I like the premise of the site, the color and intro is cool, but any user will wave bye bye after clicking three times to get into the site. After your cool intro the site goes to another loading screen and another click. You really should consider streamlining that aspect of the site. Maybe load individual files as needed over a base file with your intro.
Keep it up

Are you insane?...
500k for a skippable intro...
Am I right in thinking that the intro is one giant animation, made in Swift or something similar... good god..

I have one word for you.................. loop.
it works like this... loop,loop,loop,left turn, loop,loop,right turn,loop,loop,loop etc...

Your intro could easily be about cut down to about 10%
that's just 50k...

There was no way that I was going to wait around for a 900k menu... even with broadband that is too much

As I am writing this Your movie load so...I mean this IS insane as said by previous mamber...don't know havn't seen site yet but try to cut down on the size this is NOT NORMAL...at tha max in my opinion what I would be willin to wait around is 180-200kb and thats already pushing it...
100-150 is normal in my opinion...but who knows maybe Your site is worth the loading time...geez still not loaded....

Later, got to get back to that preloader...

Twice is Too much...not gonna wait around to wait for the second time the intro was enough...
Do something abot that plz, cause I would actually like to see whats inside...

Later

All file size asside. I checked out the whole thing. The 3d work is awsome! the design work is great! I dont like the splash page graphic(too plain for a black background). Better than my first site.

I want to thank everybody for the reviews. I have got a lot to learn about the technical aspects of flash. I will hit the books and try and apply your guys suggestions.

Thanks,

i agree with everyones opinions on the flash aspect, but try this. find a code for a CENTERED pop-up window. i see a lot of people NOT putting a simple code in there HTML so the window is centered on launch. it looks good and the user will love it. thanks

Hi, I think the tunnel and the heart beat effects are cool,
in my opinion, you may want to start diectly after the loading,
and when it gets in, I thought there was nothing, 'cause the waiting time is a little bit long...
and at the last,
the resume fonts are little hard to read, 'cause that's all
upper case... I think that's all for now,

FLASH ROCKS~~
