My first post to this site, looks very helpfull.
here is my flash site for a bit of assessment please.

www.grafichouse.co.uk and enjoy the movie then click on the flash version, oh and by all means check out the html version aswell I'm kinda pleased with the look of that one, it's new.

cheers,

One of my favourites. Last Night. Great choice.

I liked the html better. It is also a lot faster to navigate, as Flash sites with transitions everywhere just gets irritating after the first time.

Nice. One suggestion would be to spruce up that splash page to the level of the sites, like making the links to the flash/HTML sites images instead of HTML links, just looks prettier. Wow though, for a new comer, thats very impressive. Glad to have you here :)

thanks for the feedback guys.

Thanks, i didn't have time to finish earlier.
So....I take your point about the text links looking a bit dull. the idea basically is to try and keep load time to an absolute minimum so dial up 56k users can also see the dancing house movie, if they had to wait for other graphics aswell it would slow down the whole thing and they may get board and just go to the html site.
as it is it doesn't take very long to load up the first page and i would rather people see the flash animation than wait for some pretty graphics that their only going to see for a short time before they go into the main sites.

I will say though in the case of this website the flash version is actually not very big either and loads up pretty quick on a 56k connection aswell.

Ok Colin I thought i'd have a go at brightening it up a bit, the extra graphics only amount to 12kb so they should be ok.....what do you think ?? ;)

Nice, good improvement at such a low cost, don't you think? Well done too. Keep it up buddy.
