hey all, I've made this kind of minimalistic site from Swift3D V2 and Flash 5.
What do you think about it? I like the simplicity, but is it too simple?
I would much appreciate some critiques and any advice you can offer, thanks.

The idea is very good, I lyk it very much
try using a more exciting colour than that green, it looks very dull
good job :)

I think it's good. It's not too minimialist, it's really easy to navigate. The only thing I dislike is the outlined letters on the portfolio and contact.

Im with that :)
otherwise I think its nice! It might need more space though. The content area seems small and you're left with a lot of extra space as a result of the cube positioning.
too minimal? (I want to say no but I think it might be) ;)

I like it. Is it too minimal? Well its minimalism makes it easier/more simple to navigate so its not like its a minimalist without a cause. Really just a matter of personal preference, but its a little too simple for my liking, a bit more on screen would better keep a visitors interest. Not sure about the choice of colours either, sorry I didn't have much good to say!

Thanks for the feedback people. I'll maybe try to build on the theme without pushing it *ponders*
I kinda like the colours but I'll experiment with it anyway. size should probably go up a bit too.
And yeah, here organisation is spelled with an s, not a z like America. ;)
