MP3 theme any good?

[B L U E]

Since theres no content yet, I'm curious to see if this theme has any potential? I hadnt seen a site similar yet, so I thought I'd run with the idea. Any suggestions?

I like it good use of gfx. BUT you need to centre it http://www.tutorio.com/tutorial/liquid-flash-layout thats where i found out :)

I know its not vertically centered, but it should be horizontally. What browser are you using?

[glyn3332]

No it is centre horizontally but id centre it vertically also. :beam:

[glyn3332]

Oh its firefox

make it fullscreen so that the loader doesn't go halfway out of the window... Looks nice :D I wanna see the final version of this one!

now i am awake i will add more than i did last post,

i would define it more, add more detailing into it, if you look at an actual mp3 playern its more detailed, i would add a border of sorts around the image, it just looks like its sitting there, make the buttons look more like buttons, they look unfinished atm.

i would remove the blur of the green lights (dots) and make them resemble the lights you would havenon a MP3, even out the gradient aswell it looks off maybe the light shade in the middle and the dark on top and bottom.

lastly i would make it a smidge bigger not alot but a little it looks kinda small with all the empty space around it. i wouldnt change the slides as they are perfect the way they are.

Take all my suggestions with a grain of salt, these are just some things i would do it if was me.

one more thing what about a name for your company site, that will be something you may want to put in somewhere.

Thanks for the comments! I made some adjustments to try to make everything blend more. Still not finished, just too tired. :P

its very nice, especially the kinda reflection effect... makes it nice

how did you make that?


few things:

set the fps up, its a bit slow and borderline on jerky

the highlight over the center button (the big round one) is dominating the page.

i think you need to change the loading thing, how does the loading icon look when its not following the mouse? maybe change its style a bit so people get shocked when the page loaded and perhaps make the mp3 player outline appear at first (in white or the blue colour you used for 'my work') at first (sillouette style) and then alpha fade the actual mp3 design in or fade the other one out ontop ^^

also, when someone hits 'my work', whats happening? i think you need to get rid of the reflection during those areas of your page

the audio thing above the main area on the mp3 player, i think it would be better if it didnt scroll out. there is too much of the page just sliding out from the main 'mp3 player thing :)' and not enough focus on the actual mp3 player

It looked good but I clicked on a menu option and I've been waiting fora few mins for something to appear on the blue window that popped up...theres no load bar or anything to tell the user whats going on so thats pretty poor from a usability point of view :(

...no its still not loaded..gonna have to refresh :(

seems like all sections are like that at the moment.

Graphically its ok but I feel that the whole mp3 player kinda theme is a little too gimmicky.

[danulf]

I don't think he has content yet :D

[Barcadia]

mp3 players are designed to be compact and simple... i dont think it really does your site any favours to use this theme without straying far away from the whole mp3 player idea its cool tho
