hey, I like the 3d part of the site, good start
-The neon green is hard to read
-I think it would look better if you made the bg darker
-try making the bg picture fade out somehow on the sides
-whats the blue thing that comes out of the back when u click a button?

- The green is indeed hard to read, I'll fix that
- I'll try a darker bg
- I'll try that too, together with some better colors maybe.
- That's a submenu in progress, like for profile there 're gonna be 2 buttons there for "artistic" and "personal", same rollover most-likely as the sphere-buttons


thx for the comments! Keep 'm commin' ;)

- the site's 1.5 MB due to the 3D, if you know the original .swf was about 9MB, I think this the best I can do ...

- No real content? On a site that's not finished? Is that possible!? ... It is. :sure:


scuzzy for the double-post

Yea saw that you said it wasnt finish, i mean 1.5mb is kind of big and how big will the finished version be with all content? Just as much as i love making heavy flash site i hate loadtimes... But hey if you feel that your visitors can stand the load then go for it, its not so much of my style in design but i think it looks good so far... keep up the good work..

::Link is updated::

-I changed the green to a more suitable blue
-the bg is darker
-the bg-picture fades out now

And the size is now 1.37 MB, I think I won't increase much since the only thing left is the content and some buttons ...
