even though I never get any love on this board, I thought I would share some of the fruits of my labor.

Well do you want constructive criticism or do you want your ass kissed? :P

Okay, well, I can try that.. heh.

First, here's what I don't like:

I'm not big on the way the flash menu is "ripped out" of the page... looks a little too sloppy for a professional feel. I would rather see the same background implemented in the body, perhaps with areas "ripped out" of THAT background (the textile one in the flash anim) for the content to be displayed therein.

I'm also not big on the border background.. the one on either side of the content. It doesn't really "match" the design as well as it could, and the green just seems to come out of no where. (ie, it's not featured anywhere else in the design to tie it together.)

My third complaint WOULD have been the fact that the content wasn't broken up onto multiple pages, but it seems like you've fixed that since the first time I viewed it. (Or maybe it wasn't like that before and I'm just losing it, who knows...)

Now then... here's what I DID like:

First, the monkeys kick ass. 'nuff said.

The thought balloon as you mouse over each section is a really nice touch. But.. I would like it even better if the balloon would resize to match the text length. If the text looked more "contained" within the bubble it would really help to convey the concept being worked towards. (ie, the idea that the monkey is thinking the mouse-over'd header.)

..and that's about it. Sorry the ass-kissing was not proportional to the constructive criticism... but I think the design could use a lot of work.

It is a really good start, don't get me wrong... I just think it could feel more collectively integrated. The flash is really obviously "separate" from the rest of the site... and there are definitely some subtle ways to tie it all together better.

So yeah... I like it, but I think it has a lot more potential hidden in it than you've let out so far.

Those are some good suggestions Jacques. I agree with the comment on the green and maroon borders. They contrast so much that my eye is drawn to the borders of the page more than the main menu - which is usually not what you want on a website. I think you have plenty of colors in the flash menu that you could use to create the borders with...this would unify the page more. If you want to have that high-contrast green/red thing going, I would put that near the text - where you want the eye to go is where you put the most contrast (value contrast, color contrast, etc.)

It does have a good feel to it though - keep going.
