    Comments/Suggestions:
    - Misspelled "Illustrator" in the intro.
    - For the buttons, instead of making the
    hit area the text itself, create an
    invisible rectangle behind the text for
    the hit area. Right now, it's really hard
    to accurately hit the links.
    - Speeding up the fps could help to smooth
    out the animations.

    Otherwise, good work!

    Yeah , actually you might notice a smoother flow in your site with an increase in the fps.

    the spinning logo is a very old effect, use swift3d and give the logo more depth. rite now it looks like a spinnig piece of paper.

    dull gray combo colors are good. the transition between each link should be faster.
    you could possible put a lill sound on the mouse over.

    the intro is a lill tooo plane at one part , when the " DRE Vision " comes onto the screen , you might want some elements at the bg . at a very low alfa. fill it up a bit more , like all the other parts in the intro. basically use more elements

    The scroll bar in the home page has a slight misalgnment.

    retrace you logo into vector, you can actually see the jagged edges on it .

    why is the top header an image , you should have made that also in flash ... it would reduce you file size.



    just a tip : each scene you introduce in your movie will increase your final movie by 1k .


    Well thats as detailed i could get , thre are other very small errors, but can be passed


    Take care dude !

    There's no apostrophe in "logos" (in the intro).

    Maybe if the animation of the intro could match the beat of the music you've
    used, it would flow a bit better.

    The Site:
    Good, except I'd make the portfolio images there at the start, instead
    of requiring mouse action to see them.

    But good design so far.

    DreVision is gray and small when the light thing goes over it and then all of a sudden is black and a bit larger. It's awkward.

    The text in the intro is jaggy, you should anti-alias it and choose a better font for it. Also, don't use different colors for different programs. It is confusing and looks bad.

    The intro just kind of ends and then there is this poorly textured object on my screen that opens up and images with jaggies come up and move around.

    The hit states on your buttons need to fill the button area, and not be just the text.

    The animations on the top are anoying and pointless.

    Sorry but I really don't see any direction in this site, it's like you made each element on its own without thinking of how they would fit together.
    It must be obvious day at camp stupid

    Thanks for your advise i'm taking it all in consideration.

    and to : sk8krog it best to view it on a 1152 x 864 or greater resolution than the basic 800 x 600 screen resolution

    the idea behind my design is using different tones of gray and trying to put a little bit different flava on each page in stead of the boring template design and the repeatition designs that i see on a lot of designers pages.

    Thank you for the replys keep em coming.

    I will make a all the necessary changes then re up load my site next monday.
