Sure, heres some feedback......

I don't like the font of your preloader indicator (percentage) It looks out of place and clunky. Your main page preloader also deserves some more effort, it is not consistant with the rest of the sites quality.

The population of the main screen, is excellent. Good job!

I would personally decrease the size of your main page font. It looks a little big to me.

The letters of the logo on the top left are to small. Make it bigger so you can see the reflection better.

Your products showcase examples are very slow to load for just a picture. What size is each picture?

Your contact page needs a little work and again the font is too big. Make a form to send a mail or quote request. That way you will be able to fill that space nicely without a large font.

I would lose the apache logo in the bottom right, or make it better quality.

Do you really need that much copyright info?

Overall: Nice site, but you need a little work on file sizes and jpg quality and preloaders. If you get that done, you could have a real winner on your hands!

I'm afraid your site sucks a bit to hard to call it a beauty...

Maybe I'm too critic, but hey, that's the risk you take:

- The loader is of poor Flash3 quality, actually, I saw people in the mid 90's make better loaders than this one
- The upcomming of your interface is too clearly fake 3D
- The interface itself is a weak rip-off. I state that anyone who rips off, should create a better end result than the original - clearly not the case here...

Little advise: check the swift3D site, and get some inspiration. Maybe you can make your site worth watching....

Again: sorry for 'de kritiek'.

thanks grappaFruit, its actually real 3D but i went back and cleaned it up to reduce the file size, i used 3ds and plasma, not swift.

About the rip off remark, what do you feal was ripped off and from where?

Thanks

First off: I kinda think the site sucks as well, no need for me to state my reasons since pretty much all of them have been mentioned above...

Tip: The site's a bit too big, well, actually SH!TLOADS of 'bits'...looking at height/width...I mean, for example: if I were blind I wouldn't need glasses to read your text...so maybe it's blindman-friendly, but it kinda starts eating the eyes of the designers and I guess alot of the visitors...So the conclusing is that it could be a bit smaller...I don't like fontsize 3295

Well, fix that for starters and then I'll have another look...If I go on and on my posts become huge and you'll start to know I'm an asshole :o

Since those site's were created in the 1990's by the trendsetter-designers, those sites are probably not online anymore :rolleyes:

DUTCH: Spijt mij ook van de kritiek ;)

Tip: read some typo materials as how the text size should be used. For example the main text is too big to space, but the menu is 2 small 2 invisible, it doesn's sugest you hey I'm here. I repeat Sugest not CRY ;).
You should work more on the quality of the graphics, don't sacrifice quality for smaller file.

Thanks for the great feedback, Ive done, and will do more work based what you told me.

I would like to applaud Thoma$ for asking for critique and LISTENING to it. Too many people ask for harsh critique and then whine and fight about why everybody is being mean to them.

Here here Thoma$! An attitude like that will advance your design skills quickly ^_^
