    Question about website

    This is for my Dad's business' site Bluemoongraphics.ca

    Do you guys think we should add some sort of prompt to click on the moons to view the individual pages? I know that all the MURCers would be able to figure out to click on em, but I dunno about the average Joe computer user.

    i think you just need to make them highlight on mouse over... that should do the trick

      It's OK, since it says under moons, where the links go.

      Otherwise marketing agencies tend to be creative and have less obvious web sites, which is IMO OK, as long as it's not taken too far (a la mistery meat navigation - unmarked buttons, which is not the case here, or too bloated/slow sites, which again is not the case here).

      My observations:
      - moons should perhaps be different
      - does it work without flash (non-flash version)
      - animations are a bit too slow, if you want to just go to contacts)

          You have a Flash website with no alternative text of any kind. You've instantly lost my business

            Wombat has a good point. There are a few people (like those who surf using SOFAsurf, or PocketPC surfing) who can't and will never see anything Java or Flash, so having an html alternative might be a good idea.

            Also, SpiralDragon's idea would be best, so I third what SD says.

              yeah yeah I know, html is in the works, its not all done yet. Calm down.
              I think the mouseovers would probably be good, possibly a shadow on the moon.

                I dont like the way that only the individual letters are clickable rather than the whole text.

                    A quick intro high lighting the moons (each in order) bringing notice to them would to the job but with a mouse over as well it would cover all your bases.
