www.avrielphoto.com (photographer friend's site I'm working on, almost done)

I'm working on this photo portfolio site for a friend and I don't have other computers, or many browsers, to doublecheck it from. She told me that she was kinda worried because today she was trying to check it out from a computer at a lab somewhere (she's travelling now) and it didn't show up right. There are 7 photo galleries, their buttons show up after "images" is clicked. She's had trouble getting them to load at all. I think I just solved that problem though. The main swf that dynamically loads the others that make up the site is done for flash player 8, the loaded swfs are done for flash player 8 or 6 (I know, kinda inconsistent.. the issue probably doesn't lie here though)

If you'd like to help by checking it out and telling me the galleries load fine after going back and forth to other sections, please do and thanks! Not a very impressive site right now, I know. She didn't want it to be very flashy at all and she didn't want any graphics, drop-shadowing, beveling etc somehow. I'm just doing some doublechecking to make sure it's functioning right. I'm not even sure if I'll include this as part of my portfolio because it's so plain for a flash site.

Next time I need to do much more actionscripting, that I know.

Loads ok on my pc box with both IE and firefox, also loads ok on my Mac using safari and firefox, both not a particularly on a fast connection. The drag info box (tattoos section) is a little unwieldy though, seems to release at will.

I think it would look better if you had the background colour the same as the swf also if you had it centred both horizontal and vertical

Looks a little bit booring and not that proffesional. In Flash CS3 you have great opportunity to work out nice graphics and animations without even using photoshop. I would recommend looking in to that!
