Your animations rule!!!

rather than use "#" for the link, use "javascript:;" The hash will cause some browsers to jump to the top of the page....

in dreamweaver, select the image with the JS pop-up, and put 'javascript:;' in the link box. Should give you the cursor.

Get rid of that left/right scroll too. Keep it within a 800px width...

i'll add some roll over effects on the category icons. it's not quite clear where u can click etc..
i agree with what has been said on the gradient.. get rid of that
for tha animations (some of them are excellent btw.. ) can't you display them in the page.. there seems to be plenty of space..

thanks all of you for your advice- your all champs.
eventually it'll be a riot of animated gifs, transparent flash bits and roll overs but its a start....re. the animations- been fiddling round w' the size on media cleaner and they either seem to end up too crap (2mbish) or too big (12mb- is this too slow?) can anyone suggest an ideal setting to go for?

2Mb would still piss me off.... but my connection is shite.
It might be worth warning people of the size before they click it.

I find quicktime pro fantastique for producing small file sizes for vid/animation.

damn,
i like this a lot.
that raggedness gives it a special flavour. one shouldn't lose our own stuff to get similar to everybody else.
i would keep everything as is (at least for a while to see what happens), except for a little tunning on details that do not fit the browser too well.
1) there's no hand to point the category links nor any other evidence of an hyper-link. it took me a bit to figure there were pop-ups involved.
2) most of the pop-ups are too small to hold the pieces properly.
3) Not wanting to suggest anything really, i feel that all that empty right space on the left could take the works. you only need 2 frames to do this. + most users find pop-ups really annoying, and some of them even close it before they load.
that secretmid.mov is absolutely beautiful. i fell in love by the girl with the static camo!
