Portfolio Book v2

[urban]

I just uploaded my new site recently and would like some feedback on usability, design, programming and etc. Any advice would be great but please be specific when possible.

The site looks good. I enjoyed the color scheme and it was very easy to navigate. One thing as far as a programming thing...I was able to scroll back to negative page numbers. I dont know if you want that to happen or if you want to put a stop on that. I did notice a slight glitch with the hand icon. When I clicked on it and went to drag the book, I could actually see the bounding square because it was a slightly different shade of gray. Some people might catch that, other may not.

I forgot to mention. It was loading pretty slow. I saw that one of the requirements on the first screen was a broadband connection. I have a T1 and I was still feeling a little slow. Just a thought.

thought it looked good.

Pyro was right about being able to go backwards to minus numbers. perhaps freeze out the back button when you get to the introduction page.

The sketches looked good and I liked the way you put them on a book.

I think the fact that when you drag, there is a shadow, is good. It helps in seeing what is being moved.

by the way. It wasn't slow to upload on my computer.

:p

Thanks for the replys /Pyro and bluegel. I never noticed the back buttons going to negative numbers before. I will definitly have to fix that.

Draging: You both said that you could see a bounding box around the hand cursor when draging. The _alpha is suposed to be 0%. I can't see it on my computer and I am wondering if their are any other solutions I can implement. I wan't it to be unseen but their so none of the pages can register an onRelease/onPress, and etc.

Also sorry about the slow upload time. The main site is only 37kb and the Book is 30kb. I think it is my current hosting that is causing the slow uploading.

Thanks
