    Design Insites, Inc. is proud to announce the launch of its new Corporate Web site. Please make sure you are running the new FLASH 5 PLUG-IN (the new site will not run under the flash 4 plug-in), and then visit http://www.designinsites.com to experience our new corporate presence.

    The site interface features include:

    · A 40 second dynamic flash introduction
    · A fully customizable interface (with options for choosing various backgrounds and background ambience)
    · Dragable windows emulating the functionality of an OS
    · Downloadable Design Insites wallpapers (featuring the debut series "Migration")
    · 10 content sections which dynamically express the goals and services of the company
    · An experimental concept lab featuring the latest design methodologies, techniques and expressions of the Design Insites design team.

    The new Design Insites interface will be featured in the upcoming Flash 5 Bible (to be published in the next 2 months) to be accompanied by an expert tutorial on interface design and the Design Insites process.

    Thanks, enjoy the site and let us know what you think. Direct all comments to ejordan@designinsites.com

    that's some top-notch stuff I just saw.
    Good intro, good interface, and good overall design.
    Add that all together and you get good work.

    Post Eric,

    Your new site rocks. I've been a fan of 2advanced.com, and visit there frequently. I liked the new interface, I have one question though... do you or have you thought of designing interfaces in 3D software?

    A few good things:
    1. Very nice intro
    2. Very clean design
    3. Well planned layout


    A few bad things:

    1. Optimized for only one screen resolution (1024x768)
    2. The Bank Gothic font is difficult to read at such a
    small pt size.
    3. I noticed a few grammatical errors. The spelling
    of "possess" being one of them.

    Other than that, nice concepts, but it could stand to mimic the 2advanced site a bit less.

    considering the guy who made that site is the author of 2advanced site ( well, so says ejordans homepage is put down as 2advanced) i think he has every right to use his own style.

    That's true Steve; however, it makes it seem like Design Insites is Eric Jordan's Corporation, when that isn't the case.

    Since Eric Jordan is a stockholder and director in our corporation, I very much beg to differ regarding your comment. Design Insites is Eric's Corporation.

    Although I am not a designer or developer, I do understand the need to embrace and foster unique design from individual team members. I would assume that if Eric is the Director of Multimedia for Design Insites that much of what is produced by this company in the future will have his taste, feel, and unique perspective.

    Although he works with other designers, it seems that Eric is developing his skill and career to build a TEAM that produces work that rocks and not just unique pieces he alone creates.

    This is the vision...this is the way...to build a company that embraces individuality and fosters a challenging and creative team to deliver superior work.

    Just my thoughts,

    The program used is Photoshop. It is called a 'define pattern'. Basically, start with a new canvas that is 600 x 2 pixels. Then make a horizontal line that stretches across, and is 1 pixel high. Select all, and choose Edit/define pattern. Open up an image you want to apply this pattern to, it can be any photo or collage of images. Choose Edit/Fill, and select 'use pattern' from the drop down box. You can then modify the opacity and screen effect. Hope this helps.
