Hey Michael,

I'm using IE 6, Win2K, Res is 1280 x 800.

The left menu loads off screen for me, I can see it if I go full screen. The colors and text look cool though ;D

[J.R. Hudson]

I see nothing but black :/

[Isaac_Brody]

It's a little post modern... maybe you could add some color or a balloon or something.

[J.R. Hudson]

:D Maybe an animated bunny .gif?

[MDfilms]

I know there are some problems right now. I have people working on it. I hope to have everything fixed by the end of the week but hopefully by tomorrow. There is more content that hasn't been put into play. I'm sorry that some of you haven't been able to really see the site they way it should be. Please sign up for updates. Thanks for looking

[J.R. Hudson]

Cant wait. (and get a DVX man!)

[MDfilms]

AND Isaac, I dont really understand your comment about color. Maybe you went to the wrong site.

[MDfilms]

thanks John. I always look forward to your comments. Soon, I'll have the DVX.

It takes a long time to load/seems bogged down? Might want to reduce the number of flash animation moving the panels around.

And in flash you can also make the button for "skip intro" bigger too.

:) I second the bunny idea... :)

[MDfilms]

Its a fast server so I dont know why your having a problem. I have yet to see any speed problems on different machines its been tested on. I take it you didn't like the intro since you want to have huge skip button in the panel.

NO Bunny

[Phil]

Sorry about that, I jumped into what to fix, rude of me, I liked it a lot!!

As far as the speed goes, when you load it up, does it move smoothly? or as the panels move do they click click click click?

[Phil]

Keep up the good work though! I'm just starting on mine too, so I'd like your input when I post mine! :)

[MDfilms]

No problem. *Doing a website isn't as easy as it may seem. *I had no idea how much work went into this site and its not really HUGE. *

The intro should be smooth. *It changes on the beats but moves smooth. *Maybe your connect is being slow. *I have yet to see move in that manner.

[J.R. Hudson]

Wait

Im not even getting anything but Black. Some verbage on the nottom but nothing else

[BLWolf]

Looks fine, but doesn't let me skip the intro.

[Isaac_Brody]

Michael,

When I click on the link it just shows a black screen with some writing on the bottom. I was referring to that in my message. That's strange if some people are seeing a flash animation. All I see is black. I'm using Internet Explorer 6. I'll look at it again tomorrow.

[J.R. Hudson]

Same here and I have the latest Flash as far as I know (No other issues with other sites) and if I didnt it should prompt the user to DL or UPDATE:

This site requires MACFLASH Version 8 or HIGHER. If you do not have the latest version you can download it for FREE here.

[THiNSPiRiT]

I personally would never use flash to begin with to make the entire site. Way too many compatibility issues as you've noticed...

If you really want flash it might be a good idea to make part of it in flash and other parts in something like javascript. Not everyone has fast enough computers to view a site as complex and flashy as that one... it moved a little slow for me simply because of my computer. My computer ain't slow either... it's a pretty fast one...

This would involve completely revamping your site though which you probably don't want to end up doing. I like the video on the intro though, very nicely done, looks very good.

Simple sometimes works better. CSS and HTML are always more user friendly and give across the same content. You can get it to look really good too and even add some effects using javascript that are pretty compatible.

At least giving your users the option to choose between the two would be a good idea.

[MDfilms]

html isn't very exicted. The site has some bugs at the moment. Like I've said already, things will be fixed. It will user friendly for all. Thanks for your time.
