Is this a fixed size? If not, the Flash file is HUGE and might not easily be seen on a screen with a smaller (normal) resolution.

The design and navigation are wonderful, no problems there. You bulk text could use a new font IMHO, but that's just my flavor, not a flaw on your end.

I like the colors, very pleasing to the eyes... and I would do away with the indent on your paragraphs.

Other than that, very nicely done, the flashing transitions are awesome!

I agree the flash file is very big, and will take a long time for modem users, but i am working on reducing the flash size.

Thanks for the compliments.

Hey Aman,

I wasn't talking file size, sorry, I meant actual pixel size...

If the Flash file doesn't scale to the size of the users screen I think it will be hard for alot of people using the average 1024x768 to see the whole thing without feeling "overwhelmed".

Load time is fine with this one, you don't have to wory about that at all... just actual screen size. And, hey, if this does scale, then disregard everything except - great job!

hey alan
i think i know what you mean, because i am using the default flash html script, and i have the size set to 100%, do you think i should use tables, and set it at a default of 800x600?

The splash screen looks good to me, i assume cable connection loads well, 56k took a little while.
I checked out the html version and the first thing i got was a javascript error, "expected )" I like the layout and color scheme with one exception.
The light grey font was a little hard to read, maybe using a sharper and/or a little darker color for the font would fix it for me.
Overall I give it a thumbs up.

I gave up on the flash version after a little while, seemed like it was going to be a "big all in my face" huge load.
Strong with this one, the sudo is.

Okay here are my crits and comments:
1. I really like your logo, but your logo in flash looks like ass. Is there a way you could clean it up? Perhaps have you thought about remaking it in Illustrator so its in vector and then importing it into Flash? Should be easier...
2. The flash did take a while to load... but overall alright. I really like the navigation bar =D
3. The graphics look really busy, just, too little aesthetic content for the size they take up.
4. Instead on your portfolio page to say "Photoshop" could you say "Illustration" or "2D", something like that? Sometimes it's better to let the viewer perceive you have other software knowledge other than Photoshop. Most of the time, the general viewer isn't aware of ALL the possibilities of Photoshop alone, so that idea degrades what you're able to do with it.

I hope I helped some. :wink: Just generally suggest to fix up your logo FIRST and think about the graphical content a little, just to humor me, hehe. :D

both of the designs are nice but, have not design colaration between them.

Html design is clean and soft but it gives very lighty effect after the main page dark design.

I do not like the flash design , it remains from the 1998's :wink: ..

I love the design on the front page... very "modern"... I do have to agree that the pixel x pixel dimentions of the flash is a little too large... from what statistics I've read, about 47% of internet users are still using 800 x 600 screen resolution. The flash doesn't show very well at that resolution. Also (probably due to file MB size) it seems to lag when navigation through the flash.

Other than that looks pretty good!
