I think it looks good. Good job.

Gotta agree with topside 100% - short deadline or long deadline. Not a fan of this kinda photoshop work. And adding filmgrain and lil filmy threads? There's gotta be a reason to do that other than - I saw it somewhere else or I grabbed it at flashkit.
Probably rubs me the wronag way when someone posts "I did a bunch of slick layouts" Not a fan.

are you looking for feedback?
overall i'd say the texture work looks pretty amateur. the main money texture looks like you just multiplied some crumpled paper on a tan canvas. the drip stain looks thrown on -- it doesn't blend well at all.
the falling money in "the tour" section looks bizarrely out of place. the rain is falling in fast forward, but the money is falling in slow motion? also the movement on the money is pretty hokey.
i don't get the old-style scratchy film effect in some of the sections either.
the swinging light in "the man" page looks very nice, but the clouds and the window in the upper left look way out of place.
i like the panning idea in "the register" section, but it wasn't executed properly. the image slightly shifts as it pans down, and there's a paper texture to the right that all the sudden disappears when it pans down. the lens flare looks very poorly done too.
the money in the extras page looks like it's being shot out of a paper feeder and some of the elements in the foreground are very washed out. you did a great job on the lighting in the previous section why not do the same here?
you could probably link the large lloyd banks text back to the homepage as well. overall i'd say some of the html layouts could be spiced up a little more as well.
the characters look like they were blended pretty well into the scenes, but some aspects of the scenes themselves look out of place (like the giant courvoisier bottle the size of his head) and the ghostbusters style clouds.
sorry so long!

they never do. the only artists that end up with really nice sites are the artists that are personally really interested in the internet. otherwise its like "oh the record's coming out. i guess we should make a website, huh"
its hard to find someone who actually makes it a priority. i find its that way in a lot of industries though. movies are moving leaps and bounds with interesting marketing scemes online though. everybody else seems very 1999.

why you couldnt have skinned the buttons in flash? the pshop work on there is pretty amature... i apoligise if you didnt do it...

in the developer doc it reads: This site under NO circumstances will be built fully in flash.
they let fullerene do it for 50 cent and their content management system doesnt work well with it and some parts not at all. it's been a thorn in their side ever since. you'll never see an all flash site that come out of there in the near future.
- shellie0
cheap out on drop downs? what drop downs? they have a content management system and tight requirements and restrictions i have to work around. i couldnt really do anything about it.
and it was a 2.5 week turn around. (most of the time was eaten up by approvals) i didnt have a TON of time. that was the real issue with this site. i think they got quality considering the circumstances.
