Hi Andy.


The dark blue type on the black background is extremely hard to read.  The

sounds are a bit abrasive, expecially the snare hit. Try to find something

softer and also, don't steal music off albums, especially the Beatles : ),

you could be sued.  You are using bitmaps where vectors will work as well

(although it will take more work to do a nice extruded-text effect in Flash

than it does to do the same thing in Photoshop). The Reality Ink (love the

name!) logo is heading in the right direction in this respect, but see if

you can use hand-tracing to reduce the complexity of the image to about 15%

of what it is now -- it will look cleaner, and if you're doing a lot of

this imagery in a Flash movie it will really help keep file size down.

Fewer areas of fill, and the use of a gradient here and there, will help a lot.


keep it up, this is a good use of Flash.
