    looking good, i like the overall look except the banner at the bottom.

    the only thing is each menu when clicked on looks like it opens a new html page thus goes blank then reloads mostly the same imagery except the main info which the a loading bars comes up is there ay way to make this a smoother transition
    NOW! look whats happened! I told you to watch this space and now its gone.

    You work for the globe and mail
    and you ask for a site check here
    after the content goes live?

    LOL! It is called advertisement Mike!

    Looks good though! Very crisp and clean, loads fast.... And even the banner ad at the bottom is not that distracting.

    Nice to see something bright and colourful. I like the contrasting red against the grey.

    Nice Site. Where did you get your pictures?

    I thought your site was so awesome, and the pictures where so great, I wanted to know where you got the pictures, and if you used anything like photoshop in addition to swish to make them look so nice. Thanks, and great job.

    Hi there...

    the photos were a combination of:

    - stock photos for the interface
    - Olympic approved venue and ahtlete bio photos
    - field photos taken by photographers for the galleries

    yes, photoshop optimized

    I don't quite know what you mean by this comment.
    I assume this forum is intended for showcasing what can be accomplished with swishmax - and that is exactly what I've done.

    Very quick loading site. Very complete site. All you have to do is lose that banner or fill the banner at the bottom.
    "It isn't working!"
    "Hmmm...Did you jiggle it!?!"
