I like the concept of the menu and the content part. Not sure about the colours though. There are some very cool products inside it.(Are you one of those designers?). Also very easy to use.

there´s only one thing:
coming from -home- the different icons show the surfer the sections, pretty fine. but when the surfer is in -produkts- and wants to go to -news- (trumpet icon) he reads home (?), he should read -news-. this means he has to go to -home- first to get to -news-. one step to much!
i like ur fresh design
how u use fonts
how u animate
comfortable loading times
goodygood work!

BLEEDA,
I like the design, its hard to find "controlled" flash with usablility, and thats site has done it well. However :
1) The scrolling 'menu' that lets the products pass through is nice, but the usablility is not as good as it could be, and it would not take much to improve it. - The problem is......is that you can only see the spec of the product (e.g the chair) when your cursor is actually over it (not a massive hit area, combined with the fact that it is moving) - people will want to read the spec , but you cannot read in the bottom left of the screen and expect the user to mover his/her cursor with the object.
I appreciate that the pic's do slow down when in the 'target' area and that if the user wanted to find out more, then all they have to do is click, but even then they have to keep up with the constantly moving product ! This could make it a bit more difficult than need be.
2) Also, the masked 'dotted' lines with the pics on the end that come flying out - do they serve a purpose ? Because (this is probably me just being a bit dopy) i felt like i should be clicking on them, (because they happen on a mouse over), so i naturally assumed that i could use them to gain extra info etc.
As for the colors, well i really liked them, calm, oraganised, but at the same time, eye catching and grabbing, without being annoying.
3) This is just me being picky, now before i continue, i understand two things
I) Your the pro and i am not.
II) You desinged it like that for a purpose, + you want a certain effect.
But - The shadows on the text (in my humble opinion) made it a little hard to read, it is not immeadiatly apparent what is written. I know that you want that kind of effect, to fit in with the "boucne" on certain buttons, but just thought i'd let you know.
But over all, i really love the site, i mean really love it. Why ? Well probably not for the reason lots of people would love it for ie. - not the design, not the colors, ....but the usability of it. I am a massive fan of usability, and poeple in flash usually f*ck usability up because of unessecary flash and annoying aniamiton. But that site strikes a perfect balance of being instantly ammusing / interesting for the user, yet i was never (at any point) confused, the menu is always visible and the pic/text buttons were prefect !
Great usablility, nice design, calm yet grabbing colors, smooth flash (controlled) and simple graphics !
I shall look at it tonight, when i should be revising !
Hoped this helped,
Snapple :)
