ok here is brutal.
don't like the color scheme, typefaces and shape. functionality looks like something from 1994.
sorry, you asked

use a publishing system like movabletype to keep your shit updated

actually, I love it, you have a command over those dulcet shades that I totally lack, so fair play.
Easily updatable ?
Cobble together some php forms to update MySQL and then drag that out again as XML, send it to Flash, parse, display...
Hrmm, well its simple in theory...

i dont like the design terribly either of the site, i think you could be simpler. also id opt to rock it in html vs. flash unless you think you are going to do something monumental with flash, quicker load the better....

colors, stlye and kill the music

your work is lovely, id rather just see your work not enclosed by tables and such, use the browser as the frame.... bigger / simpler

make it simpler and cleaner. i love the pre-loader though. your work is really great tara :)

personally, I've always liked your site... as someone mentioned - nice shades and colour. stands out from typical websites.
i don't, however, like mystery-meat navigation - this really jars with the authenticity of your style, makes it awkward to appreciate your content. You could also bring out the typography a little more.
I think you could stick to simple html templates for your content - with a little planning, you could keep to a simple template and re-hash manually.
it'll be a shame to see it go, tho :)

ya - i think i am going to just do it in h tml and leave all the effingaround in flash for my personal site

i think im gonna just strip it down...

Kill the music.
Besides that you know you really need to think outside the box. Where's the "pop" and "sizzle"? What metatrend is it trying to reach? Are we narrowcasting here?
*Snicker*
Sorry just got out of a marketing meeting and wanted to kill someone.
Seriously kill the music.
And give away an iPod shuffle or something...

bigger + cleaner = agreed

I'd go for MovableType or something like that for updates, as someone already suggested.
