Aliali, home and about us are the same text.

Once i leave home i can't get back unless i keep hitting the back button on my brouser. maybe add a home button on your other pages.

You are very vague about what kind of company. I did not get a whole lot out of the text. what kind od skills, technologies, or equip.
I did not see how yu differed from other repro houses. i did not realize what you company could do at all. I would like more substance in the text.

I did like the design of the page.

I think it's better, but here is how you can improve:

1) make the bgimage a tiny bit lighter, I like how you used it though.

2) the forward and back buttons are really blurred (nasty) looking. i don't think you need them.

3) only your main page has the black background on the top, the sub-pages still have blue, i would change this.

4) try this. get rid of the bottom frame. put the logo that is there in the blank space on the top frame. i think that would finish the page.

5) i just noticed something else. your bottom two images, the dig_choice.gif and square.gif are both resized smaller. never do this, it makes them look weird. i couldn't figure out what was wrong with them until now. resize them in your graphic editor or just make them again, smaller.

Ok...

I still get the white parts on the background.... dunno if ur gonna fix that..

there's one thing you could do....

take the fuzzy texture off the graphics.. like on the forward and backwards buttons? make the graphics a little clearer, then it'll fit in with the rest of the page...

i'd like to se what you'll be doing with the top frame as well... at the moment..navigating is a little confusing.. i dunno which frame to watch when i'm clicking a button, coz you got them swapping and changing around..

Make the background image a little lighter, coz its interfering with the text.

here's a thought!! whjy not place the stuff in the bottom frame up in the top with the other buttons, so your visitors' attention doesn't have to be split up from top to bottom... also you could make the top frma a liiiiittle bigger... to accomodate the mouseovers if you'll place it up there... they look kinda squished
If ur worried about space for all of it... shrink your nav buttons... they don't need to be that big..

have fun!

I've made some changes. I've still got to sort out the navigation bar on top, but try the newer version at

Thanks for the help!

I agree with kid,

i think tis better to design your page in 640x480, so you know its perfect for both res.

I use win98 and NT and in both i can see the white blocky thingies, i meant to ask you about it as well.

you see those lines you have to connect the top line with the bottom paragaph? the background of that image and the page bgrnd r not mixing

another thing... when ur designing in 640x480 make the text/table or whateva reach the edge of the screen, because you don't want it to be too small and squished for the rest of us

have fun!

OH!! even better.... why not visit my website, go to links, under'for webmasters'... download the AGwindowwatch--- it makes you view a particular page ur on in many differnet screen res with a simple click. check it out....it'll make ur job much easier..

I use IE5/Win 98/640x480 res.. If you want to make it for a lower res. just make the pages smaller. The smalles is 640x480 and it fits perfectly with a page width of 600 pixels. You can lower your res. by going into the control panel.

Flash Review only:
- this looks OK but you do not take full advantage of Flash animation.
- drop the 'this site is under construction' img.
- I'm not sure I like the onmouseover imgs, try a few different graphics.

Thanks alot.
I'll lose the little bricks and try and change a few other things.

If you can see those little white images that means the style sheet isn't working. PLease tell me which browser you are using.

Also I don't know how to make it suitable for lower res screens, please help.
Thanx again.

Here is how you can improve:

1) the site where you choose flash or non-flash is way too boring, spice it up!

Flash Site:

1) I like it, especially the drop down menus, but I would make the menu the whole width of the applet/flash image.

2) I would take away the think on the right that has text moving up and down vertical wise. It doesn't match the bgcolor of the flash image and it serves no purpose (also hard to read).

Non-Flash Page:

1) You could do alot better with just tables. I would get rid of the blocks because you they look dumb and you have to move over each one to see what it is (won't work with people who have js disabled).

2) you might be able to live with the top frame but the colors are different. the mouseover images are fine, but the part that has no text is blue, not black. I would change this.

3) I wouldn't do it so when you choose an option from the top menu that it reloads with sub-pages. I would have it load in the main page where you can choose sub-pages from.

4) whats up with all these small white images you have all over your page? if you trying to center the text why don't you just use the "center" option?

Not the server... but anyway.. i checked it out again... download time 18,4 secs.

its alright, but all those bricks reaaally gotta go.. rather have the a navbar with the words 'home' 'about' etc as images with mouseover effects..

1) because at present, viewing the site in 640x480 res. you can't see the bottom frame properly, neither cn you see the "back" and "forward" buttons, so THAT will be a waste of time.
2)people don't like to be feeling in the dark... they like to know and see CLEARLY, where they r about to go, so having an image with the words in it/a button, would be quite sufficient, and you could still have cool mouseover effects...there r more than enough ways to set out your site.

good luck.. i still like your flash site though.
