Here is another site we launched recently. Again, nothing special, but it helping the sales of their debut album and bring new faces to their Texas shows.

Let me know what you think.

Looking good again. I agree that the navigation font isn't brilliant, but it gets the job done. A little hard on the eyes. I think it'd be nice if the photos opened within the Flash file, that's my main issue with it.

I hear you...I prefer photo galleries to be 100% Flash, but bands really like their fans taking pics off the site and using them for reviews or what not. Same with lyrics. We learned this the hard way after doing so many band sites...and having to scrap things we built. yuk.

Looks great, The artwork and theme are great...I like the navigation (i agree the font could be better) but the animation is nice.
Keep up the good work.

Noir.

You know, that hadn't occured to me that the users would have trouble downloading and distributing them if the page was full Flash. You could of course just add a small link to the image file, that'd be very easy to implement, but I understand your choice.

The color scheme was beautifully executed, I really like it, yes I was browsing the site, and the font was making it harder for me to understad what was going on.

The photo section, is alright for me, you might want to make the place holder for the image to have some of the themming of the site, like borders, and or the logo on the corner.

That's from mua :cyborg:

Very nice!

My only quibble is for the nav.:

Just me here, but I don't like the new tab thingy popping up over the first one. Maybe make the rollover tab's alpha at 0% where the text is on the first tab (if that was said clear enough).

I don't really like the bottom footer either, it doesn't really correspond with the rest of the site IMO.

Other than that, very very nice!

The font isn't that bad guys. ;) I think it gives the site just the smallest touch of "country - western" which it needed.

We started this site on a morning, and launched it that night. Once the client signs a maintenance agreement, and we are doing more updates to the shows etc... we will probably convert most of the body fonts over to bitmap. (fingers crossed) but I think I'll leave the NAV fonts alone.

Thanks for taking a look at the site though everybody!

thats all folks
