My first Flash site

[pauldelanoit]

Check it out and advise, please be kind, this is my first flash site, maybe I overdid it.

I dont think you overdid it, but I would suggest two little things if you permit me:
1) Add a little sound when the cars slide into the stage.
2) Adjust the background color. The Intro is mainly grey, and the main page has a blueish background... Can you choose one for both?

But overall, CONGRATS, very neat job! :)

Thanks for the input, I will look into maybe changing it.

I'd say bump up your frame rate so things run faster / smoother and work a bit on the content layout because it looks very busy. Primarily because there's no text focus. It's like everything from the main content to the disclaimer content is of equal importance so the layout starts looking really cluttered.

But of course, if you ask me, i say get rid of the intro altogether because it's sorta pointless and gets in the way.

Having said all that, for a first project you did a pretty good job and good use of the scroll component.

I have removed the intro, it was used before the raffle started and the client really liked it and wanted to keep it. But with your input and my encourgement I talked him into it.... thanks!

looking good - The nav on the Scion info pages is interesting - Just one small thing i noticed on the front page.... The title jumps very slightly to the right on the last frame when it finished its left movement.

I would rework the buttons so they look more real, lighting and shadows all working together in a website is important.

I would make standard features more readable.

Other then that nice work.

I changed the frame rate to 25, but it looks awful fast to me, what do you think?

If you bump up the frame rate, you should extend your tweens a bit to compensate. It may sound counterproductive but essentially what you're doing is making your animation smoother...not faster. You want to avoid that jerky 1930's King Kong claymation feel. Don't jerk King Kong. He doesn't like it.

I have extended the tweens, hows it look now?

It looks good. One thing that I would point out in addition to the points added above is that the text is rather hard to read where the options are writen on the side. Other then that fantastic

keep up the good work
