RE: Only one reply? I need critiques

Okay. Okay. A critique on:  http://www.sequent.com/insync/

I liked the splash cover, but I personally would use a different web
background to make the cover stand out a bit more, it was all too muted for
my taste. Maybe just a shade or two darker/lighter??

The sub text under each of the headers on the left was also a bit too dark
and small to read. (1024 x 768 24bit here). The page loaded INSTANTLY. And I
do mean INSTANTLY. Maybe it's my cablemodem connection, maybe it's just your
great use of optimized graphics (I tend to believe the latter).

I did not like the short little scroll that had to take place to see the
rest of the text at the bottom of the page. Maybe place the headers in two
columns instead of one...??

I liked the "INSYNC" and "visions...." effect at the top of each page, but
maybe less is more here. Maybe key it to a mouse over on the left side menu
and use FLASH in a frame instead of JavaScript... That's what I might do,
since Flash also supports a Java player as well.

Overall, I felt it was very professionally done (but can the fuzziness on
the white lettered menus go away)? Was this anti-aliased with anything
first? It's a bit small and fuzzy on my 17" Philips monitor (with ATI
All-in-Wonder Pro 8MB card).

Subject: Only one reply? I need critiques


Hello all,
		One reply?  Is this a critique list?  Pardon me for being
perhaps a bit rude, but I subscribed to this list to get some of my projects
critiqued and to critique a few projects of other developers.   Thus far I
have received only one, yes, one critique (thank you Chris Barnsley!)..  I
would appreciate a little more feedback from the rest of you.  I don't
expect everyone to critique the site, in fact just a short "it looks great!"
or "nice page" is fine (yes, negative feedback is good too).  So, please,
spare a second of your time and go to http://www.sequent.com/insync/ and
send me a comment.. you don't need to spend all day replying, any form of a
response is appreciated.

Thanks again,
		Nick
