    Fantastic stuff.

    But do get rid of the menacing music. It's annoying and doesn't really fit the site.

    Thanks for reply Fanny Cradock!

    But you have the button "sound off/on" if you are not attracted by the background music.

    Background music is generally a bad idea and at least turned off by default.

    The navigation is less than intuitive.

    The links on the homepage are too far down, below the fold on my typical screensize.

    Thanks tricky D,
    according to navigation, is it not visible enough?
    I will try to do something with the size of the web:)

    The text links are too far down.

    If I am looking at your advert stuff, then want to look at another category, I can't just click on the other category which is the intuitive thing to do. Instead I have search and find out that the shape in the top right will take me back to the 3 main choices and then I have to click again. I should be able to click directly in and the shape is not intuitive, out-of-context and just not needed.

    I should also be able to click the MC shape in the top lhs to go back to the start.

    The gallery nav arrows could also be up the page a bit more.



    There's also the issue of Flash and SEO anf other matters. If this is a personal project then Flash is OK, but if this is commercial, then using Flash is a really bad thing.

    I will consider to bring some changes to make the navigation easier.
    I was thinking about linking the logo with the home page before.It looks like it's needed:)
    When I will change the appearance of the website you should be able to see the entire elements balanced.
    It is my personal project indeed but I wanted to get some cool movements.
    I'm aware of the negative sides of flash so when I will have some new project to create I might use different tool
