Hey.

I'm working on this new site for a limo company.
So far, this is just the FRONT PAGE and BASIC FORMAT.

http://www.geocities.com/pooberry00/intro.html

Comment on design, nav, or anything else

nice transitional effects, could make the BG a bit darker, and add some sounds like drums and the like, something Jazzy always gives the Idea of a limo, dunno why but I think Hollywood is to be blamed here

and the grey of the button's Over status is a bit dull

and the page needs to be centered, I'm on 800*600 and I had to scroll to get the page in the center

Hope that helped

nice transitions- the grey on the rollover looks not as nice as teh rest of the site, need to do wsomething with that, maybe try a gradint similar to how it is when its blue, have slightly darker grey at the bottom and fade it up.

Any more comments?

Frame rate needs upped, and a domain name with hosting should be purchased. Geocities = bad.

Yea, i just put it on geocities temporarily to show the file to the client......about the faster frame rate..if i increase it, is there some special html i need tp put in because often my ie still plays it at the default (12fps) rate...

Never heard of that before - IE doesn't control the frame rate. That's controlled in the SWF...

i agree with the previous posts, the bg - maybe add some flickering lights in the buildings, very sutle though to add some animation to the page and the cars and the cityscape kinda blend in together , maybe make the cars brighter or change hue of the sky. as for the rollovers, yeah a bit overkill, maybe add the same yellow that you use in the about header?? and i agree with ultima, any browser that you use, it doesnt control the frame rate, if it did, we all would be screwed

I don't get any transitions.

i dont get any tranistions either but if its only the beginning... than i think it will turn out good (layout point of view- which is the most importatn)!

Check your export settings in flash you might be exporting at 12fps. Make sure its set to export the movie settings not the default settings....then again I dont think that is even an option, but it sounded like I knew what I was talking about....

[ballers_101]

Yeah, i think u should augment ur fps so that the beginning is a little smoother.. Just that little touch 2 make it better!
