Looks a little to "made for kids by a kid" but if that is what you were going for then good job! Primary colors against a white background doesn't look good... to me..otherwise..

well here is some advice for ya. Gallary is spelled wrong, should be GALLERY. You can also make the text and buttons smaller. They are alot bigger than they need to be, this would allow for more screen space for information

Yeah ..
To tell the truth, I hate Comic Sans font .. :)
And the colours are clumsy ..

(as always - everything is IMHO)

Thanks for the comments.
I realized how child like my web site is.
It was my first flash site that I ever made though.
I think that I am going to create a better site with some effects that I learned of flaskit.

Don't worry, everyone has his first sites ... Just find some books or articles about colors and color schemes.. There is a great program ColorWheel Pro (http://color-wheel-pro.com). Unfortunately, it's shareware, but just try it .. It's very useful when you're looking for color scheme for your site (label, whatever) .. Maybe, somebody here knows another program like this? Cause, Im looking for something similar but freeware..:D

Thanks I will try that program or try and find a different one.
I think that for my new page I will do some sort of different graphic with thinner lines and none of those bright green ones.

and choose better colours... these are to strong... make the colours softer like pastels...

Comic sans can look okay when used properly - I used it here. (http://www.deathandmrsbrady.co.uk)

I'd say the main problem you've got is with your use of colour. For a simple swatch-picking approach to good colour schemes, try this (http://www.amazon.co.uk/exec/obidos/ASIN/1564964019/ironlung08).

Hey Aelius,

Nice site. Nice illustration on the Front page. Good site planning to. Did you illustrate it or hire out?
