Apparently Miklo my boy, you have never taken a class on marketing. I think they did well with the interface... or interphase as you call it. By the looks of it, their target audience are those planning on investing for futures trades. Do you know what this is? This demographic is typically composed of "older" people money wanting to invest in something with much credibility. I don't think a simpler site claiming "Hey... we are a new company... come invest with us" would have met the objective. As for "too many things going on, distracting from the main objective"... I don't understand what you mean... you click and you are fed the content about that button... you read... and it makes sense... what's so distracting?

Cab2k4, i can't agree more...
Checkit:
http://www.newstoday.com/docs/fo…And, vern/pancho, take a design course sometime. It'll teach you:
1. Less is more
2. The best frame is one that's invisible
3. Gimmicks are for kids
4. Drop shadows, lens flares, embossing, and 99.999% of all photoshop filters are for kids
5. know your audience: if all your sites look the same, you're designing for yourself, not them
6. designers should suppress their own style, but should be the conduits for clients' style. only illustrators, photographers, copywriters, 3D ARTISTS, and other such *amenities* to design should incorporate style.
7. leave your ego at home
8. god is in the details
and most importantly...
9. learn to deal with criticism
have a wonderful evening. :)
oh...and...

i think both sides of the good vs. bad seem to refuse to see the points the other side is making,
example:
"what's so distracting?"
- the fact that theres a 10 second preloader before you view 1 paragraph of text... in each section.
- the ambient bg sound that i cant turn off.
- and the voice, further drowning out the sweet sweet sounds of the CCR im already trying to listen to.
like i said before, if i actually wanted to read any of the content, i WOULD NOT go to the flash version... which is a flaw in the design of the site, IMHO.

neeko and CCR make me happy.

thieph01:::
opinions are like buttholes everybodies got one...youa re so right......that is why you cannot tell the difference between good design and bad design.... because you can ONLY TALK THROUGH YOUR ASSHOLE.

requests to ping whoswe.com time out...
weird.
- cab2k40
vern why did you take your site off your profile? just curious.
- thieph010
hahahahahahahaha nice! i only made that statement in an effort to point out that it doesnt matter what anyone says, as long as the guys who made this site are happy with it and the client is happy....anything else is irrelevant, i'm not dogging or personally insulting anyone here....
- vern0
this was the biggest waste of my time ever........
i will let the likes of you morons and haters talk more shit.i am outa here.
I WOULD LIKE TO SEE SOME WORK FROM ALL YOU GUYS SINCE YOU SEEM TO KNOW SOOOOOOO MUCH ABOUT DESIGN and are sooo ready to GIVE LECTURES TO DESIGN FIRMS THAT ARE MAKING IT IN THE INDUSTRY..... whereas; all you are freelancing , shit talkin FOOLS.....
later....
al you know how to do is talk shit about G-munk, 2A, whoswe, etc.....
i would like to see what you have done...since you have so much to say about design...
having a degree in art doesn't make you an artist. i haven't seen any of your sites on FWA, or FLASH FOREWARD... or any other place..
i feel sorry for you you all and how intimidated you get when someone asks you to support your shit talking.
later.... there will be no more from me today, so talk all the shit you can.
just like the good like gossip queens that you are.

dear goodness....can you say 'anger management!'

Lets not exaggerate here neeko.. I only counted maybe two seconds for the preloader. You know... im not here to give praise to any sites, but last time i checked... isnt that what a flash site was for?- to give a more animate presentation of what is being delivered?? How about letting go of that enormous mask of spite you are hiding behind and just face it... you're hatin'. Like i said before... I wonder how many people here actually know anything about marketing... or did some of you take your HTML classes and expected to prove to yourself "if you code it, they will come"
- lyrek0
er, vern, i wouldn't lump whoswe together with 2a...
different ballparks, buddy.
- thieph010
it doesnt even matter.......
- lyrek0
vern, don't sell yourself short, tho...
if you're creating the nulinegraphics.com site, it's showing some nice promise. truly. good composition. nice design sense.
let us know when you have more complete. great start!

"How about letting go of that enormous mask of spite you are hiding behind and just face it... you're hatin'."
I'm not hating dammit... seriously, ask anyone, I'm full of love... brimming over with love even.
I apoligize for the preloader time count exaggeration, but i think the point is still valid.
I may be guilty of being over critical of sites done by the bigger firms from time to time, but thats not the case here... and ive tried to back up every point ive made.
I think the site has definite marketting punch, i only think the "design" could be improved upon... i think my points have been more constructive than hateful...
overall (coding, 3d, etc) i think its a pretty good site, assuming the client is happy with it.
My work is out there for anyone to see. I have no long list of awards or accolades, but i also dont think you need to be the shit hottest designer on the planet to offer up your OPINION and/or critique of a site, especially if you back your opinions with explanations, which ive tried to do.

i wouldnt mind getting a 'gossip queen' tshirt made up.

It's funny how you don't need a reason to praise someone's work, yet you need credentials to give a critique.
