site review

Hey

Just working on a site for presentations and was wondering if the flash is appropiate plus the design

its in its early stages but the framework should stay generally the same.

Hey,

yeah seems ok, the flash doesnt take 2 long to load. But I think using a Coda Slider there would be better than using flash. Thats just a personal preference because I'm not a flash fan

You could have the 3 links and the info for each in the slider. You can put images, content, videos.. whatever in the slider. I really like this and have used for many sites. Would look slicker and load more quickly. Worth a look at anyway.

Also, I'd make the page width slightly smaller to give it a neater look, but again.. thats just a personal preference.

Loads instantly on broadband but graphics seem low res and fps seems low. I think you could crank up the quality a little without upsetting load times too much? Grey in left col hard to read - lighten bg or darken color. A footer area might be nice? Finally doesn't fit on 1024 width. A few other small things I assume are on the to do list.

The design is good btw - corporate vibe.

Cheers went through it with the boss today and have bits and bobs to change but they are happy with the overall look - thanks for the input. Think I may stick with the flash on this one but that codeslider thing is pretty sweet - definately incorporate it in some other sites!
