haha, I'm using Opera, I thought that there was some kind of
problems with browser, but I tried IE too and it wasn't working....but now it's working =).
well, not bad. It looks plain and unorganized, maybe you could use
borders and more colors. You should work more on your transitions
too (like out effect).
You could use more font colors, not only orange. Maybe change link color.

It's an okay start, but you still have a long way to go.
What I don't like is the orange text, it's a bit hard to read especially on a white background. You should use black text which will be easier for your viewers to read.
Also you should work on your layout as well, right now all you really have is a nav bar and the content is just floating at the bottom. It's simple, but too simple so it gets boring real fast.
As for transitions, you should work on that as well, there aren't really any tutorials for transitions, it's just something each person creates on their own after trial and error so continue experimenting.
Good luck. =)

i agree with EG.
Besides sites without contents are usually quite annoying and you dont want to come back to them...
Use a splash page telling when your site will be finished, and do add some contents, wether it be your portofolio, personal leisure or anything, just dont leave empty links :beam: keep up the good work !

I like what you've got so far for the most part. Thing is though, aside from the fading between sections (which is good) it could have been made easily as an html document with some javascript. Use flash to animate more, thats what its for. Maybe have the header build up when it loads, and have the text fly from the side or fade in in chunks or something. There are plenty of awesome tutorials in kirupa.com for learning the works, but apply your imagination to them, surprise everyone.
Also i agree that orange text is hard to see on white. You can use it, but give the text then a contrasting background, like blue, purple, or black/dark grey.
last thing, you might try setting the html page margins to zero, particularly on the left if you want it aligned with the side, otherwise try centering it in the page.
hope that helps, goodluck.
