Hello All,
I just launched my portfolio site, and I would be much obliged if you would check it out and let me know what you think!

Check out the Broadband site to see the streaming MP3 player!
Thanks,

Great,works for me.Just change the following:everywhere you have the word *I* change to *we,our,the team,project overseer,etc.*.
It is better marketing,even if you are 1 guy using Kinko's as your office.;)

What size monitor are you making this for? It seems just a tad too big for 800x600? The "contact us" is below the crease, as well as the other info...
Oh but very nice music...i'm on cable so it loaded well for me but I'd be curious as to how big that sound file is ??
The only other thing is that the actual type treatment for melodrumatic could use a little spiffing up. it's too generic for the content of the site. Try futzing with it in illustrator etc.

yeah - why so many <br> above the swf? drops the site off the screen :(
not convinced by the sound effects on the nav menu, they just seem too sharp alongside the chilled musak.
you might also want to think about which font you specify for the input text boxes on your contact form, maybe you've forgotten to embed your font, but on my pooter it is showing up as Times New Roman? It looks a bit nasty in conjunction with the rest of the site.
And being really picky - your send and clear buttons don't strike me as totally gelling with the rest of the site either *shrug*
Again - picky - in your nav are the text descriptions supposed to line up with the boxes? They seem to do so at the top but the bottom ones are slipping down a bit. It's nice when the dots line up with the grid, but some of them are a touch off.
job's a good'n! :)

hey, your website is a nice lookin site, and the programming is smooth, but to be honest the thing that bothers me... well... your main site layout has a very futuristic, techno look to it. hard lines, nice colors, but you added this cartoon type bounce to your info windows as well as your drop down nav. makes it a little less successful... but thats just my opinion, other than that, nice work

Hi there - just wanted to say that I think your site looks really great. One of the things that I liked about it so much was the music you've got in the background.
I'm kind of new to the whole Flash thing, but I'm learning gradually and I was intrigued as to where you get the music from. Obviously there are the problems of copyright if you start putting other people's music on your sites, but I was wondering if there was some archive or something you used on the net.
Anyway - congratulations on the website again. Looks like you've done some really nice work.
Si

Do this:
<html>
<head>
<title>Title Here</title>
</head>
<body bgcolor="#FFFFFF" leftmargin="0" topmargin="0" marginwidth="0" marginheight="0">
<table width="100%" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" height="100%">
<tr>
<td align="center" valign="middle">Embed Flash Here</td>
</tr>
</table>
</body>
</html>

yeah if you use a table within a table no problems.
I always create a table in these situations 100% width 100% height and that fills whatever size screen the person has then just use valign="middle" align="center".
Sometimes its good to nest another table within that one if you have to keep multiple thinks in check.
Oh yeah looks good to me, always like to see clean good design :)
OH yeah question too: About the sound setup you have. I was thinking of doing similar for project im working on now, full length songs with tracks. Do you have it setup as a separate movie using streaming? If so what quality rate did u use for the sound files so that they also stream well in 56k? Thanks

I've found many many many similar things with the popular and award winning 2advanced Studios (www.2advanced.com). Just compare their animation style and the concept of the portfolio. Nearly the same, with different colours and maybe some new graphics.
Well, its ok to copy a little here and there when we really run dry of ideas... but this is an obvious copy...
2advanced studios is also featured in the Cool Sites in the Links of this actionscript.org
