Wow! That's K-RAD!  It took me a bit to figure out how to get around though.  After clicking all over for 5 minutes or so and then finally clicking the Help button I "figured it out".

I just want to know one thing though - I see you have a nice spraypaint cans theme going on, but where's the hidden easter-egg-button that lets me see her cans?

I don't get it.  A bunch of time consuming flash animations that require you to click a few times and still no useful information.  3 clicks before a skip intro button appears?  Give me a break.

What exactly are we supposed to see?  I don't get it...

Ditto.  
I have to assume the site is a work-in-progress.

It took me less than 30 seconds, to figure out this site requires to much time and effort to navigate.

Its a very pretty resume...but don't you think its a bit difficult to navigate...considering your target audience and all...

Assuming your target audience is someone who might pay you to make their product easily accessible...

Opinions Vary!  ;)

Oh my, yes, too much flash.  Yes, there is such a thing :)  You need a balance of something flashy, and something structured that you can navigate through.  I gave up after 20 seconds.

That website runs at one frame per second on an older computer.

Well I wont be as hash as the rest.. I was impressed, liked the intro, and thought it was different (a hard thing to do on the net anymore). Overall A+ for presentation and glitz...

But then the bad, yep... if its just to show what you can do... its spiffy, but if its sorta a general site..you do need some content ( arcade machine etc where good suggestions).. but if its a showcase site to show your talents...pretty spiffy...

Hey guys thanks for all your comments.

I think Clok nailed it. I basically wanted to showcase and impress. I understand that the site might not be for everyone (navigation) and that it runs pretty slow on slower machine.

Just went all out and made it a personal site. I got a corporate more user friendly site comming soon.

But thanks everyone all commments and criticizms.

Oh and Snake arecade pics comming real soon ;)
