I suspect 250 kb for a page isn't going to make everyone in dialupville happy. It does take quite a while and some people will just switch off. 2. It breaks very badly in Op6. A lot of stuff just isn't there (including your News section). 3. I would counsel against using Flash in such an extensive way unless you've got a HTML alternative. 4. All the windows seem to small and scrolling the mission window down (which, at least for me, is showing 2 or 3 lines and that doesn't make for comfortable reading) is a tricky business. 5. The scrollers are tricky and it isn't clear when you've reached the bottom of the scrolling area so it leaves one clicking on the button wondering if something should be happening. 6. Some of the buttons bring up screens with no content so it is tricky trying to work out if I'm waiting for something to happen or not. 7. In the skills section you have Operating systems and then it goes into what looks like a list of your interests which seems to merge with what could be a list of hardware you can use (it ends with photo copy machine. You need to make the sections in this window clearer to avoid confusion. Overall it looks good in IE6 but fails badly in Op6 (I haven't checked with other browsers). If this is supposed to be a window on your work, so that potential employers can see it perhaps, than you need to make sure that everyone can visit it (like people not using IE with the latest Flash plugins) or you could be shooting yourself in the foot. I'd also like to see you make all the panels or windows bigger - I would suggest having some kind of feature whereby you only have one main screen which you can toggle between About you, News, Portfolio. You could also get more screen space by getting rid of, reducing or incorporating the melstudios logo on the left (it leaves a lo of unused space below it). I think you've made a good start and you have a strong look and good colours, however, the general interface could do with improving (also work on those scrollers) and you should test in all major browsers (the Big Three and NS4.x) and make sure there is a HTML alternative. Keep up the good work. Emps Loading...
