New Band Site

[jeffrey]

Howdy folks, hope your Turkey day was better than mine!

I recently finished a flash site for my band and would like as many people to test it as possible.

A few friends of mine have some trouble with fonts loading, but there is a script in the Flash that's supposed to load the fonts into the browser so it views properly.

It seems to be working for most everyone, but for about 15% of the people that view it, it's not.

Everything preloads before you enter the site, so it takes a minute or so to download. It is only 2.2mb in total, not too bad.

The link is in my sig, let me know what you think and if it does or doesn't work for you.

Thanks!

Quite a few hits from this forum, thanks for checking it out guys.

I'm guessing no one had an problems with it since no one's said so, that's good!

I found the font used on the site was VERY small - despite altering my browser settings they were nigh on impossible to read.

The look of the site was really good and I'll have a look later (after I've been to Amazon to finish my Xmas shopping!!!)

Small? Hrm. It's a Flash movie, so your browser can't change the font settings. The page itself is designed for 1024x768 or 1280x1024 resolutions. I use 1600x1200 resolution and it's still easily read by me.

What resolution are you running currently? These are the kinds of problems I need to hear about so I can iron them out!

Thanks again.

Jeffrey,

Cool looking site! You've got the interface for a very informative site about your band, nice job! I will say that the text was difficult for me to read, also. I'm running 1024x768 on a 17" monitor, and some of the letters overlap or are shrunken in on one another.

Hi Jeff,

I also find the fonts to be a little bit too small, besides that the site is awesome. And one more thing, I want pics of you with your Pets in action, not some "coming soon" crap

Working on that!

I think I sorted out the font issue, though you may have to scroll a tad vertically now.

Check it out and let me know if it's any better for ya!

Thanks!

Sorry for the delay in replying (ooopss sorry I thought I was in work!!)
On my sons cmputer running a 17" LCD screen at 1280x 1024 the font was slightly easier to read albeit a bit too small.

The computer I initailly viewed it on ran on a 15" LCD screen at a res of 800 x 600.

Hope this helps.
