My new SE:IV Website!
Yes, the Aa Turam Empire now has an official fledgling website!
For any who have not yet seen it, I highly recommend Balthazer Online ( www.profx.us) for building quick and easy Flash Websites. I guarantee you'll get goosebumps and little specks of froth on your cheeks just watching the demo on the front page and imagining the possibilities!!
Please go and check it out at http://www.geocities.com/waknatious1/ and let me know what y'all think so far. I've built this as practice for my company website.

Oh god... when will the flash stop?  Vive l'HTML! Seriously though, why must planets spin into place? Ugh... flashing... pulsating...  |

Re: My new SE:IV Website!
OK point taken!
Just playing with the possibilities...... oh and important question (from what Balthazer tells me): With what speed connection were you viewing the site? Broadband or dialup? It's supposed to shunt/unshunt some things automatically. I have about a 400K connection and none of the Flash is "jittery" or "disconcerting".

I have cable... the site is definitely very jittery and disconcerting. It looks like it was designed for MTV kids with ADD...  Flash is ok in small doses, but stuff like the planet images randomly spinning and chaning to different types while loading, the ship image growing fuzzy periodically, the background randomly lighting up in various places, the background on the "disengage fantasy generator" link having rectangles grow and shrink, and weird circles moving about, are all very unprofessional. Backgrounds should be static. Images should not load with cheesey "wipes," and should not change randomly after loading... The vast majority of web sites are more or less "static" for a good reason... |

Yes, yes it is.
And one Last thing... unskippable intros for a site are evil. No doubt about it...  |

Re: My new SE:IV Website!
Ouch my *** hurts. I'm going to bed now. I'll let this run for a bit and play with relevant suggestions tomorrow.
