Johnny,
Nice website
I don't know anything about building web pages or how difficult it is.

The intro is cool......I would run a background design with the pics and have each one stay up a couple of seconds longer. Oh and maybe have the pics fade in. that would be cool.

I agree, a little longer hold on the text and photos would be nice, but it's quite nice as it is.
Except... props doesn't have an apostrophe s, (you have it as 'prop's'), and apparel is spelled... well, as I just spelled it. Not apperal.
I love your site and I HATE being a smart-arsed spelling guy but I've always believed that proper grammar and spelling is extraordinarily important if you want to get your message across most efficiently.

Thanks guys for the input, im still trying to figure out how to do it.
Thanks for the spelling corrections, I not the best speller, I should really start checking it.

form the wonderful world of dial up. LOL OK here's what I got. First a white screen with your logo on top. Then a real brief viewing of one prop. The next picture when by so fast I couldn't tell ya what it was. Then some wording literally flashed by.( I guess that's what they me by flash/ LOL) Then one more picture. This was a cool looking head sticking out of a ?coffin? It looked like wood. This picture stuck around the longest. I'd say the whole thing lasted about 40 seconds form the white screen to your home page. And that's the news from the wonderful world of dial-up. LOL

I know if I hit the back button and reviewed your entro I would have eventually seen it all. But as far as I could tell what you did worked just fine. Great work Johnny933. Cool entro to your web site.

Putrid, thanks for the input. Im still learning and trying. I think i'll try and delay the pics and fade them in n out and add some more stuff like sound and lightning flashing if I can figure it out.

Dude! My lousy dial up and phone lines here make it hard for me to view flash and vids. More than likely it's the 1940's phone lines and not your talent and skill at fault. Looking forward to seeing ( ok trying to see. LOL ) what you come up with next.

i cannot past judgement on someone better that as more knowledge then me to do a flash web page cause i have no clue how to do that lol

you did a good job , same comments as the others on what to improve ...

continue your good work, i am sure once you get the hang of it you'll want to had and improve it all the time

If you would like some advise or help on how to do things in flash, I would be more than happy to help out. I work quite a bit with flash in my profession.

I agree, it would be nice if the pictures stayed up between 3-5 seconds. And can you skip the "hit ENTER to enter" page, and go directly to the site? It's kind of an extra step. Oh, and your counter reads, "Only -30 days, -14 hours, -22 minutes, and -55 seconds left until HALLOWEEN!" Might wanna get that checked out. Awesome site otherwise - keep up the good work!
