-Disable Javascript, Flash, and any other active content. Now try your website. It is good that you put a "Skip Intro" link on the intro page, but it is bad that on my machine I had to scroll to find it...

It just really feels like one of those overdone MySpace pages with everything on the page flashing and fading and moving...

I can see that a lot of time went into this, and I do like how professionally-done it looks. It's not my style, but I could roll with it if it fit in my browser.

Yeah I understand what you saying. The resolution was one of the hardest thing to decide, but the only reason we made it 1200 px wide was because 1000 px was just way too small. After looking through polls and votes, we believed that 1200px was the best resolution to use.
