Hi Penn,


It runs fine on my pokey P166. I like the design and the timing of the

piece.  Also the color scheme.


Some suggestions:


In the mouseover animations, put a Stop in the last frame of the animation,

so it vibrates once and then settles down. Sometimes less is more :-)


Don't know why your rounded rectangles are so jagged on the "rounded"

parts. If intentional, I don't think it's effective. Did you draw them in

Flash?


I would not have the right-hand (detail) text sink into place on

mouseclick. Just have it appear. It's a bit choppy when you animate that

much text at once, so the effect isn't great.
