I'm with ben about the popup. Make it in the same window.
And make sure that all the content is preloaded before playing
and add loaders when loading asynchronously other content.

you should loose the "kinematic typography" looking intro

Two things that immediately throw me off:
- talking about yourself in third person
- inaccurate placement/spacing of various graphic elements

will anyone help me fix my problem and not just cry about popup windows?
- no - you don't need a fucking pop up window.jevad
- by telling you you shouldn't use pop-up windows, in a way, they kind of are helping you...duckseason

3 to 4 windows just to see your work? Is there a reason?

I'm sure you can find the appropriate AS somewhere for making pop-up windows (God knows, even have made those in the past - and I'm really pathetic in Flash)... but there seem to be a general consensus among the people giving you feedback, that pop-up windows are disruptive to the user experience. Since posted your site on here to get some comments, maybe you should really consider the very strong reactions to the pop-up window solution.
Why is it that you feel the pop-up is needed?

you don't need a popup....nor the 'enter' link...just load your page into your mainwindow and center the content in it...
get rid of qt video...do it flv and keep it in the same page....the junk floating thingy is ok, just sometimes it makes weird jumps, maybe the loop isn't done right or something...
...and well, last advice/critic, think about ppl that don't have flash (like on the iPhone), maybe offer some light alternative content option (html or pdf).

im getting rid of the pop up windows. all i wanted to know was if there were any alternatives that you would like to share. thanks everyone for the asshole remarks. i really enjoyed them.
- yeah, get rid of the intro page and let people see your content first. that'll help your seo too. now hop like a bunny.jaylarson

Decent work but the moving stuff at the bottom distracts from what you want people to look at.

Overall, I think the site shows that you have a good eye. I do agree with everyone on that pop-up thing. If possible, I'd put those large images in the portfolio rather than make users click to view them.
PS - One thing you need to know that they don't teach you in school: Asking for a crit on QBN is most certainly an exercise in futility. You may get one useful comment but you are guaranteed to get a lot of cunts offering no useful information and blasting everything.
- awwwwww. didums.skt
- you should try not being shite then.skt
- thanks. thats the best piece of advice ive gotten all day.stateoftheart00

really nice work for a student. the nav at the lower left doesn't pop though. put a 50% alpha rectangle behind it.
