Hi Paul.


It's a nice design.  On a 48k modem connection it was a bit slow to

animate; perhaps you could remove some tween frames?  Also, when returning

to the interface from the other pages, I didn't want to wait through the

animation again.  Two ways to avoid this: 1) If Frame Is Loaded can be used

in the first few frames to check if the movie's last frame has already

downloaded, in which case the movie can skip to the end of the intro

animation; or, 2) open the secondary pages in a new HTML window (if you do

this, I recommend letting folks know they can close the new window to

return, rather than having them wonder why their browser's back button

doesn't work).


Eventually it would be nice if you had a Flash option for your gallery-type

pages, since the interfaces would be faster after initial loading.
