you need to start off with the food not the hot chic. I had no idea it was for yogurt

hey check out this cool site! yay! look at me!

although i see your point, i think its cooler than the pinkberry site. i see this site as more brand experience and lifestyle as opposed to just yogurt. i bet nobody finds this site without being sent there after either being in the store or by word of mouth about the product. what about all the ads today that show hot chicks or are funny, and you dont know what the hell they are selling till the end?

yes, the brand experience. do tell

I like it a lot. The colors, the grid, the logo—all very nice. I really like the way the gallery (for events) works too.

i was unaware that posting your own work on this site was frowned upon. douche bags.

I think someone beat you to it.

and your 2girls link is really cool. its transitions are really fast.

wow. i was unaware the the same 5 people made all the comments on this site. i guess in some crazy out of this world idea i came up with there would be other people that would be online at different times that i could get feedback from that didnt see the site the last time it posted.

three posts, same site?
Well, the visual design is really nice and fits very well with the product. The colors are especially great... inspired by the nice photos. I am certain this site was stunning in mock ups.
However, like a lot of flash sites, the navigation is a bit odd. Not that a menu on the left is all that strange but that I click and all of this stuff rolls by and I think "hey, that looked interesting" but wasn't sure what it was. Also, I just get little bits of info on each page, I wouldn't mind scrolling a bit for a little more. Clicking involves me choosing and choosing involves thinking and commitment. Scrolling doesn't ask so much. In other words, too many sections for too little info and much of the info that is there is marketing fluff anyway.
As for the transitions, they drag a bit at the end as they approach the stopping point making the text jumpy. Go look at group94 for smooth animated transitions.
That said, it is nicer that the other 90% of the web and better than 99% of the work I do. I found that I wasn't really reading it but just flipping through because the colors and design really are that compelling.

^ What I would have said if I wasn’t too busy being a smart-arse.
- Yeah, that was a good, honest review. I have to agree about the "hey, that looked interesting" part.dog_opus
- yep, i've wondered about that. i hoped that people would instinctivly try and click on the thing that went by and find the hidden nav that lets you scroll through the whole sitegraphicart21

finally.
click at the bottom of each page real quick. you can scroll through the whole site frame by frame if you find it. maybe that should be more obvious?

and you're right. the content is about yogurt, which nobody cares about. so we had a copywriter make it kinda smart ass and witty that would be picked up on by upper class mom's and health conscience hipsters. most dudes i show it to think the animation is cool but that its overall gay, but cool for what it is meant for. basically, if you are in to health stuff and like yogurt, then you are gonna pick the store that makes you feel the coolest by going there. check out www.pinkberry.com, and www.redmango.com. those are the main competitors. hopefully they come across as really different from orangecup site.

oh wheee!! i just noticed the dots that appear in the orange on the right hand side. That's fun!

and the reason its posted 3 times is cause i cant get anybody to give me anything but a smart ass comment since its not about video games, html secrets, or wife swapping.
