New Flash site.

Finished my site awhile ago. Not too many visiters yet, so I thought I would post it here it see what people think. Was done for my website design company.

All C&C’s welcome.

Well, its a simple design with simple easy clear navigation :thumbsup: Im not a huge fan of music or sound effects in sites, as they do tend to annoy you so I reckon lose the sound, or have it softer…but that’s just my opinion :).

It has a sort of comic feel to it, doesnt it? Umm, the only other thing is the thick black line for the border could be thinner. Otherwise its an alright design, I think the design could be improved but it all depends on your style and taste! :slight_smile:

Cheers!

I agree with Queen K, loose the sounds. I reckon it’d get annoying after a while. I like the sweeping change for the pages coming out from the logo. That works well. I thought maybe you could change the baclgroung each time. Bring the Jakal poses from the top into it, a different one for each section. Maybe you could rotoscope some anitmation of the jakal changing poses? That might look nice.

I’m not sure about the main shape you’ve used to constrain the page. It doesn’t really work for me, but thats down to personal taste. It’s just the corners seem to cut off to me.

One other thing from a typographic point of view maybe try a heavier change in font style for the titles and the sentence text. Is it ariel Black your using? Maybe go down to ariel bold for the sentences, again thats just personal taste.

One other thing. The first thing that came into my head when I saw your logo was…Thunder, thunder…Thunder Cats Ho!!! Haha thats all good tho :wink:

Looking good in general just a few tweeks here and there and it’ll be sweet as a nut!

Mikp11 you thought of thundercats…hahaha I loved that cartoon!! But for me, when I first saw the logo was Jurassic Park!! Must be the whole black in a red circle! :slight_smile:

Yeah, I was also just thinking about the fonts, well actually the headers, they are a fainter colour then the main text…maybe they should be darker.

What do you think Jakal?

Cheers!

Yeah, I guess its funny that the logo turned out that way. Complete accident, I wasnt even thinking about those when I made it. hum…

As for the header and fonts. Thats a matter of personal preference and I like them the way they are.

Thanks for all the comments.
