it's nice, but i'm not a flash fan.
Also if scroll via the mousewheel, for each click of my wheel i see 1 project and 1/2. ...

everything in this page is doable without flash. You just need a jS framework like jQuery and your development time will be drastically reduced. nice job tho.

A firned of mine did the flash, hes not around now and my development skills are nott too good :(
Will have to keep this for now

looks good.. but then again i love form based design :) dont understand the need for it all to be in flash... just seems a weird thing to do and of course its got no seo but what do you expect from me lol.

Nice site, the first thing that threw me off was the loading scroll bar. Besides that just keep working on it I cant wait to see what you do next to it... its not that bad.

Not bad. The only thing I did not dig that much is that it almost seemed like some of iso50's work found their way into your portfolio, if ya know what I mean.

You got your mate to build the flash site for you ... Did you "DO" any of the work that is in your portfolio or did you just "Art Direct" it all too?
Well done to your flash mate, site works well. Might want to get some Meta Tags into the HTML so that people will find your site if you are using it as a portfolio. But if its just a url you give to people then you dont have to worry.
Do the videos/animations "turn off" when they are 'offscreen' ? I could see this page killing a mac or a pc with poor processors. grrrrrrrind.

do people forget to include url because they think its cute?
9 out of 10 are doing it now

How do I turn off the video when its off screen by the way? Or when the user isnt on that window anymore?

there are ways to make flash seo now. albeit, it still won't be the most seo you can get, but better than just a flash object.
also, one thing that I bothers me with this is that when you scroll down, then resize the window, the scrollbar jumps back to the very top of the page.
- I know there are a few things that I would like to fix with the flash, but hes out the country now dammit!Kiko

Some nice stuff there but not digging the site though and have always loathed the url...

I actually like the Flash Blog style interface. The scroll bar functionality is smooth, and I like the subtle touch of animation or video clips to support your portfolio.
If you have read any of my past responses to other designer's request for web crits, I usually go off on them because they use the same fucking stupid blog interface as everyone else and their mother. On the other hand you managed to strike a balance between UI simplicity with a touch of Flash interactivity, congrats!

I like it, but isn't that lay out kind of 2002? I'm not a designer though, just posting to annoy!

2002? its nothing special really, but now you've made me conscious :(
