Re: Dom3minions.com awakens!
I pretty much hate flash. I have it blocked by default. Putting flash on a site gives it a 90% chance that I will never see any of the content.

Re: Dom3minions.com awakens!
Well I believe that everything has its pros and cons. If a site had a simple thing to say, basically an online commercial, then flash is perfect. But if it wants people to see what its offering without the sales pitch, then its a drawback. IMHO of course

That is why the best sites are comining php with flash. Flash logos, menus and some animations, and the real content comes in php.

Re: Dom3minions.com awakens!
I think use of flash must be limited to animation or online game in a site.
DHTML+ javascript with the use of dynamic request to the server can give a very good sensation to the user, and with low cost. I think flash is too heavy, IHMO.

Re: Dom3minions.com awakens!
Really like your new site Gandalf, and always liked your old site as well. As far as Flash goes, I hate it 99% of the time. For example, I used to pop over to the Total War home page to check for news on the series, but they recently upgraded "To The New-Look". I have dsl, but I have to wait for the animations to load before I can see the news. Give me content over Flash any day. (Keep it simple!)
Just my opinion.  |

Re: Dom3minions.com awakens!
Well Nerfix is handling the layout. The domain was just sitting there (like a dozen others I have). I appreciate the kick-in-the-ascii he has given the site. It will give me a place to attach all the insane things I will create for Dom3 that tends to make Johan shake his head and wonder about my stability.

Re: Dom3minions.com awakens!
The site is coming along great guys!
One suggestion is maybe an area which contains some screenshots... this can help lure new gamers.
