ey! guys wassup!...i need your comments about my site...
will anyway the concept of my design is basically inspired by the flash masters around the net, and to all flashers out there, you know what i mean...i made it in flash, and to tell you this, my personnal site is done in full flash animation, and its my first time using the software....
heres the link www.z-dezignz.cjb.net (http://www.z-dezignz.cjb.net/)
i need your feedback, wether its nasty or nice, i do accept any kinds of critics, in that way tho, i can improve my self as a designer..

cheers!...

I like the site. The sounds are really good but the background music should turn off after some time, especially the drum sound. I think in the home page you should quickly explain what your site is all about, and move the text you have in there now to the identity section. You should add a portfolio section. I think the site is really good, just add more content and less text.

and its my first time using the software....
It's written "Version 3" there. Wow, luv that techy look. News and Updates - change the font for the content - it's difficult to read. The same goes to About Me, Identity, etc. Very difficult to read such font. To crown it all, it's gray on a gray background. The shadow around the site is cropped in a wrong way. The pixel font for the menu is blurry. Make sure you embeded pixel fonts everywhere: some preloaders contain fonts, which meant to be pixel, but they appear as device fonts. Transitions while you change sections, could be better. Didn't get at first how the music panel works (couldn't find how to open it) + the pixel font "Open/Close" is blurry. Mind it. Contact section - sign e-mail form should be marked somehow, even with some other color prolly. Gallery - photos should be of better quality, not just mobile camera's shots. Guestbook - everything is Ok, except the scroller - it's like a white spot. I'd recommend you to make it more grayish, but at the same time visible to everybody. The last thing I'd like to mention is that it'd be better to choose some title for the site that appears in the browser: ppl would remember the site better. Overall, very nice site. I definitely luv the style. Keep up the good work, and welcome on board. ;)

Very nice. Seemed like it took forever to finally get all the little panes loaded up though. Particularly the main content since it loaded last. Not something I normally run into since I'm on broadband at work. The font in several sections is too dark though. A font as small as that needs higher contrast, it made my eyes tired trying to read it. A little tweaking though and you'll really have something.

For a first time it's ok. It's a shame you couldn't think of something a bit more original rather than impersonating another style which has been around quite a while. The text is really hard to read for my tiny eyes :). You should try and get someone else to produce your text for you, as, at the moment the copy is really poor. But overall it's ok.

takes way too long to load... all those little animations and crap, I sat there staring at zero content and no functional menu while little things bliped, flashed, moved and opened in order to get the content. In this case the animation ONLY take away from the design, because they kill the usability. You need to optimize and simplify and then make them play more at once, less in sequence. Other than that, it looks like a binch of recycled things from other sites (esp 2A's older ones). Since youre starting I;d say :thumb:

but work on getting your own style... or at least put your own twist on a style you like... basically give it your mark... so far I dont see anything thats 'you' just stuff thats been compiled and dumped here ;)

Good luck, keep at it!

Peace
