No offense ateball, but I liked the old newspaper look of your site best.

Cool interview. I met him a couple of years ago, off beat guy for sure. Very careful of his use of words, and articulate as hell.

I had to change that a while back when the DAYGANG site was launched..it seems their designer couldn't come up with an original design and pretty much copied mine to a "T"
This one is only partially finished, I have some truly AWESOME artwork in production for it Axlish, I mean friggin awesome , check out the artists' site:

Jimifly has agreed to create some art specifically for my D-C.COM site, thats why the main page only has some text and none of the movie pages are active yet, I have to integrate all of it into the animations I have planned...keep checking it out periodically, I think you'll approve of this new version ....

Very cool stuff!

Although, if I may throw something out there ... at 1024X768, I'm almost squinting to read stuff ... perhaps consider a bigger pixel size for graphics and text? Just a suggestion, look awesome otherwise. :skull:

I'll give it a shot Cereval, the actual size of the page is 1024x768 so I'm surprised...
As I have written on the News page, I'm trying some different approaches using Flash 8, and input from you & other folks here helps a bit, in figuring out what seems to work and what doesn't .
I hope you enjoyed the interview though??

Try it now..

Of course! :D


Try it now..

Now it's extra jumbo! :) I'm not familiar with Flash (as I am with some other formats) so forgive me if this is a stupid question: but can flash generate region size based on user screen resolution or window size? For example, I can make a table in HTML take up 80% of the user's window size, that way I know it'll never be too big. I had to maximize my browser window to see your page. The text is the perfect size, but I have to scroll the menu frame if my window isn't full screen.

Perhaps make a few versions and have a resolution redirect at the entrance? Or maybe just a happy medium (a smidge smaller than now). :)

Just some thoughts, keep up the great work.

I'm trying to find that happy balance somewhere in the middle Cereval.
Thats why I make these posts, to get all you folks' input so I can fix anything I may have overlooked. I appreciate it immensely.
