RE: FLASH: Kick ass Teddy Bear Torture site now up for final testing.

[Len Harrison]

Hey Mathew


'Tis fresh, mon. Few things to think about tho:


1) Mailbox should work as a mailto:. No way any normal moron like myself is

going to remember the email address long enough to use it, particularly

after torturing teddy.

2) Jump to the non-existent page at Xoom. Don't know where that was going.

If it was to an html page, I'd do it in another window or pop everything

into a frameset and keep the Flash going in a corner frame like a postage

stamp. Pull down a window in the top level or something with an appropriate

msg which when you click on it returns you to an unframed view at your

previous current frame. Might need to collect the current frames of all your

movie clips as well and stop them then restart each from there. Obviously

easiest to do in script. As it is, the page load fails and the back button

restarts the movie including the frame loading piece, which is very cool

first time round, BTW. Of course, if you're just using Xoom to park some

sound clips and there isn't supposed to be html there, forget this.

3) TV piece is totally UK. US folks haven't a clue on the slang you're using

(well some wouldn't). May be non-issue if your band stays on that side of

the pond. Would need some refitting for this one. Also possible that some of

the words used have different connotations over here (or maybe not).

4) Not sure how to resolve this one or if you care. But I'm playing the

movie projector and click on the torture chamber and go there before the

movie is done. That's the highlight or lowlight of the piece. After that I'm

not about to start the slide show again. I'm outta there. That's fine from a

design perspective but maybe not from the band's.

5) I'd look at tightening up the animations throughout the movie,

particularly the text transitions in the TV part and the slide show of the

band members. Less is more.


Like it a lot
