Re: FLASH: Re: ATTN: W. Townsend

[Michael@BTW]

I think his (Wayne's) site is amimed at who he says it is: people who want

their web sites to look more like their TV commercials. As bandwidth

increases, look for more of this as people will begin to 'shovel' their TV

branding onto the web, similar to the flood of brochureware sites that

arrived on the heals the gif/jpeg format. The Razorpane site looks like an

'in development' stab (blaster shot?:-) at folks who want their web site to

look more like a video game, and makes a reasonable first effort at it.


Wayne's comments regarding posting sites for check that are not ready for

prime time worries me more, after all the point of developing a site for

weeks/months and then posting it, only to hear critiques of already built

interface elements that will require reworking the site structure, is lost

on me. Checking a simple interface is certainly less time consuming than

checking out an entire site, after all;-). Perhaps we could have a general

policy of separating 'site checks' from 'interface or design checks' in the

subject header so that folks who only want to look at completed projects are

less put off by finding a mere design for their review?
