I changed alot of stuff around a bit. Got rid of flash on the site, made it Valid HTML 4.01 Transitional, used more css. And it looks cooler now. I was wondering if someone wanted to review it.

I didn't get rid of the splash page though, but I changed it.

Well, I personally don't like it that much. I don't know.... There's just something about it. maybe it's the images, or colors... Or maybe it just seems a little 'crammed' together. Like you could space things out just a bit more. Use more of the webpage space. It seems like to me it is all in one little area(the content), and it feels crammed, or bunched up.

I didn't see the site before when it was flash, so I can't compare.

You have some nice effects and scripts on there though. I'll just say good job and walk away....

Hi -
Slow, awkward, difficult - why am I getting Certificate info. just to visit it?
The graphics have potential but way too many background images to suit me.
Color scheme is okay, but overall pretty confusing...

that doesn't make sense that you're getting certificate info. Unless you're going to a page that's not open to the public (legendarylair.com/cpanel).

I got certificate info on the "home" page. Broken picture in "work". Couple typos on that page as well. (...nicely done websites...)(...a lot... needs a space) I don't know how much work you'll get with something like "My avatar sucks and so do you" on your website.

Sorry, it's a random picture that someone submitted.

The only size browser it looks good in is 1024X768. If your browser is larger everything stays to the left, if you open a smaller browser it all sits on the right. You need to either set it to be against the left side or figure out how to center it no matter what size the browser is.

Still scary.

However, I liked the old site better. Like Sup3rkirby mentioned, this one looks less organized.

The scrolling section on the left isn't as important as your navigation menu - I suggest you switch the two. And, if you're really serious about design, you'll nix the whole scroll thing. It looks like television credits.

The navigation menu - red text on the fly-swatter grid - is a little hard to read. I'd get rid of the grid.

Keep pluggin' away -

why is the content all the way on the right, put a margin on both sides say 30px so your stuff is centred

When you design a page, you need to check it out in different sizes, as well as different browsers.
