hey kids!

black is, umm, the new black. Or so you might think from looking at my new guinness-inspired creation. special thanks to jesse for help with some of the preloading issues. all the FLAs are available for download, and (now don't think I'm bribing you here, kids) you can nick such goodies as a scripted movie speedometer which speeds up / slows down / reverses a movie dynamically according to mouse position. It's drag and droppable into your own movie! And it took me bloody ages to come to an elegant way of loading multiple swfs without keeping the user waiting too long - you, dear reader can half-inch my solution for gratis.

it's all here:

Very nifty speedometer. I might have to nick that at some stage. I really like the Case Studies section...it's a great interactive way of showing a portfolio.

The only thing I can suggest is structuring the navigation so you don't have to use a 'back' button. Oh, and labels on the buttons might help!

Overall, a great site.
