My website, looky!

[Phoenix-TB]

Alright, so I read the rules and saw that people are doing this. I hope I am allowed too..

Anyway, I am making a website and I was hoping to have some people say what they think about it. It might take 10 seconds to load so be patient.

Do you mean the actual animation (it moving) or the way it is drawn?

[EvanHayes]

i just think it needs color because outlines with the same background everywhere are just somewhat unappealing to the eyes. but like i said thats just me,the art is fine it just needs color.

Would the only way to thicken the lines is to re-draw the pictures with the lines thicken? I tried flashes ink bottle tool, but it looks... Weird.

Okay, I try something maybe post it here and see what you think :). Thanks for the suggestion.

[EvanHayes]

no i mean color in the animations,not the lines. because the animation is beautiful, but its just too...white

How would I make it less confusing? Would I add, words or a menu somewhere on the left of the screen?

no no not in the flash movies itself in the actual menu just add some depth, by that i mean thicker lines and gradient fills, or color, more color would be good

Well the other guy's problem was that he had to many things applications running. I will try to see why it's making the browser crash...

Do bitmaps lower or raise the .swf size (not .fla size just .swf size)?

Well, I updated it again, to make it more user friendly. If anyone wants to look at it they can. Same link,
