Name now makes sense
Hi,
I finally registered again as Larchmedia 2 to try and get my posts to make sense. No more StudyDog user name.
Thanks for the feedback so far.
I would like to get more feedback if possible. Including some of the content. So far most feedback is about the homepage. Please dig around and post feedback on other areas.
Thanks
Larchmedia

Your center aligning under Resume looks horrible. Left align it and it will look more organized.
Remove the website counter at the bottom. No offense, but nobody cares.
Remind me again. Why is the navigation done in flash? The mouseover effects can be done in CSS.

No offence taken.
Thanks for telling me about the centering. I hadn't seen it do that before. Last time I checked that page on my Mac it was fine. On my PC now it is centered. I will have to look into it.
As far as the Flash navigation is concerned. It is a throwback from when I was first using Flash 4. It kind of stuck out of laziness.

Forgive me if I'm missing somthing but, why use flash at all?
you are simply mimmicking basic html and java.
I thoght Flash was for what html can't do???
no malice here, just curious if I'm missing some benefits of what you are doing here.

Part of the reason for me using Flash is so that it is more platform/browser independent. Just when you think you have a site working correctly a new browser version comes out that ignores some part of the CSS or the end user's browser settings change etc. I spent a lot of time when I was developing getting links to show how I wanted only to have a new browser released that put boxes around all graphical links. It ignored the no border parameter. Another benefit I find is that you can use Flash more like an include file. If you have the same code in multiple places then one change to the Flash code changes them all. I am not saying it is better to use Flash just that I prefer some of it's benefits as it makes developing smoother for me. The drawbacks are that your site is relient on the Flash plug-in, but with so much Flash content anyway it seemed a fair tratade off.

It's an interesting site though it can be made with plain HTML and CSS.But it's a nice site.

Thanks for the kind words.
If you see my previous post you will see why I decided to go the Flash route. I wanted to take out as many incompatibilities as possible. Admittedly if I knew more CSS and DHTML I may have been able to create the site without Flash or incompatibilities, but if you have a tool and it can do the job quicker and easier, then why not use it.

To help defeat browser incompatibilities:
- declare a doctype
- use XHTML & CSS1/2
- DL Mozilla, Netscape, Opera and test
Learning to code correctly is different then learning to code for IE.

Can you explain more?
I have this tag in my pages put in by BBEdit
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/1998/REC-html40-19980424/loose.dtd">
Should I be changing this?
If so to what?

Here's that link for anyone else interested.

I think if you add some red and I add some green we'll have matching sites in time for Christmas.
