Looks great,
It's got a solid, stylish look and feel from the animation right down to the photo work.

Kudos ;)

good job, my only minor gripe, maybe disable the selected meny button when on that section

looks great!

A very nice site - i really do like it.

I would perhaps try and search for a better qaulity loop for the music - it sounds great, but its very easy to tell when it stops, and it kinda gets annoying. Loops only work if your not aware its a loop.

Nice site, nice work, loved the preloader, loved the slick feel to it.

Respect.

Regards, snapple :)

thanx again...
it makes me proud to get that much positive response.

subquark:

i will disable the selected menubutton :)
i haven´t realized it, but i think that´s why we got this site check topic...

snapple:

you´re right, i often have problems with my sound loops.
there always seems to be a short pause between the loops, and i already posted this problem, but didn´t get any solution.

any ideas :confused:

cheers

yes, you are correct, perfect for site check and it's avery minor thing. the previous version of 2advanced did not disable their buttons, so you are in good company

sound loops can be really tough, I play with mine in either Acid Loops or SoundForge, but it's always luck if I am able to get anything to sound good!

[cobo]

:D yeah... you´re right... just checked the previous version of 2adv.

in this case it don´t seems to be a kind of newbie fault...
puuh....

[subquark]

neato! i did not know they had the previous version available! Thanks!

It always bugs me when buttons don't get disabled, and I should go one step further myself by using a flag to indicate a button that has already been visited, after all, simple html links let you know what you have already viewed!

[cobo]

yip... it takes some time in flash to mark those visited sections if you don´t use AS funcs, and for some reason i prefer to just switch on invisible layers on my buttons.

it´s funny how simple html things went nasty if you want to have the same functionallity in flash...

well, that's an okay approcah, when the selected section comes up, send the button mc to an "_alreadyVisited" state
this[item+"_btn"].onRelease = function() {
. . .
this.gotoAndStop("_alreadyVisited");
this.enabled = 0;} but someone was talking about using flags, which is probably more efficient.
