[gmh526]

well..... heres a site.
i beleive u guys saw the first version a while ago
demarest landing (http://gmhwebdesign.com/index11)

not done yet. needs polishing, splash page and stuff

what dayya think?

i know this is a difficult question to answer, but what would be a reasonable price to charge if it wasnt a charity site?

THat is a really nice site.

The buttons aren't really nice but.... I will look over that.

Maybe you sould integrate the contact to.
If your server provides PHP:

this is where you can learn to make a mail form REALLY easy.

Pretty impresive. What font did you use? Oh.. About the buttons, i don't knwo they look incomplete. I don't know how to explain, just look over it..Bye...

[gmh526]

thanks. i sorta agree about the buttons. they were originally made for a different site where they sorta worked into the theme.

as for the fonts, mostly arial with some of the fff atlantis trial version (available at fonts for flash) :)

the contact stuff is sorta tempporary. i think since i have a regular and printable version i could have one in the .swf and the other as html.
no, i dont think my server doesn't support php :( , but this isnt the permanent server. i still need a url and probably a different host that supports php..

i would (and demarest probably would too) definately like a contact form or maybe some sort of message board, thanks for the great link T-O

any other comments?

Its peaceful. I like it.

Its just a bit empty thats all.

[gmh526]

empty as in..........? lack of content or empty space or what?

[T-O]

I think 3page's is not allot.

Nice, however, the buttons to home, contact, etc.. get pretty skiddish at times with the bouncing and such. Also, it needs some ambiance music, you know, crickets and owls. Also, I hope the contact page is makeshift b/c I was enjoying the beauty and serenity of the site and then I was like "OMFG!!! WHAT THE HELL IS THAT?!?!?!"

Apart from those minor things, I love the site. Very very nice. How many fps? 60? I noticed the smooth tweens and the considerable loading time for such a small site.

[gmh526]

yeah, three pages isnt a lot, soon the contact stuff will be integrated. im just hesitant because the way i have the site set up is will be like 4 more transitions to do :d:

i know the buttons suck and are borderline schizophrenic. theyre on their way out.

as for the ambience, that would be nice, ill have to consider it. the file size is already a concern though....

the fps i think is 24 or 28.... maybe in the 30s. i honestly dont remember. the file size is so big cause i did a really bad job optimizing the photos, high quality and high res and very large.

well, thanks for the comments, ill work on that stuff, especially the buttons :)
