a lot of stuff to fix still.....

[gmh526]

also, any suggestions on what i should put in the giant empty blue pox on the home page are welcome

I like it.

I like the transitions between sections.

I'm not sure about the giant zooming in G in teh beginning after the load. I also am not fond of the effect when you mouse over your name. I think it would be a nice touch to have the words do something, but the circular movement just doesn't seem polished.

Also the text on the about me page side bar is not clear. I think the font outline is embeded or something.

Otherwise looks good to me.

im not too sure about the g thing either. the name effect is also sorta temp.

as for the about me side text, you cant embed dynamic text rotated 90 degrees in flash, so i had to brake it and i came out wierd. any method to cure this?

other comments?

Are you using a pixel font or is that just arial?

If it's arial, don't embed it.

[gmh526]

the side bar text is a pixel font FFF atlantis i believe
the other font is ariel, and its embeded at size ten. why shouldnt i do that?

[DariusMonsef]

If it's arial. No need to embed. Well most people will have it. I'm not 100% sure on any of this font blurriness thing as I spent hours the other day messing with fonts and trying to get them to appear crisp.

What I found was that arial does not need to be embeded.

Cheers

ok. i just always have embeded it cus i thought it looked better. maybe not

any other comments?

A tip to all, don't embed pixel fonts. they look crisper not embeded.

I like your site, its is very clean and simple. My only tip is make it so that your window things open on a click and disapear on a second click as opposed to mouseover, mouse out.

[gmh526]

ill keep in mind the pixel font tip, though i thought that pixel fonts had to be embeded bc not every has them, though im probably wrong on that.

once again u guys are nicer than the folks over at flashkit :)

get rid of that rollover effect on "hackeling" that just makes the site look look tacky in comparison with the rest of the design. I like the transitions though, they are original.
