Hey Wankers.

Jesus, I hope no one viewing it is on dial up...
Plenty of eye-candy, but the lo-res motion images detract from the overall quality of your site. It may behoove you to author a non-flash site as well. I know that ouur clients hate wading through lots of flash to get to content. But otherwise your site looks great! Keep up the good work.

Yeah if anyone is on dial up they don't need to see my site anyways. ;)

I've thought about redoing the videos the lens plays, I was going for a haggard look but i got in a rush and they don't turn out. I might redo those i'm not sure yet. I do 3D cgi and Flash programming so a boring html site doesn't really serve my purpose.

I block flash and java on my workstations.
My phone doesn't support them either.

Definitely looks pretty but it's like fucking my eyes with a strobe light. I always like the simple approach.

You're a creative in an ad agency right? For what you are going for, I think it's pretty awesome.

Looks fantastic man!

Something did make firefox crash though. I'll see if I can repeat it and report back.

*Edit*

Seems kinda random...but it happened again when I used your "graphic" back button from the videos section.

Weird! I'll look into it thanks man.

Matt, yeah I used to work at an agency until last month. 8 years of that crap and I finally gave it up. Now i'm at a creative studio in Oak park and I'm loving it. Feel like i finally have my life back. Maybe I can even work on my cars this year!
