    That fine woman is distracting.

    The site is actually a fairly average Flash site, but because she’s the first image that greets you, the site ends up looking much better than it really is.

    (Yes, I typed this out on notepad first - had to look away to be more objective!)

    I’d like to see some of your work ‘dudeydudedude’ since you seem to be so critical of others work and no, I am not the designer of any of the sites you are putting down

    I actually don’t mind you at all dudeydude man. I don’t understand why people get so worked up by you. You don’t bother me, as I enjoy it when people actually get their opinions out there. It helps the rest of us create better designs when we read the opinions of others. It’s a great way to find out what design trends can stand the test of time, and those that are just a “flash in the pan”.

    About this site’s design - I can appreciate the work that went into this. The girl is a bit distracting (in a good way). I’m going to have to give it a second, more thorough look when I get some more time however.

    @Spring - Cheers. I’ve just resigned myself to ignoring those who are just going to post off-topic remarks (e.g. about me not about the site), as it’s really counter productive and a waste of everyone’s time if I “take the bait” and try to defend myself.

    That sounds like a good policy to me! ;)
    I noticed that you popped into my site. I hope you weren’t expecting anything flashy - I keep it minimal, tight and valid. (If you dig around though, you’ll find some bells and whistles..)
    Thanks for the visit! I wouldn’t mind a little c&c, so if you get some time, feel free to shoot me an email.

    I tried to check this one out again, but it seems like the bandwidth limit has been exceeded - The site is down.

    Finally got to check this out. It achieves what it sets out to do - it makes me want to look around. It sets a nice tone with the music and visual flair. I’m not a fan of music on websites so I wouldn’t have done it, but smart move giving us the option to turn it off. I can dig it. Well done!

    I actually don’t mind this site. Nice and simpily design with enough happening to keep you interested. But I do not like the typography choosen, (while not in english…I hope) it is a very hard font to read on the menu and sub-pages.

    @PIC

    I concur. The text is very difficult to read.

    The site isn’t bad, don’t misinterpret me, but it’s not outright fantastic either. IMHO, it’s just “ok, looks nice”, but I’ve seen a number of Flash sites with practically the same style, and so there seems to be a lack of unique appeal for my tastes.

    I’m getting sick of people whinging at dudeydude, he’s commenting on the sites, isn’t that what the comment box is for??? Who cares what his work is like, his opinions are usually pretty valid

    Hello everyone!. I want to ask to the creator of the site the name of the artist in the list of songs that you put in there. They’re very nice and relaxing. I like them but I don’t know them. Thank you. The design is very delicate even though is making with a cuttings of trees and other things that maybe in other circumstances could be had a rough and crude look. I like your job. Congrats. Sorry if I dont write very well, I’m Latin girl.
