Hi All,
this is my first go at doing a flash type site, in fact it's a webiste with Flash modules. There's lots about it I need to change but please offer your feedback for the version 2 around the corner. btw the flash modules aren't intended for 56k modems (the html options with embedded animations is for that).

thanks in advance to all who offer constructive criticism. btw I need to redo the video probably, it's a bit bland and there are ways I could cut back on the filesizes.

cheers
Hatsi.

Are you using Squeeze to compress your vids? The reason I ask is because the audio sounded "lispy", which is usually indicative of someone compressing the audio twice. When you import the FLVs, you should be mindful that the audio tracks remain uncompressed before being embedded, as Flash will compress them again. If you go with loading those file externally, then you'd have a better experience there, anyhow.

Out side of that, I clicked on a module (module 6) and the thing did take a long time to load. There aren't a lot of assets in that Flash piece, either, just a video, so I'm trying to figure out where your weight is coming from? I think you may want to recompress the video to get it down a bit.

Outside of that, it's looking good. What is this for?
