I don't think this will make me happy visiting if you won't be making it convenient for all to visit, surf and go again easily. That should be the first review for you. Make your website accessible to all.

Cheers!

What I think? Considering I am used to flash sites where I click a link (in ur case, in the nav section) and I get another page, without the page being refreshed, I think you are going against the norm. Then again, I don't do flash so maybe I have a whole lot more to learn wink
Re: I Redesigned My Site! Wacha Think? by Neptune(m): 4:41pm On Mar 16, 2009
yeah, i thought of that. thing is if i put it all in one flash file it might take much longer to load


ominipotens, the site is very accessible. have u tired opening it?
Re: I Redesigned My Site! Wacha Think? by WebMonk(m): 5:00pm On Mar 16, 2009
I rarely do this, but I'll say your site rocks.

lovely clean layout. the only issue i have is the navbar text on its side. it's more legible if it's swapped horizontally. My opinion.
Re: I Redesigned My Site! Wacha Think? by yawatide(f): 5:17pm On Mar 16, 2009
no problem neptune. It's your site cool

Question though from a flash dunce grin:
If you reload a different page each time, does that mean you get to include a different flash movie per page? If so, is it more efficient to do that as opposed to building everything into one movie, your considerations above aside (which you could avoid maybe a lil by shaving off a few framesets. Mind u again, I am not into flash)?
Re: I Redesigned My Site! Wacha Think? by Neptune(m): 7:35pm On Mar 16, 2009
thanks webmonk. the whole filp thing is kinda part of the whole creative look. but since the pages load differently i could add another nav bar, somewhere.



@ yawa-ti-de

thing is, the innitial plan was to have everything on a page. like it's normally done (which i do). let me just answer you question. there are mostly different flash movies on a page. and yes, its more efficient to have everything into one movie. but taking into consideration th people who view the site (or most of them), with dail ups and what have you. i think its more efficient to have different movies on different pages (in that case). rather than a percentage preloader that takes forever to get to 100. the good thing about it is you get to see somthing. lol.
i totally get you though. maybe i'll just have one for high bandwith and one for low bandwith.
Re: I Redesigned My Site! Wacha Think? by ola4(m): 7:39pm On Mar 16, 2009
Your site look nice and neat though i have some comment, you need to make your fonts legible  like the "blog, your phone number and email address. You may also need to find a way of presenting your "services" in order, i cant seems to find that. Your "About us page is showing something similar to service but i think you need to bullet out your service or create a separate page for people to read.  
Nice job
cheers
Re: I Redesigned My Site! Wacha Think? by yawatide(f): 7:56pm On Mar 16, 2009
yeah it makes total sense neptune. tis a pity that cos of our poor infrastructure, many web users are denied a superior user experience.

Hopefully, it will improve one day, we can only hope and that most importantly, it doesn't happen just when we are about to retire, make we follow chop small wink
Re: I Redesigned My Site! Wacha Think? by Neptune(m): 8:04pm On Mar 16, 2009

Re: I Redesigned My Site! Wacha Think? by yawatide(f): 9:32pm On Mar 16, 2009
segsa,

I think what I meant to say is that Flash, when done badly, is bad and not that flash as a whole is bad wink

If I said it the way you understand, I apologize.
Re: I Redesigned My Site! Wacha Think? by segsalerty(m): 3:19am On Mar 17, 2009

Re: I Redesigned My Site! Wacha Think? by kokorunna(m): 2:37pm On Mar 17, 2009
Am using a T1 broadband and the site is taking too long to load, do something about the time frame its takes to load. sad

Re: I Redesigned My Site! Wacha Think? by smartsoft(m): 3:20pm On Mar 17, 2009
you might want to look at it at this point, really now am using a friend laptop to view your site and it's telling me that FLASH REQUIRED, which really sucks. if it were a company that ppl need to gets info from what happens not to talk of someone who is not a computer litrate huh ? just my own view ooo have not seen the whole thing sha, when i get on my own LAP, i can continue, nice and good colour combination at first page.
Re: I Redesigned My Site! Wacha Think? by Neptune(m): 3:52pm On Mar 17, 2009
em, smartsoft, i dont really get ur comment. what sucks about the flash required? it's just there to tell you if you dont have flash player installed on ur browser, u cant view the site. and if it were a company that ppl need to get information from, there's a phone number right above the flash required text.

just so i get you right, what exactly are you complaining about?
Re: I Redesigned My Site! Wacha Think? by segsalerty(m): 4:03pm On Mar 17, 2009
Uhmmm,
Re: I Redesigned My Site! Wacha Think? by OmniPotens(m): 5:09pm On Mar 17, 2009
I think what he is trying to say is that people who are not learned enough as to install their flash players themselves might miss seeing what your website has in stock. Another is the patience to wait for it to download then install the plugin before they can view your site. I hope I've stressed smartsoft's point a little further?
Re: I Redesigned My Site! Wacha Think? by Neptune(m): 6:05pm On Mar 17, 2009
i really dont know how to answer that, if that's what he means. the best i can say to that comment is, [size=20pt]it's 2009[/size]. i mean, omnipotens. think about it. if there are people that are not learned enough as to install their flash players themselves (which comes with every browser nowadays), they dont really need my services. it sounds harsh but it's very true. i mean have you really thought about that? that comment really amazes me men, except he means something else. i have this wierd smile on my face right now.
Re: I Redesigned My Site! Wacha Think? by yawatide(f): 6:13pm On Mar 17, 2009
I am actually surprised by the "flash required" comment. Reason - Last I read, 96% of browsers come with flash installed. This 96% by the way is more than the %age of those with javascript enabled. I am curious to know what browser this is cos I haven't heard this in a long time.

Neptune, don't be so harsh now tongue

Just update your site to include a flash sniffer, in javascript that will:
1) Write to the page that they need flash to continue AND
2) provide a link to where they can get it.

Shouldn't be that bad wink
Re: I Redesigned My Site! Wacha Think? by Neptune(m): 9:06pm On Mar 17, 2009
sorry oh, did'nt mean to sound harsh. i guess i should include a flash sniffer ASAP. thanks.
