    Re: Need website opinions please

    I like your Flash version

    The second version has a ginormous background...big load times I would guess.

    The flash version I would like to see in an HTML version. I think it's clean, well organized nad easy to navigate

    Re: Need website opinions please

    I voted for the second one mainly because it's html. As far as appearance goes though, the first one definitely looks better. Make it in html and you're golden. I'm just biased against full flash websites.

    I agree, Flash layout on HTML page. I prefer HTML to Flash myself.

    Re: Need website opinions please

    I vote HTML. Sometimes flash is buggy (especially switching os's). HTML is pretty much guaranteed to work on anyones computer. :3
    I would shove some CSS in there to make it a little more aestetically pleasing

    Flash layout converted in html. I hate flash, its good for a few banners and whatnot but over all degrades a site IMO

    Re: Need website opinions please

    If someone is checking out the site on a handheld (iphone or smartphone) html will work great. When i go to a site with the option, I always pick html for some reason.
