Flash is not a favorite of mine. I have clicked on skip intro(you don't have that option) hundreds of times.

As far as this one goes it's nice, but the transitions are painfully slow. That's fact.

The feel I got(music/images) was the 1940's? I'm not sure why your client wants to bring back that era of ad agencys to their clients. That's just my opinion.

Images on the site, after the intro, are awsome, great idea with the soil, ladder and light etc.

I really liked the bio screens. One thing, Michwel Wheeler's baby photo is clearly a girl. Was that supposed to be him? or did I miss a something? Bernie looks 12. :laugh: Give him a few days growth of beard and redo photo

The little bell ring is great.

Very nice logo.

Cheers

Thanks for the nice review. It's not a flash intro. :) It's a full flash presentation.

I hate to diss someones work but you asked.


I love flash.

This is boring to mee (typeing took too long).

The music was horrible.

The layout was ugly.

I am really sorry.

Steen.

I can appreciate the time and effort that went into it, for sure.

However, it takes an age to load, an age that might cause a consumer to click out.. Perhaps you can edit/cut some out.

The skip intro button needs to be permanently placed and visable.
Web users arent known for their patience!

If you intend it as an 'intro' thus being the first thing any visitor sees you run the risk of losing them.
If you make it a 'Click here for our Presentation !' kinda button on your home page then I think its perfect.

Looks great though!:wink:

As I said this isn't a website. Most people don't seem to understand that. It's a full guided presentation about a company. The market is an ad agency. The clipart symbolism is modern day services for retro prices.

I liked it although it's a bit lengthy but then again it's no website intro as you said.

Btw - what's the font used for the main text and headlines (looks it's the same just different sizes)?

Yeah thanks for understanding it isn't a website. The agency has a hand bound book that they send to potential clients with all of the information. The book costs around $10 per copy so they were looking for a cheaper alternative to reach the masses. We came with this solution and they really loved it. As for the fonts I know we used the same throughout most of it. I am not really sure as I am not the designer. :)

A bit too slow it seems. No need to provide the typewriter effect, just lay our the facts.

Check out one i did - http://www.siteoven.com
