site ( since i dont have 100 bucks :cool: )
how could i have forgotten that??? lol, thanx for the reminder.Quote:

Just a quickie for ya, turn your emails into buttons with a geturl function (mailto:me@here.com) that way people don't need to remember the address open up their email prog and type the address....
(Nice site though simple and clean I agree that the blue html background could change though)
Please check my new game and site at

thanks. :)
longerlife.......thanx for the input.
i liked your game once i figured it out!!!! it was confusing at first, were there directions on how to play or did i skip over it or something?????
Loaded v.quick and i'm on a 56k.
I think the site is nice and you can write copy well - I understood exactly what you did in just a few lines.
Just one thing, the logo looks more like a D than a J. It's nice just might need amending.
thanks alistar, and copywriting is a part of my dayjob (public relations). i'm trying to tweak up that logo...i orginally wanted to give it a 3d effect but everytime i look at my swift 3d program i just get lost, lol.
Presentation: 8/10 - I love it when it's simple!
Animation: 6/10 - You lack here. Needs more, not just a rectangle object tweened between flashes.
Patience: 8/10 - Simple, loads quickly, just it needs more. You have only a few links.
Overall: 6.9/10 - Not bad, just needs to be deeper.
J-luv, any chance I could have the code for your menu or point me to a tut that has the same effect??
I understand if you don't want me to rip it off thought i'd ask though!!
Yo, KigD quit with the marks (0/10) We're not in school.Dunno about anyone else but I find it quite patronising....
you are talking about a movieclip that moves to a specific position when the mouse gets over a button? i'm at work right now and my open source file is at home, but i think it went something like this:Quote:

This one will move at constant speed ---
mouseover action:
mover.wantx = 100; // where should it go
mover.step = -5; // number of pixels to move each frame time
mover's enterframe handler
this._x += this.step;
if((this.step < 0 && this._x <= this.wantx) || (this.step > 0 && this._x >= this.wantx))
{ this.step = 0;
this._x = this.wantx;
}
The code bsically works the same in F5 and F6, but you can write it differently.
The funny comparison is used to avoid overshoot - say the total distance does not divide evenly with the step size, an == test might just miss the spot and go on. There are many ways to add easing into the script, once the linear motion works
Let me know if it works out for you....
Thanks for the code
Man, I'm lost..... I am pretty new to AS and I am really lost.
I thought I would use and adapt your technique of rollovers to my own menu (which is vertical) but I am miffed.
If your willing to help i'll send you the .fla and explain more. If not then cool!!
Take it EZ

Listen, Alistar, i'm sorry if you don't like me doing it but i think it's a good way to let people know what i think they should work on. If you don't like it then don't read it!
