Hi Vince,

I like your design.
The loading needs some ehancements.

Hi Ronald,

Thanks for your comments on my new website. I'm trying to earn something here in my community as a freelance using my graphic skills.



I'm ashamed at you because I messed with you last time. It was because my customer, the kanipaan messed up also. he's not paying. I owe you an apology.


You said my loading needs enhancement... here's the code for my loading...

var Xpos:Number = 0;
var Ypos:Number = 0;
var swf:MovieClip;
var loader:Loader = new Loader();

var defaultSWF:URLRequest = new URLRequest("swfs/home.swf");

loader.load(defaultSWF);
loader.x = Xpos;
loader.y = Ypos;
addChild(loader);
//////////////////////////////////////////////////

//Buttons Universal Function
function btnClick(event:MouseEvent):void{
   
   removeChild(loader);
   var newSWFRequest:URLRequest = new URLRequest("swfs/" + event.target.name + ".swf");
   loader.load(newSWFRequest);
   loader.x = Xpos;
   loader.y = Ypos;
   addChild(loader);
}

//Buttons Listeners
home.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, btnClick)
about.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, btnClick)
portfolio.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, btnClick)
guestbook.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, btnClick)
contact.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, btnClick)

what do you think? what enhancement could i make?

thanks,

vince

p.s. i could not find my old-db username and password so I created this new one.

propably the loaded content is too large, graphics larger then needed or alike.
It seems slow to me.

Dont worry about the past - apologies accepted.

after you are loading the stuff into the same spot, it might be useful using one loader, and only change the content.
Then you dont have to create the loader and maybe use less memory and processor time.

These are just ideas.

it's about a second to load each page or image in the portfolio using my internet at home in both my Mac and my PC. for me it's kindof not bad. this 1 sec is even after i refresh or clear my cache.
