FLASH: Re: OT: Under Construction

[James Cutts]

Hi Max


Thats fine.


But as a New Media design company we decided to put up some Flash...thought

it was a bit more interesting than a static message.


The date thing is personal preference. Since we had no idea when the site

would be up (it took a back seat due to other work) we skipped it.


Also our site is purely an on line portfolio and so there arent a great deal

of people on the edge of their seats waiting for it to go up.


However, in the right circumstances i thing your views are spot on.

Its just that not every client/site/job/market is the same.


Thanks for your views
